Stock Update: Fuji X-T2 goes IN and OUT, Everything Else In-Stock
The Stock Status Tracker has just been updated. There was one Fuji X-T2 when I did the update, but by the time I wrote an alert-post here, it got scooped up (for reference, this is the now sold-out listing).
For some reason PopFlash lists their X-T2 cameras one at a time instead of all of them at once, so they may list more (if they have more). This pre-filled eBay search query searches for Fujifilm Cameras only in their eBay store.
Price-wise this kit is the same as buying the items separately, the X-T2 body only goes for $1600 on its own, while the VPB-XT2 Battery Grip goes for $329 on its own. The only difference is that they charge shipping and handling.

The Nikon D7200 body goes for $1050 in new condition at authorized dealers which are bundling it with free accessories (eg Adorama). But if you are comfortable with manufacturer-refurbished and can find use for the two DX VR kit lenses (eg use them or bundle them with older DSLRs as gifts for friends and family – the Holidays are just around the corner after all), then…
… among the latest eBay Deals, the Beach Camera eBay store is offering the manufacturer refurbished Nikon D7200 Two-Lens Kit with the 18-55 and 55-200 (both DX VR lenses) for $850 with free shipping and a 90-day Nikon USA warranty.

An alternative, not a lightning deal, is this other Panasonic KJ17MCC82A Eneloop Power Pack for 8AA, 2AAA, 2 C Spacers, 2 D Spacers, Advanced Individual Battery Charger which goes for $37.11.
Both have the CC17 4-slot charger (see pictures #2 of each gallery there, the back of the Eneloop case). As far as I can tell, the difference between the two kits is 4 AA and 2 AAA batteries

Payment News: PayPal will soon allow Credit Cards as Default Payment Method
PayPal’s favorability ratings are probably in the cable company and politician levels, and with an avalanche of alternative payment methods, they are finally doing the unthinkable. Starting at some point next month, you will be able to set your default payment method to anything you want, you won’t be forced to use a debit card. That’s right a *GASP* credit card. It only took them 20 years to “discover” this feature 🙂 The feature will roll out at different times throughout the world. More details via CNet News.
