Welcome to the Camera Dome :)
Amazon Germany is back with another Sandisk sale, this time the theme is 256GB memory cards and storage as follows:
+ 256GB Extreme PRO UHS-I U3 V30 C10 for 60 euro
+ 256GB Ultra for 45 euro
+ 256GB Cruzer Ultra Fit flash drive for 45
+ 480GB Internal SSD Plus III for 58 euro
This is a limited time sale but not a lightning deal, so expiration time is unknown…
For EU photographers, if you are a fan of the Adobe Elements series, they have a sale at Amazon Germany on their Elements 2019 series. Individual Element titles (Photoshop or Premiere) go for 50 euro each, or you can get both together for ever and ever to part for 71 euro. These are the digital download options and may be restricted to Germany…
As usual, the Friday B&H Photo daily deals last for 48 hours, so this group runs for 48 instead of 24 hours, going until Saturday at 11:59pm eastern:
+ VAnguard Sedona 45 DSLR Backpack for $50 in multiple color schemes
+ various Freehands gloves for M and W from $13 to $20
+ JARV Qi charging pad for $25
If you are a fan of Transcend memory cards, their new condition 128GB Transcend SDXC C10 U3 V30, model TS128GSDC300S-E, is currently going for $20 per card at Amazon by Amazon itself. You can buy as may as you like at this price…
If you are not a fan of Transcend, the 128GB Sandisk Ultra goes for $22 by Amazon itself but it is not U3/V30…
IF you are a fan of outdoor photography or nature in general and you are a fan of hippie collectives, the REI Outlet is having a sale/clearance with discounts of 70% off or more. No coupon needed, the price you see is the price you pay…
REI is not a photography store but it has products that can help you with your outdoor and indoor adventures…
REI being a hippie collective, you only pay for membership once, and then you are a member of the cult collective for a whole lifetime…
If you are a Barnes and Noble fan, coupon code LOVE2READ gets you 10% off your next order of $35+ or 15% off orders of $60+ at the Barnes and Noble website. This is for the whole order, not just one item. Coupon expires February 4 at 3am eastern time… And if you happen to be near any of their B&M stores, their Coupons and Offers page has a printable coupon for 15% off a single item at their B&M stores [yes, there are plenty left!]… Exclusions apply for both online and offline sales…
UPDATE: this line somehow didn’t make it to the original post: Among the Thursday B&H Photo daily deals you can find…
+ FEIYU G5 Handheld Gimbal for GoPro for $100
+ Bolt VM-210 Flexible Macro Light for $40
+ Autocue/QTV 12″ Ultra Lite Teleprompter Kit for $479
At the Woot website the action includes curved Samsung monitors, 9.7-inch iPad PROs, and mo(i)re…
At the Best Buy dailies there’s a sale on Ultra Plus Sandisk memory cards in either SD or microSD, going for the same price at the same storage option: 32GB for $11, and 128GB for $30. They also come with an optional Shutterfly coupon offer…
Various computer accessories are part of a Logitech sale in the Amazon USA Gold Box including webcams, mice, headsets and keyboards of course…
Good until the end of January 2019 (31st at 11:59pm ET), coupon code STARTCREATING20 gets you the following discounts on the CreativeLIVE Season Pass: a 1-year prepaid subscription drops in the shopping cart from $300 to $250. This rate is for the first year (12 months = 365 days). Alternately you can sign up for their beta month-to-month option that is $29 per month. The latter is handy if there’s only a small number of classes you are interested in, or you only have schedule flexibility during certain months of the year…
NOTE that most but not all classes are available through the Season Pass. Their FAQ pages have detailed exclusions…
One of the benefits of the Canon-Nikon systems is the abundance of third-party lenses from the Japanese trio (TamTokSig), offering more affordable alternatives to the “canon” system lenses. Which brings us to the Wednesday B&H Photo daily deals, headlined by the new condition Tamron SP 150-600mm f/5-6.3 Di VC USD lens offered for $779 with free shipping in your choice of Canon or Nikon systems…
PS: this is certified to be a Tamron lens {that’s because I often confuse/mistype Tamron and Tokina ~ they share four of the six letters in their respective names}
Also participating in the deals du jour is the Dracast LED500 Pro Bi-Color LED Light with V-Mount Battery Plate for $199 and three bundles of the Atomos Shogun Inferno 7″ ranging from $995 to $1195…
UPDATE: speaking of daily deals, at Best Buy they are offering the new condition 12.3″ Microsoft Surface PRO (4GB RAM, 128GB SSD) with a keyboard included for $649 with free shipping or store pickup… There are enough Surface products now (and that’s before the foldables and the smartphone-type-things arrive) to warrant a visit to the Wikipedia page to sort them all out. We’ve already had six generations of the tablet, and two of each of the laptop and the “Book” and the Studio and three of the Surface Hub…
While price-checking yesterday’s post, a bang for the buck option surfaced, it’s part of a Sandisk sale at Amazon Germany {not a lightning deal, so expiration time unknown) that has the new condition 64GB Sandisk Extreme SDXC card going for 15 euro and you can buy as many as you like. This is NOT a PRO version but it is V30, U3, C10, etc.
Once again, in a turn of conventional wisdom, Amazon Germany defeats the Amazon USA website where it goes for just under $20; however the 128GB goes for $35 in the USA Amazon but 36 euro at Amazon Allemagne…
This is not a lightning deal, so I have no clue when the sale ends, but as of the time of writing, Amazon Germany is offering the new condition 256GB Sandisk Extreme PRO SDXC card (U3, V30, C10, up to 95MB/s) for 60 euro with free shipping in Germany. Limit up to five per customer at the sale price. This price currently soundly defeats the other storage options in this line…
In contrast this card goes for $88 at Amazon USA…
UPDATE: this is part of a Sandisk sale (not a lightning deal) at Amazon Germany that also has the 512GB version of the PRO card going for 170 euro {that’s the premium of being the highest capacity available).
For a limited time only, CreativeLIVE is offering 50% off Lindsay Adler classes. The price you see is the price you pay. Sale prices start at $14 and go up. Around forty classes are available from Ms Adler and participate in this sale! There’s a few short free ones as well in the second page of the search results…
Speaking of free, you can watch for free during the designated days the various classes shown at the CL On-Air schedule…
Meanwhile the limited time $15 off coupon, aptly named 15FROMCHASE continues to run and it is good on all classes [I don’t know if it works on sale/featured items, I haven’t tested it]. Check their class catalog for ideas…
No 100 year anniversary products in the Tuesday B&H Photo daily deals but they are offering:
+ Thule Crossover 25L Daypack for 15″ Laptop for $50
+ iKan IFD1024 Featherweight Daylight LED Flood Fixture with AB and V-Mount Plates for $299
+ DELL 13.3″ Inspiron 13 5000 Series Multi-Touch 2-in-1 Laptop for $399

