Amazon, not content with Prime Day, seems to be leading the charge with some big discounts that can be beneficial for photographers and filmmakers at the moment. Mainly, that means storage. We’ll have our usual Black Friday deals post coming on Friday, but here are the best storage deals we’ve seen on Amazon so far this week. We’ll update this post as we spot more.

Adobe kicks off their Black Friday sale early with up to 70% off Creative Cloud plans

by Leave a Comment

Adobe has just published their Black Friday deals and not only are they running some very attractive offers but they’re starting the sale early. As of today, you can get 40% off an Adobe Creative Cloud membership plan containing the entire CC suite of applications for individuals, almost 40% for businesses and almost 70% if you’re a student or teacher.

There is, naturally, a caveat. This cost is only good for a year. You can’t pre-pay for a decade at the reduced price. But, you’ll be locked into this price for the next 12 months and that’s all you’ll pay. When it comes time to renew, it’ll come back up to regular price – unless Adobe runs a similar deal in 2022 and you can get a reduced rate again next year.

But that doesn’t mean you can’t find some good deals. We’ve been looking around the web to find some of the best Black Friday deals and put them all together in a single location for you. We’ll be updating this post throughout the course of Black Friday and Cyber Monday, so keep checking back!

How to get the $156 Adobe Black Friday discount, even for existing subscribers

by 3 Comments

Adobe has a great sale for Black Friday. They are selling their all-apps subscription that usually costs around $52.99/month for only $39.99/month. No doubt that this is a great bargain, but there is a caveat. This deal is only available to new customers. If you are already an Adobe customer, you would have to keep paying your usual $52.99.

There is a way around this though, that lets you get the new price. But first, a word about newcomers get a discount sales. If you don’t care about that, just jump to the end of the post.

How to spend $1,000,000 on photography gear at B&H this Black Friday

by 3 Comments

While the world is looking for bargains today, we thought we’d look at the opposite end of the spectrum, the most expensive gear we could find on the B&H website this Black Friday. Our plan was to produce a setup that, if you won the lottery, you might actually consider buying. Gear that should work well together, and costs a ludicrous amount of money.

Can we actually spend $1,000,000 on photography gear? On a kit that could actually serve a useful purpose? I mean, sure, we could spend $233K on just one lens and adapt it to a Sony, but where’s the fun in that? Ok, scratch that, it does sound kinda fun, but it’s not exactly practical, is it? And that’s what we’re trying to look at here.
