128GB Sandisk Extreme PRO UHS-I U3 V30 SDXC for $62 w/FS
A 3rd-party seller has triggered an automated price-match for the 128GB Sandisk Extreme PRO UHS-I U3 V30 SDXC card for $62 at Amazon by Amazon itself. This goes for $65 elsewhere. This is a small discount but these are very solid cards and Sandisk knows that, so they are not getting doorbuster discounts. To cut a long story short, if you happen to need to buy them now, it’s a good price. If not, you can always wait…
PS: it should go without saying, when buying memory cards at Amazon, make sure you check who the seller is, and also that you are getting the correct model. Some of the names are too confusing and can be easily mistaken. This card is a UHS-I, but if your camera does not support UHS-II cards, you can save big with UHS-I cards.
130+ product additions to KEH Camera
No weekend coupon at KEH Camera, but they have refilled their inventory with 130+ product additions. These are “newly arrived” but since most of the products they sell are used, I prefer to call them “product additions” so as not to confuse the speed-readers 🙂 No coupon. This is just an “inventory added” alert. There’s a variety of brands included (Leica, Zeiss, Olympus, Sony, Nikon, Fuji, etc), the link above shows them sorted by price from high to low but you can use the various settings on their website to look at things or mounts of interest.

Now shipping: Olympus E-PL9 in three colors and two kit options
A dramatic entrance by the Olympus E-PL9 mirrorless camera. In a “drop the mic” fashion, Olympus announced the camera for the US market and it is already in-stock and shipping at authorized Olympus dealers. There are two options available, body only for $600 or with the 14-42 EZ lens for $700. Three color schemes are available, black, white and brown, but borrowing from the naming craze of smartphones, they call them “onyx black”, “pearl white”, and “honey brown”. I’m personally holding out for the “truly blue” or the fire orange of the HTC U11 😉
This camera too has the high speed shooting technology that can go up to 9fps. Once a feature only found in dedicated sports cameras, now it’s propagating here and there and everywhere…
The various options are now in-stock and shipping at Get Olympus and Adorama and B&H Photo and Amazon by Amazon itself.
Note that orders placed at B&H and Adorama will ship next week…