Computers are also in at the Woot daily deals but of the refurbished kind with the HP Elitebook in “Computers” and the Samsung S8 and S8+ duo [soon to be S-triplets {or more} with the launch of the S10 allegedly] in “Electronics”…
Speaking of Woot and computers there’s a few of them available as part of an open-box sale running until February 1st (or earlier for any that sell out – and they do sell out ahead of time as you can see over there)…
If you have embraced USB-C, Adorama is offering for a limited time (as a “snapshot deal”) the new condition 128GB Lexar JumpDrive C20c for $19 with free shipping. You can buy as many as you like. One side is USB-C (obviously), the other size is full size USB. This is a storage cable, not just a flash stick, so you have a “3 in 1” type of a usage for it. It supports USB 3.1 and promises UP TO 150MB/s read and UP TO 60MB/s write speeds. No coupon, no rebate, just add to le shopping cart and proceed to checkout!
PS: there is a bit of red on it, so it could color-match a Chinese New Year gift bundle 🙂
PS2: speaking of Adorama, they are running a winter sale on various Canon C-series Cinema cameras…
A duo of Sony E-system full frames can be found in the Tuesday JAN-29-2019 Amazon Germany Gold Box, both body-onlies, with the a7s going for 1358 euro, and the a7r II going for 1729 euro… Today’s sales also include the Motorola G6 Plus (4Gb RAM, 64GB onboard) going for 239 euro. You definitely needs a Wiki page to sort out the G6 models, let alone the whole Moto G line…
The choices now in full frame mirrorless have exploded after Photokina 2018, with Canon and Nikon throwing their own hats in the ring, and a new ragtag alliance of three launching Micro Four L 😉
Another week is upon us [if your calendaring philosophy calls for Monday to be the start of a new week] and we have a new set of B&H Photo daily deals as follows:
+ GITZO 100-Year Anniversary Edition Tripod with Ball Head for $800
+ Apple iPad PRO of the 12.9-inch kind, with Wifi and 4G [I cringe at the thought of new products coming in 2019 with various faux-5G designations] with a yuge 512GB on-board storage, this being the mid-2017 model, for $799 in three color schemes
+ TP-Link smarthome thing and smart light bulb
The OS Fairness Doctrine [not to be confused with Doctorate] dictates competing OS deals, so the main Woot website is offering a variety of refurbished Surface 3 PRO tablet bundles from $480 to $780 [with 90-day Woot warranty], with various refurbished Samsung 4K OLED at Woot::Electronics, and Dell Optiplexes at Woot::Computers, and a refurb 10.5″ iPad PRO for $400 at Sellout/Clearance…
For European shoppers, Amazon Germany woke up from its snowy slumber with a variety of offers including:

+ Anker sale including 10,000 PowerCore II powerbank for 24 euro
+ Huawei P.Smart phone bundles for 239 euro

+ Philips SonicCare Diamond Clean for that sparkly smile of your portrait subjects 🙂

