Olympus Outlet Refurb Refill: FL-600R for $200, TG-series, Etc

The previously mentioned refurb E-PL7s have sold out once again, but the refill continues at the official Olympus USA outlet store with a variety of refurbished M43 cameras, a trio of refurb TG-series elementproof P&S cameras, the refurb FL-600R flash for $200, various lenses and such. A total of 43 listings are available. They are slow to remove sold-out/out-of-stock items, so they don’t disappear from that listing immediately after they sell out…

Tue Gold Box: YI Lite Action Cam, Zomei, Urceri, Etc

There is some potentially interesting action in the Tuesday Amazon Gold Box as follows:

+ starts 2:40pm ET: CADeN DSLR Camera Sling Bag (price before sale $28)
+ also free lens pouch under “Special offers and product promotions” – can’t tell if this would be stackable with the lightning deal price until it goes live and you can add to the shopping cart and see what happens; in these type of situations, sometimes they are stackable, sometimes they are not;

+ various action cams and other assorted C&P accessories as usual

Now shipping: Nokia 6.1 Android Smartphone (ZEISS Optics) w/free Photo Kit for $269

If you are a Nokia + Zeiss shipper (ha!), the brand new Nokia 6.1 factory-unlocked Android smartphone with Zeiss optics is now in-stock and shipping for $269 with free expedited shipping at B&H Photo with a free “B&H Photo Video Basic Photo/Video Kit for Smartphones” [mount, LED light, flexible tripod] automatically included by B&H.

This runs Android 8.0, with 3GB RAM [probably the minimum these days for Android], 32GB on-board, microSD storage, GSM, NFC, Bluetooth 5.0, USB-C connector [but not USB 3.x features],

One of the things Nokia is promising with their Android phone line-up is speedy and steady OS and security updates ~ after all the phone is part of Android One. It is easier to promise this when your phone line-up consists of single-figures in individual models, we’ll see how it plays out in the next couple of years ~ after all, most phone manufacturers sound/sounded very optimistic in delivering updates at announcement time, but their post-release records are spotty and patchy [pun intended?]. But they have already delivered multiple updates for their first generation Android phones…

PS: the same price is offered at amazon.com but without a free photo-video accessories kit…

The wait is over! Photoshop Week at CreativeLIVE is now live! There are two parallel streams of classes running Monday through Saturday afternoon.

You can find the complete schedule Monday through Saturday at the Photoshop Week page. During this promotional period, they are offering the whole Photoshop Week bundle (42 classes total) for a one low price of $299.
