Holding out for a brilliant Canon Black Friday camera deal this year? Or perhaps a cheeky Cyber Monday camera deal on a Canon body or lens? Either way, we’ve got you covered.
We’re just six weeks away from Black Friday (23 November) and Cyber Monday (26 November) – two of the best opportunities in the retail calendar for bagging a real bargain on a new camera body, lens or accessory.
Last year, we saw some excellent savings on Canon gear – as well as some distinctly average offers. So here, we’ll be curating only the very best Black Friday Canon camera and lens deals, followed by the best Cyber Monday Canon camera and lens deals. That way, if you’re thinking about splashing some cash this November, you can be safe in the knowledge that you’re making a sound investment.
So what are we expecting to see this year in the way of Canon Black Friday and Cyber Monday camera deals? When can we expect to see the biggest savings? And which Canon models should you be looking out for in particular? We’ve got everything you need to know right here…
Black Friday and Cyber Monday Canon camera deals: what we expect to see
The million dollar question: which cameras will see the best Canon Black Friday deals? Well, one good clue comes from Canon itself. In the US, Canon is currently running deals on a number of DSLR, mirrorless and point-and-shoot models, including:

PowerShot SX530 HS: $249 (was $379.99)
Meanwhile, until Friday 17 October, Canon UK is offering cashback on a number of key products – all of which gives us a strong indication of the cameras and lenses Canon is happiest to discount, and the sort of savings we hope to see more of over Black Friday and Cyber Monday.

Black Friday and Cyber Monday Canon camera deals: when will they go live?
Last year, Canon launched a host of early Black Friday camera and lens deals on Sunday 19th November – five days ahead of the big day. With big retailers like Amazon starting to drip-feed their own Black Friday Canon camera deals ever earlier (in 2017 Amazon began dropping daily deals from the 17th November – 10 days before Black Friday), this is certainly a pattern we would expect to see again, with brands and other photography retailers forced into competing with Amazon.
If 2018 plays out in the same way as last year, we should see a selection of Black Friday Canon camera and lens deals on the Canon website from Sunday 18th November; and potentially on Amazon from Friday 16th November.
When it comes to the best Cyber Monday Canon camera and lens deals, we expect to see a lot of them drop from midnight on the day itself – with Amazon likely to launch Lightening deals throughout the Cyber Monday 24-hour period.
Where to find the best Black Friday Canon camera and lens deals in 2018
