B&H Round-Up: TT CityWalker, Wacom Pen & Touch, Apple things, NEC Pro Monitor, Dahle, Etc
And now a few more sale items from B&H, grouped together so I won’t create another half a dozen short posts. First up, bags! The Think Tank Photo CityWalker 30 Messenger Bag in the blue slate color-scheme is on sale for $80 with free expedited shipping, with a limit of up to three units per customer.
If you are interested in one of them Wacom graphics tablets but don’t want to break the bank, the Wacom Intuos Pro Professional Pen & Touch Tablet (Black, Small) is offered in refurbished condition for $179 with free expedited shipping. Offer ends 4/23/17 at 11:59pm ET (or earlier if sold out).
Messenger bags and iPads go hand in hand (the aforementioned Think Tank has a compartment for up to a 15″ laptop, which should fit the iPad fine ~ you can also put the iPad in a case or a sleeve for double protection), which brings us to the Apple 9.7″ iPad Pro (256GB, Wi-Fi Only, Space Gray) offered for $750 with free shipping until 4/30/17 or earlier if sold out.
Speaking of Apple, the 27″ iMac with Retina 5K Display (Late 2015), model Z0SC-MK48259-BH, is on sale for $3850 with free expedited shipping until 3/24/17 or earlier if sold out. This one definitely does NOT fit in the CityWalker messenger bag. You’ll have to use something bigger if you want to take this to Starbucks and become a social media sensation 😉
The screens on tablets and computers are fine, but sometimes you need to go next level with your computer monitors. B&H is offering until 4/21/17 the NEC PA272W-BK-SV 27″ 16:9 IPS Monitor with SpectraView II for $1149 with free expedited shipping. You have to add-to-cart in order to see the discounted price.
You can certainly use this to trim coupons, but it would be the definition of overkill 🙂 On the other hand, if you have photographic reasons for it, the Dahle 554 Professional Rolling Trimmer (28-1/4″) is on sale for $160 with free expedited shipping.

Imported Nikon D7200 w/18-140 DX VR w/1yr seller warranty for $900
The Nikon D7200 is no longer the “latest model” in the D7X0 line, the D7500 was announced a few days and it is currently available for pre-order for $1250 as body only – check Stock Status Tracker.
In new condition, it currently goes for $1000 as body only or $1300 with the 18-104mm lens at various authorized dealers, such as Adorama or Amazon or B&H Photo.
However, one school of thought is that once a “newer model” is revealed, it may be a good idea to buy the previous models as refurbished or used or grey-market, to save money on the purchase of a non-latest-model, since you are not riding the Early Adopter Wave.
If you like this approach, one path is refurbished, the D7200 body only is available manufacturer-refurbished with a 90-day Nikon USA warranty at Adorama or $789 with a 90-da7 B&H warranty at B&H Photo.
Another path that will get you more bang for the buck (if you need/want the 18-140mm DX VR lens) is at the eBay Deals du jour where eBay seller 6ave (99.1%, New Jersey) is offering the imported grey-market D7200 with the 18-140mm DX VR lens and a 1-year seller warranty (from 6ave, not Nikon USA) for $900 with free shipping. Limit five per customer.
For the speed-readers, the “1555” in the eBay listing title maybe easily misread as 1855 as in the 18-55 lens. This 1515 is the MPN of this kit, it comes with the 18-140mm lens 🙂 But for whatever reason, the eBay bots or humans picked a YouTube video for the D700 in the middle of the eBay listing instead of the D7200 🙂
PS: I am not sure how a one-paragraph post turned into this 🙂

Pre-orders on Friday: Sony a9 for $4500
Canon and Nikon are no longer the only ones with used-car-priced full frame flagship cameras. Sony is joining the fray with the new Sony a9 full frame E-mount flagship, with a flagship price of $4500. Pre-orders will begin on Friday 4/21/17, so considerate of Sony to let people enjoy the holidays the days before and after. Preorders will begin at 10am ET on Friday at B&H Photo.
For more on the camera, B&H has a 1-hour video of the announcement, along with a live blog.
Also coming along with the PRO camera is a new Master series lens, the FE 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 GM OSS E-Mount with a price of $2500, and pre-orders opening on Friday.
This new camera now gives mirrorless cameras the lead in 2017, they are “winning” over DSLRs in a penalty shoot-out at 6-5. You can see them all at the New Cameras of 2017 page.

If you don’t have (or had) an REI Mastercard, they are running a promotion that gets you a $100 REI Gift Card if you open an REI Co-Op Mastercard and make at least one purchase with it (any purchase, any amount) within 60 days of account opening.
