Fishing for Deals: Amazon’s Camera & Photo Outlet
I already just mentioned a quartet of deals I spotted, but I can’t price-check 150+ items on a dime, but if you feel like fishing for deals, there are 125 Lenses and 35 digital cameras and many accessories at the Amazon Camera and Photo Outlet.
NOTE #1: Use the left side of their page to navigate subcategories. The navigation breadcrumbs seem to take you to the general listings instead of the outlet listings (the ones that say “1-24 of 5,660 results for Electronics : Outlet : Camera & Photo : 1” [I haven’t tried this on multiple browsers, so it may be a caching/browser/cookies issue].
NOTE #2: if you are not familiar with the price range of individual products, price-check them as the Outlet prices are all over the place.