Good until Friday at 11:59pm ET, KEH Camera is offering 20% off select camera lenses using coupon code LENSES1A entered over there. Over 350 lenses are eligible for this promotion. As usual, their shopping cart is the ultimate decider on what qualifies for the coupon…
Brands include Nikon, Zeiss, Hasselblad, Sigma, Canon, Olympus, Sony, Rollei, Rokinon, Schneider, Contax, Pentax, etc…

+ SKB Mil-Std Waterproof Case with Custom Interior for $60
+ Auray Mil-Std Waterproof Case with Custom Interior for $50
+ Ooma Butterfleye 1080p Wi-Fi Security Camera for $80
Meanwhile at the Friday Amazon USA Gold Box there is a sale on budget Huanuo stands of various kinds (monitors, PC, feet, etc), along with a sale on various Brita water-filter pitchers… Just like razors, you have to also check the price of replacement filters before buying into a “system”…
Speaking of Amazon, while browsing around in their Kindle ebook pages, you may see an offer for a $5 ebook credit when you spend $20+ in Kindle ebooks between January 22-28 in 2019. This offers requires a login to see, and after you login, you have to activate it before it goes live. Thus, no direct link to the offer, but if you start browsing around the Kindle pages, you may see it. I don’t know if it is targeted or not…
Look for this mini banner on top of Kindle-related Amazon product pages:
As of a JAN-25-2019 re-check [yes, we are just eleven months away from Christmas!], the sale ended, the price is back up to 40 euro… But the Amazon USA Lenovo 2-in-1 Chromebook that was also mentioned in this sprawling post continues to be good as of this update…
NAMM 2019 is upon us [see Trade Show Calendar reference post] as 2019 barrels through [already 2/3rds of the 1st month of the year is gone!], and there is a NAMM theme in the Thursday B&H Photo daily deals:

And the headliner at Best Buy’s dailies is a 49-inch Toshiba 1080p Smart Fire TV for $250…
Speaking of daily deals, there is also a live QVC-style show running inside the Amazon Gold Box [may need a desktop/laptop for it to show depending on your screen/viewport]…

If you like the thrill of a Woot-OFF, the Clearance (formerly Sellout) and Gourmet sub-Woots are having their very own Woot-OFFs at the Woot website…
Adobe offers often make the “rounds” on various retailer websites and this time around it’s the Best Buy deals du jour offering the Photoshop Elements 2019 software for $65… They also have a 33-pack of mixed-size single-use Insigna-brand alkaline-batteries for $11…
Adorama is running another “snapshot deal”, a cross between a daily-deal and a limited-time offer, this time around being the new condition Ready Rig GS Stabilizer + ProArm Kit with Case going for $1999 with free shipping and handling…
Inside the offers at the Amazon USA Gold Box you can find for a limited time the new condition Fire HD 8 tablet going for $50 in the entry-point configuration of 16GB on-board storage [that’s small but look at the price ~ and they also have a microSD slot] with Special Offers, with 1.5GB RAM, etc. This is marked as the “All New” model and I’ve fallen behind on which Fire tablet came out when, so Wikipedia is your best Fire-y friend for these matters. Once upon a time I had the original Fire tablet, which, tech-trivia factoid, had the same outer shell as the Blackberry Playbook. Back when Blackberry made …tablets!?!?!?
For the European Union shoppers, Amazon Germany is having an “up to 20% off” sale on a variety of AmazonBasics products ~ use the various sub-category tabs over there to filter by areas/topics of interest…
If your interests intersect at custom photo books and Walgreens Photo, good until JAN-26-2019 at 11:59pm central time, coupon code IHEARTBOOKS (all one word) gets you 50% off custom photo books at Walgreens Photo.

Another limited time coupon promotion is running at the CreativeLIVE website. Use coupon code DREAMON (one word, as in DREAM ON) to get 50% off the price of one class.
But that’s not all! CreativeLIVE is also offering limited time coupon code CREATENOW that gets you $50 off your first year of their “Creator Pass” Season Pass. This is a Netflix-style 1-year subscription that lets you watch most classes at their website whenever you want as long as your Netflix-style subscription is active.
Some classes are excluded from the “Creator Pass” – here is the exclusions page.
And if your schedule allows it, don’t forget to keep checking their ON-AIR schedule page for free-to-stream classes during the promotional windows…

But that’s not all ~ when you scroll further down, they have the “Insignia Mobile photography kit” for $40, and a 6-pack of Insigna CR2032 batteries for $6… All these for Sunday JAN-20-2019 in the central time zone [approximately]…
I don’t know if this promotion is targeted towards existing customers or anyone can use it, but good for a limited time, coupon code 15FROMCHASE gets you $15 off any class at the CreativeLIVE website.
On the other hand, if you prefer FREE-to-watch and have schedule-flexibility, their ON-AIR schedule page has a …schedule of the free-to-watch classes during the promotional ON-AIR streaming windows.
