\nBlack Friday doesn’t officially start until next Friday, November 27, but retailers are already offering some enticing discounts in the run-up to the big day. It’s not surprising: with a lockdown currently affecting England, and other restrictions in place across the UK, online shopping’s had a bumper year.<\/p>\n
So what are some of the best deals for photographers at the moment? Here’s a round-up of some of the top early-bird discounts from a range of retailers (not JUST Amazon as it’s really important we support independent retailers in these tough times, too).<\/p>\n
We also realise that a lot of people are looking to save money in these times of economic uncertainty, so we’re kicking off with some of the most eye-catching deals under \u00a31000. Over the next few days, we will be revealing some more great camera deals, along with savings on lenses and accessories.<\/p>\n\n\n
Pentax K-70<\/a>: now \u00a3499<\/a><\/strong>
\nFeatures include a 24.2 APS-C sensor, effective in-body image stabilisation that works with every lens, a large, bright viewfinder, a vari-angle LCD monitor and a good contingent of external controls, which makes it easy to change settings. “Overall, the K-70 offers great value and a solid set of features in a compact body that should be easy to use for beginners,” we said in our original review. “But equally, it will keep budding photographers happy for longer as their experience grows and they start to experiment with the more advanced features that it includes in abundance.”<\/p>\n
