Welcome to the Camera Dome :)
The last of the three in-stock alerts from B&H Photo is for the world of K-full-frame, the new Pentax HD FA 28-105mm f3.5-5.6 ED DC WR is now in-stock for its starting price of $500 at B&H Photo.
PS: it is Spring Arrival season, so I suspect there will be many and more in-stock alerts in May of this year. It is May, which means already 1/3rd of 2016 is OVER! Time flies!
B&H Photo has a promotion bundling a $50 B&H Photo Gift Card along with either 4% promotional rewards or free accessories for a variety of the Sony a6000 kits. A total of 24 bundles are available. Some get free accessories, some get 4% rewards, some get both, some get neither. Check each individual listing of interest to see what is included. Offers end 5/8/16.
For more action, check their latest Mother’s Day Specials good until 5/8/16 (some require coupon code MOMDAY16).
Look under your chairs Nikon full frame photographers. You get a battery grip, and you get a battery grip, and you get a battery trip! If you are not a Nikon photographer, you get a limited edition box of Oprah Chai 🙂
The above paragraph, in case it wasn’t obvious, it was a joke, but this offer is not a joke.

One of the main (aka the ones that run all day long ~ unless they sellout) Amazon Gold Box Daily Deals is a sale on various Polaroid Snap Instant Digital Cameras. The camera-only goes for $100, while the bundle with a 50pk of 2×3 ZINK paper and pouch go for $113. Limit three per bundle per customer. I believe some colors sold-out since it went live, so don’t sleep on them. Offers end at 3am ET on Wednesday or earlier if sold out.
Today is, among many other things (because there are many things and only 366 days per days), is “Day Against DRM”, freedom from artificial digital leashes (insert anti-DRM-rant-ExTreMe-EDiTiOn-2016-rem1x.html here). To celebrate, O’Reilly Books have a 50% off sale with coupon DRM2016. If your order total is $100+, then the coupon gets you 60% off. This only applies to e-books, not print books, not print+digital. Their “Learning Paths” are not eligible for the coupon, but they are on sale for $99 each. Sale ends Wednesday at 8am eastern.
They have mostly technical books, so you can either browse the categories or search for your items of areas of interest, for instance, photography related things to search for:
+ Photoshop, Lightroom, GIMP
+ DSLR, Camera
+ Canon, Nikon, Sony, etc (sadly nothing for Pentax)
+ Photography, etc, etc, etc

