This trio of B&H Photo offers is running for the next three days, running until Sunday at 11:59pm ET (or earlier if sold out). NOTE however that B&H is closed for the Passover Holiday, so any orders placed after Thursday 4/19 at 6pm ET, they will ship after Sunday April 28…

+ Tamron 28-75mm f2.8 XR Di for $369 in Canon and Nikon

+ JILL-E DESIGNS JACK Hudson Leather Camera Bag for $50

+ GVB Gear 162 Bicolor On-Camera LED Light with LCD Display and Shoe Mount Adapter for $40

Among the other daily deals, Woot Landia features a new condition 8TB Seagate Backup Plus external USB hard drive for $100 with a 90-day Woot warranty, and a $230 refurbished HP i5 Windoze laptop…

The headliner of the Best Buy dailies is a 10.5-inch iPAD PRO sale starting at $550 for 64GB, $600 (Rose Gold) to $620 for 256GB, and $700 to $720 for 512GB… There’s also open-box options (YMMV) starting at $478… There’s so many iPads nowadays I need to look up the line-up in Wikipedia, I can no longer remember them :)… Given the storage/usability jump from 64GB to 256GB and the lack of microSD, the +$100 Apple tax to jump from 64GB to 256GB is not unreasonable. Unlike the old days where +$100 got you from 16GB to 32GB or 32GB to 64GB 🙂 That’s what happens when sales start stagnating 🙂

Meanwhile in Europe…
Unless it gets extended again, today is the last day at the Amazon Germany Spring Sale Gold Box and this set does not have a dedicated camera sale, but there are some photo-related items:
