Top Black Friday Deals for Photo and Video

What was once traditionally associated with a strange phenomenon normally observed only in North America, for the past few years the “Black Friday Deals” frenzy has swooped through the Europe and pretty much the rest of the world as a thing that is here to stay. I am not even going to count the emails I’ve received in the past week asking me for Black Friday Deals “previews”/Pre-Black Friday Deals (is that even a thing now?) or some sort of “secret” savings on video and photo gear. Well, sorry to disappoint some of you, but I don’t have any “secret” deals to share, but the deals that I know of I will gladly share with all of you in this post.

So, without any further ado, in this post I will summarize (by category) the best deals I’ve found. So, if you are into filming videos or taking photos, and whether you are getting paid to do it, or just doing it for fun, do check out the deals below and save a few bucks.

Do note that many of the specials below will run through today, Friday and also Cyber Monday, however others may be limited to only today or another specific period of time, which will be annotated in the description of the deal. I will also do my best to update this post throughout the week and add more deals, so be sure to bookmark this post and re-visit it in the upcoming few days.
