Tokina 100mm f2.8 (Nikon) for $340 after $20 MIR [CORRECTED]
In-progress now is updating the Holiday Shopping Situation Room. I am removing both expired offers and also offers that lingered there since Cyber Monday. The idea is now that the Black-Cyber week is over, to make this more lightweight and robust.
That updating brought a new discount with it, in addition to the previously mentioned Canon D-Rebel drops, the Nikon mount version of the Tokina Tamron 100mm f2.8 (Nikon) is down to $340 after $20 MIR (mail-in rebate) at Adorama. It was $350 AR before. It also gets 4% promotional rewards, which dropped $0.40 since the price drop, now around $14.40~ to be used in future Adorama purchases.
BLANKET CORRECTION: this is a Tokina lens, not a Tamron lens. Who knows how many other times I wrote this as Tamron 🙂 Thanks to Mike for pointing it out in the comments! I always get Tamron and Tokina confused 🙂 Of all the names, they both picked six-character T-names with the only difference being two characters in each (“mr” vs “ki”).
Lowepro SlingShot 302 AW Camera Bag for $49 w/FS
Someone needs to start a Kickstarter for a bag to put all your camera bags when you are going on a meta photography trip 🙂 One of the bags to put in the meta bag is on sale, the Lowepro SlingShot 302 AW Camera Bag on sale for $49 with free shipping at B&H Photo as one of their latest Featured Sales…
Lowepro StreamLine 250 Shoulder Bag for $20 w/FS
More camera bag action, the Lowepro StreamLine 250 Shoulder Bag is also on sale for $20 with free shipping at B&H Photo as one of their latest Featured Sales… If your order total is $49+, you get free expedited shipping instead of free default shipping…
PS: I am trying to keep as many of the blog-post titles one line long, so when it’s too close “free S&H” becomes “FS”.
Tamrac 5534 Adventure Messenger 4 for $20 w/free S&H
Oh no, I fell behind on the Camera Bags posts. I must needs make amends now! The Tamrac 5534 Adventure Messenger 4 in the camouflage color scheme for $20 with free shipping at B&H Photo as one of their latest Featured Sales… If your order total is $49+, you get free expedited shipping instead of free default shipping…
Unlocked LG G5 (RS988) with LG Cam Plus (camera module) and VR headset and Extra Battery/Charger for $450
The Holiday Shopping Situation Room update is now completed, and one last offer emerged from the price-checking, B&H Photo added one more freebie to their LG G5 Unlocked smartphone while remaining at $450: an LG Smartphone VR headset which goes for $170 on its own. The other three freebies continue, the LG Cam Plus (camera module) and extra charger and battery. This is model RS988, the unlocked North America variant with GSM and CDMA support. I like this trend of flagships being able to work with GSM and CDMA.
PS: check with your carrier(s) before buying though to be 100% certain it is compatible.
16pk Philips A19 LED Light Bulb 60W-equivalent for $25
On the utilitarian lighting front, the sale is back, the 16-pack of Philips LED 60W-equivalent A19 light bulbs is on sale again for $25 at Amazon by Amazon itself with a limit of up to 30 sets per customer… Meanwhile the Soft White 16-packs remains around $32… The usual free shipping terms apply… This deal too surfaced while updating the Holidays Situation Room…
Refurbished Canon D-Rebel T5i w/18-55 IS STM and 55-250 and 1yr warranty for $400
But wait, there’s more! In addition the D-Rebel T5i w/18-55 going for $350, the price has also dropped for the refurbished Canon D-Rebel T5i w/18-55 IS STM and 55-250 IS II with a 1-year warranty from $450 to $400 at Canon USA Outlet.
Refurbished Canon D-Rebel T5i w/18-55 IS STM and 1yr warranty for $350
Price drop! The refurbished Canon D-Rebel T5i w/18-55 IS STM with a one year Canon USA warranty was going for $400 at the Canon USA Outlet but as of the time of writing, this dropped to $350. Other than this being an older DSLR in terms of “smartphone features”, this is a pretty good “take pictures with” starter kit, given the price and the 1-year warranty.
UPDATE: the D-Rebel T5i two-lens kit (18-55 IS STM and 55-250 IS II) also dropped in price, from $450 to $400 as of the time of writing.
Panasonic GX85 with 12-32 and 45-150 and $100 Gift Card for $698
Panasonic time with a bundle, the Panasonic GX85 with the 12-32mm lens kit is bundled with the Panasonic 45-150mm f4.0-5.6 ASPH lens, along with a $100 Adorama gift certificate, all together for $698 with free shipping at Adorama in either the black color scheme or the black color scheme. Both are in-stock and ready to ship as of the time of writing… Optionally you can triple the original 1-year warranty with a mail-in rebate (PDF details can be found there)…
This offer is also available for purchase at B&H Photo but neither kit is currently in-stock.
64GB PNY Dual Connector USB Flash Drive for $15; 128GB for $30
If you like to transfer/backup files between phones/tablets and computers and other full-size USB devices, the 64GB PNY DUO-LINK USB 3.0 OTG Flash Drive is on sale for $15 with a limit of up to ten per customer at Amazon by Amazon itself. On the same listing you will also find the 128GB version for $30, with the same limit of up to ten per customer.
This has two connectors, a full-size USB 3.0, along with a micro-USB on the other end. It supports USB OTG, so as long as your phone/tablet supports this in both hardware and software/firmware, you should be able to connect to it from either device. As far as I know, you can’t use as a “land bridge”, eg use both connections at the same time (although I haven’t tried it with this particular model).
The usual free shipping terms apply, Prime or $25+/$49+.
Meanwhile according to the lightning deals schedule, the Lightning connector version of this is scheduled to go live on Tuesday at 3am ET. It is not currently on sale.
Speaking of USB flash drives, the USB 2.0 16GB Sandisk Cruzer Blade CZ50 goes for $5.50 but it is an Add-On item, so you need a $25+ order in order to buy it. Storage has dropped enough in price now that the material and product overhead becomes a bigger cost factor. In other words, you can get better bang for the buck with higher storage options.
