Propel Star Wars T-65 X-Wing Starfighter Quadcopter for $99

Star Wars Mania is coming back and until 11:59pm ET tonight, $99 will take you a step closer to The Merchandising Force! The new condition Propel Star Wars T-65 X-Wing Starfighter Quadcopter with Collectors Edition Box is on sale for $99 with free shipping at Adorama and Amazon itself.

These prices went up as of recheck: the same price but shipping is extra at B&H Photo.

Prima Photo Small Travel Tripod for $70 w/free S&H

The Search Box at the top of the blog is now very functional, so that’s another way for you to check for things if you don’t want to go into Pages #2, #3, #4, etc. Whatever WordPress did since the last time I checked, their search engine improved considerably! It’s not shaky at all. As if it is standing on a tripod…

… which brings us to the new condition Prima Photo Small Travel Tripod in the red or black color scheme, on sale for $70 with free expedited shipping at B&H Photo.

Rokinon 12mm f2.8 Fisheye for $349 [C/N/K/E]

If you are a fan of fish and eyes, you may also be a fan of fisheye lenses! The Rokinon 12mm f/2.8 ED AS IF NCS UMC Fisheye is on sale for $349 with free expedited shipping and 2% promotional rewards (around $7~) at B&H Photo in the Canon, Nikon and Pentax SLR systems, and the Sony E mirrornyet systems.

Massive Apple Sale at B&H Photo

The Massive Apple Sale at B&H Photo features lots of MacBooks, iPads, iMacs, desktops, and other Apple products. Some of the offers expire tonight at 11:59pm ET, while others run until Thursday night 11/30/17. There are too many of them to list here individually, but if you are interested, check them out! Don’t forget to also hit “Load More” at the bottom of the page over there because there are more than one page-load-full.

Free Battery Grips with D500, D750, D810; Free $80 Rewards with 24-70/2.8E for $2197, Etc

There are plenty of Nikon Sales at B&H Photo, including the professional Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 24-70mm f/2.8E ED VR Lens for $2197 with free expedited shipping and 4% promotional rewards which are about $88 to be spent in future purchases at B&H.

A variety of DSLRs and lenses are participating, including the free battery grip promotions for the Nikon D500 kits and the Nikon D810 kits and the Nikon D750 kits.

No free battery grip for the D850. I suspect some photographers would be willing to give Nikon a battery grip for a chance to get the D850 🙂 Speaking of the D850, I just rechecked, it remains in pre-order/backorder at B&H and Adorama, and at the all-encompassing and all-frustrating when you are waiting for a new camera to arrive “temporarily out of stock” at Amazon.
