Fuji XF 27mm f2.8 Lens (no warranty) for $290 w/free S&H

Also at the Massdrop website, with the offer running for the next six days and a few hours, you can get the new condition Fujifilm XF 27mm f2.8 lens for $290 with free USA shipping and handling. This will ship in mid-March 2018, and all sales are final. There is no warranty with it, so factor that in the price. It is a simple pancake lens, which reduces the risk of damage, but still, it’s up to you to decide your risk matrix parameters.

Giottos YTL8384 Carbon Fiber Tripod for $200 w/free S&H

Massdrop is a membership-style shopping website because some of their offers are below MAP. So you have to create a free account to participate in most activities, including buying. This is also a “group buy” style shopping website, so everything ships after the promotion ends. Shipping is typically slow and there’s no option for expedited shipping. If you find Prime 2-day shipping takes too long, then this mayhaps it is not for you 🙂 It’s a different model, so read up on it if you are not familiar with this approach.

Over there, running for the next two days and a few hours (as of writing time), you can get the new condition Giottos YTL8384 Carbon Fiber Tripod for $200 with free USA shipping and handling. These will ship at the end of February. All sales are final! The orders will be shipped by the vendor and come with a 2-year limited warranty.
