Default Those of us looking to buy or upgrade Nikon SLRs...

I finally got to my decision point to upgrade to the D90 (considered the D300s) over my D60, and was planning to do my purchase today. Then I found this on Nikon Rumors

Update: the rebate program will end on March 27th, 2010. The Nikon 70-300mm lens is also included with a $200.00 instant rebate.

On February 28th, 2010 Nikon will start a nice instant rebate program on the following lenses: Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8 VRII, Nikon 24-70mm f/2.8, Nikon 18-200mm VRII and the 24-120mm.

* Buy the 70-200mm with any SLR and get $400.00 instant rebate

* Buy the 24-70mm with any SLR and get $300 instant rebate

* Buy the 18-200mm VRII with any SLR and get $250.00 instant rebate

* Buy the 24-120mm with any SLR and get $200.00 instant rebate

There will be some other instant rebates for p&s Camera as well.

I assume that there will be a list of compatible SLR for that offer (I don’t think those rebates will be valid for the D3000 for example).


I can't vouch for the validity - but if waiting a few more days means a rebate, that might be worth consideration

Only if youre planning on getting any of those lenses with it. The 24-70 and 70-200 are up around $2000, the 18-200 is, IMO, not worth it's pricetag and the 24-120 is rubbish.
