Fuji X-T2 Body USED for $1479, NEW IN-Stock for $1600

Some good news on the Fuji X-T2 front. The body only is available in “USED – Like New” condition for $1479 by Amazon Warehouse Deals itself. It is also in-stock in new condition at its starting price of $1600 by OneCall directly and by OneCall on eBay and by OneCall via Amazon.

In other Stock Status Tracker updates:

+ the Nikon D7500 moved to the bottom of the table since it’s still a few weeks away
+ I removed the Olympus E-M1 II since it has been steadily in-stock at normal prices. However, I am saving the entries, so if it runs out in the future, I can easily add it back to the table 🙂

If there are any other cameras you want to see tracked, please leave a comment here or there, or use the online contact form or tweet on The Twitter.

The other two kits have also dropped in price, the w/18-55 is $1000 with free accessories (you are paying +$150 for the 18-55 lens) while the with 18-135mm kit dropped to $1250 but no free accessories (you are paying $400 more to get the 18-135 lens).

Needless to say, there are plenty of Canon APS-C options out there, especially if you factor in the refurbished ones as well, so there are plenty of choices and choice-headaches 🙂

LensShifter (Balanced Focus and Zoom Grip) for $20 with coupon

The LensShifter (Balanced Focus and Zoom Grip for DSLR and Mirrorless Camera Lens) currently has a 20% off clip-on coupon at Amazon.com, dropping the price from $25 to $20. The coupon is easy to use, you simply press the green Clip button and the coupon is automatically applied. You don’t have to type anything. The discount will be reflected in the top right corner of the Amazon Checkout page. Here’s a screenshot if you are not familiar with Amazon’s coupons:

This is available in Blue or Red. With the coupon, the individual colors are cheaper than the 2-pack which goes for $45 and it is not coupon-eligible. These average 4.6 out of 5 based on 28 customer reviews. The maker is “Engineerable”, which also makes a Focus Shifter but there’s no coupon on that one.

96pk EverBrite AAA batteries for $13.60

If you need single-use AAA batteries, good until 4:15pm ET today, you can get a 96pk EverBrite AAA batteries for $13.60 as a lightning deal. This was not included in last night’s Lightning Deals schedule [lots of Neewer lightning/studio offers today] as it was either a last minute addition or it was not in the categories I check every night (I can’t check all categories, there’s a LOT of them).

Speaking of batteries, the previously mentioned 100pk AC Delco single-use AA is going for $12.12 or slightly less if you do “Subscribe and Save”. The AC Delco is Prime-only and limit one per customer. Meanwhile the AmazonBasics 100pk sale ended, they jumped to $24 as of this recheck.
