B&H Mega Deal Zone: 77 Lens options participating

I accidentally started a B&H Photo Mega Deal Zone Marathon of Posts. I couldn’t possibly do this without a specific lens-centric post!

As of the time of writing there are 58 lenses participating including:

+ Sigma 12-24mm f4 DG HSM Art for $849
+ IRIX primes, including the 150mm f2.8 Macro 1:1 for $430 in Pentax K, Nikon F, Canon EF
+ lots and lots of Lensbabies
+ insert never-ending debate [whether they are “real” lenses or not] here

BUT WAIT, there’s more! There are 19 lenses in the Video Lenses category, from Sirui and Viltrox, many of them anamorphic.

PS: in the search-listings, each individual lens option counts as one. For example, if an imaginary 50mm 1.8 lens is available in six mounts, it will show up as six listings in the search results.

Amazon loves YOU so much they have bought another company so they can offer the One Medical service for $144 prepaid total for the first 12 months ($12 per month). They have explainers and FAQs there to explain what exactly they offer. The new Amazon CEO (I believe his name is Not Bezos) issued a Welcome Letter to launch the whole thing.

The above is open to all customers regardless of Prime status.

Previously launched but lesser known, for Prime members only, they have the RX Pass prescription service. For $5 per month you can get your prescriptions filled for select generic medications for common ailments, and you only pay $5 per month regardless of how many different participating prescriptions you need filled per month. About 50 common generic prescriptions are covered by this. Generic, thus the $5/month price.

Check the terms, conditions restrictions and all that before jumping in!
