2020 Black Friday and Cyber Monday camera gear deals

24 Nov

Please note that this article will be updated over the course of the holiday week. We will make every effort to keep it up to date but we cannot guarantee that all of the deals listed below will be available at the time of reading.

Here in the US, we’re looking forward to Thanksgiving. While this year’s Turkey Day will be a little unusual thanks to you-know-what, some things remain the same. Holiday season traditionally means shopping season, and the week of Black Friday, Small Business Saturday and Cyber Monday deals is here.

We’ve compiled a list of the best offers on cameras, lenses, accessories and software, and we’re going to be updating this article regularly as more deals are listed and others are taken down. If you find a nice deal you think we’ve missed, or you notice one that’s expired, please let us know in the comments below.

Do note that the ‘SAVE’ figures below represent discount from original MSRP and we make no guarantees that the discounts listed will be available across the entire holiday weekend.

We’re focusing on deals from major U.S. online retailers in this article, and if you choose to shop via the Amazon links below, you’ll be supporting DPReview in a small way.

Happy holidays!

Love it or hate it, the deals weekend of the year is here, at least for our American readers. Between Black Friday, Small Business Saturday (yes, that’s a real thing) and Cyber Monday, there are deals aplenty.

We’ve scoured the web for discounts and have rounded up the best cameras, lenses and major accessories deals we could find. We’re going to try our best to update this article throughout the weekend, but if you see a deal that we’ve missed, paste it into a comment. If you’re posting a non-US deal, that’s great! Just flag it clearly.

Please note that the ‘SAVE’ figures below represent discount from original MSRP and we make no guarantees that the discounts listed will be available across the entire holiday weekend. If a deal has expired, let us know in a comment and we’ll remove it from this list.

Black Friday Cyber Monday Photography Deals

It’s that time of the year – if you’re looking for a good deal, then you’re sure to be on alert for the next few days! We’re taking the opportunity to re-launch two of our popular courses for the year with some big savings and great bonuses.

31 Days to Becoming a Better Photographer Course – Save $ 200

This course only opens a few times a year and is currently our only instructor-supported course with a dedicated Facebook group. Students have direct access to photographer Jim Hamel for 3 months, and they love it!

I have taken other on-line courses and found them not to as comprehensive as 31 Days to Becoming a Better Photographer. Since I took this course may photography has reach a whole new level. I am more confident in my camera settings; I have learned how to look and analyze the scene before I take the shot and not to be afraid to experiment. The concept of doing a daily photo after each lesson helps to put into practice what you have just learned. Jim Hamel is a wonderful instructor and I like that he is available for questions and answers back quickly. I have recommended this course to others that are just beginning. I also love the Facebook Group. It is such a supportive place for not just beginners but for photographers of all levels as we can always learn from each other.

Bett Cox

Canada

Usually $ 199, we are repeating the original launch special of just $ 49. And, if you buy in the next few days you’ll also get a $ 50 credit to spend on our Landscape & Nature Photography course below. But you don’t have to spend it now, because we know you’ll want to do the 31 Days course first – so we’re letting you claim it up until the 31st of March 2019. 

Act quickly if you want to get into the next intake of 31 Days to Becoming a Better Photographer because the will doors close for registration in less than two weeks. It’s one of the best ways to get your photography kickstarted for 2019.

Ready for something a little more challenging now? 

Landcape & Nature Photography Course – $ 237 in Bonuses

This was another popular video course we launched earlier this year with some great bonuses offered by instructor Johny Spencer. 

Exactly what I was looking for. Johny has a unique Aussie way about him and his enthusiasm comes through. Easy to follow and I can take all the information in during my own time. Good length individual segments. My equipment and photographic knowledge is vastly improved now I’m ready to get out there and try with confidence. A very worthwhile investment.

Bill Vincent

Now the bonuses are even better with the addition of 15 landscape and nature video masterclasses worth $ 150 (previously only available via his community membership). But you’ll need to be quick to grab this and two other bonuses during the Black Friday and Cyber Monday sale. And if the bonuses were not enough, we’ve also taken $ 50 off the course fee too.

US Army abruptly stops using DJI drones due to ‘cyber vulnerabilities’

05 Aug

A leaked US Army memo obtained by unmanned aviation news site sUAS News is making some waves in the drone world today. In the memo, the largest branch of the United States armed forces called for its units to “cease all use, uninstall all DJI applications, remove all batteries/storage media from devices, and secure equipment for follow on directions.”

The decision was reached by the US Navy and the US Army Research Lab, which identified ‘operational risks’ and ‘user vulnerabilities’ in DJI’s products.

The memo does not go into detail regarding the specific vulnerabilities, saying only that,

Due to increased awareness of cyber vulnerabilities associated with DJI products, it is directed that the U.S. Army halt use of all DJI products. This guidance applies to all DJI UAS and any system that employs DJI electrical components or software including, but not limited to, flight computers, cameras, radios, batteries, speed controllers, GPS units, handheld control stations, or devices with DJI software applications installed.

DJI’s public relations manager Michael Perry responded to the news in an e-mail to sUAS News, saying the company was ‘surprised and disappointed’ that the Army didn’t consult DJI during the decision process. “We are happy to work directly with any organization, including the U.S. Army, that has concerns about our management of cyber issues,” wrote Perry, saying that DJI would reach out to the US Army to confirm the memo and better understand what they mean by ‘cyber vulnerabilities.’