More imported camera gear action at the eBay Deals, with a Nikon prime. eBay seller “PhotoVideo4Less” (99.9%, Brooklyn::NewYork) is offering the new condition imported Nikon 50mm f1.8G lens for $168 with free shipping. There is no warranty mentioned in the eBay listing, so assume it gets no warranty.
This lens goes for $218 with free accessories at authorized Nikon USA dealers such as B&H Photo and Adorama (including the Corel software bundle). So it’s up to you to trade off the manufacturer warranty and the free accessories versus paying $50 less.
Fuji started a successful run with APS-C Big Sensor Primes with the X100 and now their line-up has expanded and prices decreased too. The brand new Fuji X70 sells at its starting price of $700 but you have a choice of freebies. At B&H Photo you get a free Fujifilm BLC-X70 Leather Case (Black) automatically included by B&H. This is mentioned right above the Product Highlights (see annotated screenshot crop below):
If you don’t need the official case, or you prefer a boatload of free accessories, Adorama is bundling it with Corel software bundle (includes AfterShot PRO 2 and Paintshop PRO X8) along with a ProOptics 49mm Essentials Filter kit, a Lowepro pouch, a 16GB Toshiba SD card, and the obligatory cleaning kit.
Sometimes the initials of camera mounts make up a real word. A cape. You can wear a cape and be a prime superhero with the Rokinon 14mm f2.8 ED AS IF UMC on sale for $280 with free shipping and 2% promotional rewards at B&H Photo with coupon code MOMDAY16 in the Canon EF, Sony Alpha SLR A-mount, Pentax K-mount and Sony E-mount. These are manual focus lenses.
Zoom-zoom, the black color option of the Panasonic ZS50 travel-zoom (30x optical) is offered for $298 with free shipping and 4% promotional rewards (around $12) at B&H Photo and for $300 without rewards at Groupon Goods.
The Fujifilm Instax Mini 70 Instant Film Camera in the yellow color option is on sale for $99 with free shipping at Amazon by Amazon itself. Limit five per customer. If yellow is not your color, the sale also includes the blue and white camera bodies that go for $100 each with a limit of five as well. A 3rd-party seller has them for the same price, so you can get more from them if you need more.
TIP: this looks like it may be an automated Amazon price-match of the 3rd-party seller price, so it’s completely unpredictable how long this will last.
If you need plenty of Fuji Instax Mini Instant Film there is a bundle that contains 10 Twin Packs (20 instant films per Twin Pack) along with 100 photo frame stickers (see gallery picture #4 over there) and a microfiber cleaning cloth for $138 with free shipping with the order fulfilled by Amazon so you get free Prime shipping. Limit three bundles per customer.
From the Drones to the Action cameras, B&H Photo is having an “Add to Cart” promotion on the GoPro HERO4 Silver, model CHDHY-401, bundled with a free GoPro Remote 1.0 and Wrist Housing Bundle, all together for $330 with free shipping. The free items are listed prominently over there while this promotion is running. If you don’t see them mentioned, it means the promotion expired. You don’t have to login to see the price, but you have to click the “Add to Cart” button.
Another “hit single” droning on in the eBay Deals Top 100 is the new condition DJI Phantom 3 Standard with 2.7K Camera and 3-Axis Gimbal CP.PT.000168 on sale for $400 with free shipping with a limit of five per customer by eBay seller “Cookie Electronics” (98.1%, ships from New York). Over 620 units got sold so far from this listing.
The Panasonic GH4 body only goes for $1300 at authorized Panasonic USA dealers, but they are allowed to bundle it with various free accessories. Adorama has a bundle with a $150 Adorama Gift Card and a 32GB card going for the same price of $1300… They also have other bundles that include different combinations of accessories (video-priority accessories)… Of audio-video interest, they have a bundle of the GH4 + DMW-YAGH Interface Unit + Rode Microphones VideoMic for $1700, the same price as without the free accessories…
On the other hand, if are comfortable with imported items with a 1-year seller warranty, making its way into the eBay Deals Hot 100, eBay seller “Electronics Valley” (99.6%, New Jersey) is offering the new condition imported grey-market with a 1-year seller warranty (not Panasonic USA) Panasonic GH4 body only for $900 with free shipping.
To the Trending eBay Deals we go now where we find Canadian retailer QuickNDone (99.8%, Ontario::Canada) offering the new condition Tamron SP 24-70mm F2.8 Di VC USD in the Nikon mount only for $769 with free shipping. This ships to Canada and the USA. People buying in Canada get a 6-year Tamron Canada warranty. Limit 18 per customer (or that’s how many they are left in this offer).

To the eBay Deals we return where we find the NewEgg eBay store offering the new condition 4TB Seagate Backup Plus Portable External Hard Drive with 200GB of Cloud Storage for $105 with free shipping with a limit of five per customer.
While there on eBay, PayPal’s Digital Gifts is offering a Pay $40, Get $50 Michaels eGift Card via e-mail with a limit of five per buyer.
Speaking of gift cards, if you are a fan of “certified pre-owned plastic gift cards”, eBay seller “Gift Card Outlet” (98.3%) is offering a $25 Best Buy plastic Gift Card for $23.75 with free shipping by US mail. You can buy multiple cards through this promotion. This is a 5% discount, so perhaps more of interest to frequent Best Buy shoppers?
If you are interested in refurbished Canon SLR lenses that come with a 1-year warranty from Canon, they have a sale on a number of them (the ones on sale have a price in red ink) at the official Canon Outlet store. Unlike Amazon, the Canon Outlet store won’t let you buy out of stock items, so it’s finders keepers for these type of deals.
You can sort price (high or low) or alphabetical (either direction) or by “recommended”. You can also increase the items per view to up to 72 if you are on a bigger screen and computer with enough power to handle a bigger page.
We have a little bit of an “educational” theme. If you are a fan of Udemy, coupon code 25PERCENTNOW gets you 25% off most online courses at Udemy.com. Offer ends 5/1/16.
PS: many retailers are celebrating Passover, which is why we have fewer offers from many of the camera-centric retailers. Business will return to status quo on Monday 5/2/16.
