As a photographer, I think the only thing better than a great camera is a bargain on a great camera – and spring price drops are bringing some of the best Canon camera deals that I’ve seen all year.

Using price trackers, I've scoured the deals to see which ones just look good and which ones are actually good. Cameras like the Canon EOS R50 V have dropped to the lowest price that I’ve seen yet, while a $500 discount on R5 Mark II is the best discount on the pro-grade camera that I’ve seen all year.

2026 may be young yet, but these deals are the best price drops that I’ve seen so far on Canon cameras.

Canon EOS R100 with kit lens
Save $100
Canon EOS R100 with kit lens: was $679 now $579 at Adorama

Discounts on Canon's most affordable mirrorless camera haven't been as prevalent since the tariff price changes, but a $100 discount is the best discount that I've seen for this budget camera this year. The R100's beginner-friendly controls and 24.1MP APS-C sensor are great for capturing family memories with something better than a smartphone without getting too complicated or expensive.

Canon EOS R50
Save $100
Canon EOS R50: was $779 now $679 at Adorama

If you plan on photographing moving subjects like pets or kids, the Canon EOS R50 is the better buy over the R100. The small price increase gets you a much faster 15fps burst and better performance on a similar 24.2MP APS-C sensor. Body-only, it's marked down to $679, but the bundle with a kit lens is also discounted at $799, including a free memory card and shoulder bag.

Canon PowerShot V1
Save $130
Canon PowerShot V1: was $1,029 now $899 at Adorama

This is the best price that I've seen this year for the Canon PowerShot V1, and it's just $10 more than the lowest-ever price. The PowerShot V1 is an advanced compact camera with a 1.4-inch sensor and a bright lens with 3.1x zoom. It's more video-focused than the popular G7 X Mark III, but it's a solid compact camera for stills and video.
