Mon: Zeiss Distagon T* 25mm f2 (ZE) for $749, Etc

Hooray, once again a lens is headlining the Monday daily deals at B&H Photo, it is the Zeiss Distagon T* 25mm f/2 ZE (Canon EF mount) going for $749 with free US shipping. Unfortunately for Nikon fans, the Nikon mount option is discontinued at B&H and obviously cannot be ordered or pre-ordered.

The other three offers:

+ Delkin Fat Gecko Triple Mount for $60
+ Samson G-Track Pro USB Microphone with Built-In Audio Interface for $70
+ Pelican 1920B MityLite LED Flashlight for $17

Meanwhile at Amazon Germany Gold Box they are offering Philips TVs and Acer Swift laptops among their daily offerings…

UPDATE: at Woot Computers their daily deal is a refurbished 11.6″ Lenovo Thinkpad 11e Chromebook (Celery N3160, 4GB RAM, 16GB on-board, card reader, bluetooth, HDMI, USB 3.0, etc) for $100 with a 90-day Woot warranty. Creepy Google and all, there’s something very relaxing when you own a laptop that does NOT ever need to use Windows Update 🙂

Used Fuji X-T1 body with EF-X8 Flash for $379

IF you are looking for a budget entry but with an advanced camera in the Fuji X System, currently KEH Camera is offering the Fuji X-T1 body only with the EF-X8 flash, together bundled for $379 in “EX” condition and with a 180-day warranty. This is the black color scheme, not the graphite.

IF you prefer a new condition without a warranty, Massdrop is offering the X-T1 body only without the EF-X8 flash, for $500.

Needless to say, Fuji has unleashed a number of X-system cameras, so there are many choices out there, enough to give you a three tylenol headache 😉

PS: if you haven’t visited KEH recently, they have remodeled/modernized their web user interface…

Samsung EVO Select microSDXC cards: 64GB for $11, 128GB for $21, 256GB for $48

According to the internets, the “EVO Select” is an Amazon-exclusive brand of Samsung memory cards, giving Amazon the flexibility to play with the price without being beholden to the MAP situation of the “EVO Plus” cards…

… which brings us to the 256GB Samsung EVO Select microSDXC card (U3, UHS-I, with SD adapter) going for $48 with free US shipping. Limit one per customer at the sale price. It is not a lightning deal…

If you don’t need the 256GB size, on the same listing you will find the 128GB version for $21 and that you can buy as many as you like… The 64GB goes for $11 [which I bought for $20 in April of last year according to the Amazon page]…
