Used Pentax AF-330FTZ Zoom Flash for $13 + S&H
The Pentax AF-330FTZ Zoom Flash currently has two used listings at Adorama in “Excellent Minus” condition for $13.50 plus shipping (around $5). This is an old model. The listings for it are bare bones, no picture, no description, but the manufacturer code is the correct one, PXSAF330FTZ. If you don’t see any used listings at the link above, it means they sold out. Adorama offers a 30-day return and 90-day warranty of their own, so you are covered in case there’s an error in the listing. So a bit of YMMV.
Used Tamron 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 DI-II VC for $125 [C]
The popularity of superzoom digital cameras also fueled a parallel superzoom lens “zoom ratio war”. If instead you prefer a more modest, old-school superzoom ratio, the Tamron 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 DI-II VC goes for $199 in new condition, or you can get it for $179 manufacturer refurbished at Adorama.
If you are a Canon shooter and if you are looking to save a sizeable chunk of that, thanks to the 20% off in-cart promotion at Amazon Warehouse Deals, you can get this camera in USED – Very Good condition for $124~ with free shipping after the in-cart discount. There are multiple listings of this, so price may drop over time. Remember, AWD offers a 30-day return policy, but makes no warranty promises.
If you are looking for something in-between those two options, the Nikon version is available in USED EX+ condition (Excellent plus) at KEH Camera for $149 plus shipping. And if you buy it before 12/31/17, you get a 365-day warranty instead of the usual 180-day.
In-Stock Now: Olympus 45mm f1.2 PRO [m43]
I am posting as fast I can type, although how fast I can think is the limiting factor here 🙂 Prime your E-system cameras! The new condition Olympus 45mm f1.2 ED PRO lens is in-stock and shipping at B&H Photo at its starting price of $1199 with free expedited shipping.
The lens is not on the list of the Olympus Black Friday lenses but since these start on Thursday, you may want to add it to your shopping cart and wait until the Black Friday Olympus deals go live in case it gets discounted. It is unusual for a “just released” professional tier product to get discounted, but Thursday is just 11 hours away in the Eastern Time Zone 🙂
(ENDED) Used Panasonic FZ80 superzoom (60X) for $250
As of a 11/26/17 AM recheck, the used options have sold out….

But if you are comfortable with used cameras without warranty (only a 30-day return policy), then thanks to the 20% off in-cart promotion at Amazon Warehouse Deals, you can get this camera in USED – Like New condition for $250 with free shipping after the in-cart discount. There are many listings of this, and pictures of the available cameras, so it is possible that price pressure will build on them and price will drop over time ~ other things equal, because the real world is not an Economics 101 textbook example 🙂
Used Fujifilm H Mount Adapter G for GFX 50S for $230
This is a “deep cut” both in terms of price and in terms of being a niche within a nice product. The new condition Fujifilm H Mount Adapter G for GFX 50S goes for $660 in new condition at authorized dealers sucha s Adorama. It is used to mount Super EBC Fujinon HC lenses to the Fuji GFX 50S camera.
But thanks to the 20% off in-cart promotion at Amazon Warehouse Deals (AWD), you can get this in USED – Like New Condition (original packaging) for $230 after the 20% off in-cart discount, sold and shipped by AWD itself.
