For a recap of some of the newly announced and newly released products, Adorama has created the New in May summary page. Some items on that page are in-stock, some are in pre-order, some are on sale.
Adorama also appears to be experimenting with a new design on their product pages, YMMV if you see it (web experiments are often spread out randomly or based on OS/browser/viewport combos online, Amazon constantly does this to the point of frustration), here’s a screenshot:
Zoom-zoom now, the Tamron 16-300mm f/3.5-6.3 Di II VC PZD MACRO Lens is bundled with 4% promotional rewards (around $20 to be used in future B&H purchases) along with the Hoya 67mm UV Haze NXT HMC Filter, all together for $499 with free shipping in the Canon EF mount and the Sony A mount.

More things uncovered while updating the Stock Status Tracker, the Canon 77D body only has now dropped from $900 to $850, AND it is getting its first bundle of FREE accessories at Adorama: Corel software bundle, 16GB SD card, 24×7 Traffic Collection camera bag, Bower 20 memory card wallet, and the obligatory trinkets, card reader and cleaning kit.
The other two kits have also dropped in price, the w/18-55 is $1000 with free accessories (you are paying +$150 for the 18-55 lens) while the with 18-135mm kit dropped to $1250 but no free accessories (you are paying $400 more to get the 18-135 lens).

Two-lens bundles in a manufacturer box are the Loot Crate equivalent of photography. Okay, not quite that, but Canon’s new 2-lens bundle of the Canon EF 17-40mm f4L USM AND the Canon EF 50mm f1.4 USM is now on sale for $849 with free shipping at Adorama. On their own, the two lenses go for $750 and $330 respectively, making it a value play if you need/want both lenses, or don’t mind gifting/selling/trading the one you don’t want.
There’s no doubt Tamron (affectionately called “Tammy” by some) would be Tammy Wynette’s favorite lens manufacturer. which brings us to a new round of mail-in rebates and instant discounts on select lenses, organized by B&H Photo. The lenses are:

+ 24-70/2.8 Di VC USD for $1100 after $200 MIR

This is blog-certified to be Tamron, not Tokina. I am posting this because I often mistype the two 🙂
