Fuji Instax Wide with 20 film sheets for $100
Instant cameras may not be edible as instant noodles, but you can’t take pictures with the noodles (or can you???). The Fujifilm INSTAX Wide 300 Instant Film Camera is bundled with 20 sheets of Instax wide film (two 10pks) for the same price as the camera-only, $100 with free shipping at Adorama.

Pre-order new Fuji X-Pro2 Flagship for $1700

Pre-order Fuji X-E2S body for $700 (or w/18-55 for $1000)
The camera upgrade cycle continues with Fuji revealing an “S” version of the Fuji X-E2, the new X-E2S. I am not sure why companies keep insisting on using a final “s” in model name because that’s confusing both in terms of plural and possessive. But camera manufacturers are not under the juristiction of the Grammar Police, so they can get away with it 🙂 The X-E2S is available for pre-order in two options (body only for $700 or with the 18-55mm f2.8-4 R LM OIS for $1000), in either black or silver-black color schemes. Accepting pre-orders for these four combinations right now are Adorama and B&H Photo and Amazon by Amazon itself… This too has been added to the e Interesting Cameras and Lenses of 2016 Tracking page…
Pre-order new Fuji X70 Big Sensor Prime for $800

+ black: B&H Photo and Adorama and Amazon by Amazon itself
