It’s back to Black Friday pricing at Target with the return to the $100 price level for the Nikon Coolpix L340 compact zoom. The last few years Target has been able to secure an “exclusive” Coolpix L-camera that they manage to have as a $100 Black Friday doorbuster (or something like that). As the L in the model name strongly hints, this is powered by AA batteries (four of them).

Photoflex Transpac Single Kit Case for $150

Panasonic GH4 body with $200 Gift Card for $1500

So you have $260~ to spend in future B&H purchases… The freebies do not end there, you also get a free digital download of the ON1 Effects 10 software, and if you don’t hate mail-in rebates with an unparalleled passion, you can triple the original warranty from Panasonic via mail-in rebate.

Lightroom now FREE on Google Play (no sign-up, no subscription)
Adobe was rather late to the mobile photography app party, so now they have to be more aggressive to recapture lost ground. Which perhaps explains their latest move, Lightroom is now free for all to use on Google Play. You don’t need an Adobe ID, you don’t need a subscription. Just install it on your device and start using it locally.
I played with it for a few minutes. On an 8-inch Android tablet, the screen feels rather small for the UI, readability is not ideal, and in general it has more of a downsized desktop app feel to it. But it’s free and it works! It will probably feel a lot better on 10+ inch tablets. Perhaps a new excuse for photographers to buy the new Google Pixel C Android 2-in-1 creature? Or that 18-inch Samsung Galaxy Viewstrocity?
If you want to sync with your desktop, then an Adobe ID and subscription is needed. They are not giving everything away 🙂
