Singles Day sales in progress
It’s Singles Day in Asia, but the world has many time zones, so the offers typically last closer to two days than 24 hours. If you are interested in participating in the festivities, check the websites of Ali Express and the GearBest store. Keep in mind that most of the items purchased ship from Asia, so depending on your location and shipping method selected the items may take up to two months to arrive. There’s usually an estimate range given, so pay attention to that…
Of photography interest, you may find good deals on some of the more budget-friendly Asian brands, for example Yongnuo and 7 Artisans and such. Their search box is your friend!
There’s more, for example one seller at Ali Express is offering Sandisk microSD cards on sale, from 16GB to 400GB (under $3 to $53)…

In-Stock alert: Photoshop for iPad (with 30-day free trial)
UPDATE: thanks to one of our readers for the alert ~ there’s a limited time Creative Cloud promotion that includes the Photoshop for iPad. Link coming later as I don’t have the email account on this device.
We have an in-stock alert of the iTunes App store kind! Apple has officially released Photoshop for iPad on iTunes with a 30-day free trial. After that they offer a $10/month subscription. This only includes the iPad iOS app, not the desktop versions of Photoshop. Otherwise it would have been major cannibilization of Adobe’s $$$profits$$$. A lot of the iTunes reviewers don’t appear to be very happy with the current version.
Note that only select iPads are supported, namely various PRO models, the Air 2, 5th generation iPad and the Mini 4. Also supported are the first two versions of the Apple Pencil. Looking at the compatibility list, the iPad line-up has become spaghetti without sauce 😉
