Jacobs have a few Canon lenses heavily discounted to commemorate Canon's 50th anniversary of producing SLRs. The prices are allegedly valid until May 11th, but I don't know what will happen if they run out of stock before then. If this promotion is getting some sort of support from Canon, which seems possible to me, then we might want to be looking out for similar promotions at other retailers.
Anyway, Jacobs prices - including the 2.5% discount you get online with the LENS25 discount code - are:
EF 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS USM ..... £1267 (cheapest elsewhere £1400, mainstream price £1500-£1600)
EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM ..... £379 (cheapest elsewhere £419, mainstream price £425-£450)
EF-S 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 IS ..... £409 (cheapest elsewhere £439, mainstream price £450-£500)
EF 200mm f/2 L IS USM ..... £3900 (cheapest elsewhere £4310, mainstream price £5000)
(I've taken the "cheapest elsewhere" and "mainstream" prices from Camera Price Buster.)
Apologies for the delay in posting this, but I wanted to be sure I could get a couple of the 70-200s before they sold out!
