If you’re looking for a nice little year-end tax deduction, or you just want to save a buck on some camera gear, we’ve got you covered. Here are a few great deals that expire today.
Lexar 32GB Class 10 SDHC card – $32.95
(just ordered one for myself) Class 10 speed rating with a maximum transfer speed of 15MB/s. A very good (probably the best you’ll find) price for a competent 32GB memory card. This card is good for all HD video cameras and still images on digital cameras up to entry-level DSLRs. If you want to know the ins and outs of what the SD card speed ratings and classifications mean, check out Demystifying SD Cards.
Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM – $1974
This deal has popped up and down a handful of times over the past couple months. For now, it looks like it will come to an end tonight. [click to continue…]

There have been some truly great cameras released this year that meet all sorts of photographers’ needs, including the Canon Rebel T3i, Canon 1D X, Nikon D5100, Sony NEX-5N, NEX-7 and NEX-C3, Sony A77 and A65, Olympus E-PM1, E-PL3 and E-P3, among plenty of others.
However, only one camera gets the honor, and that camera is the Fuji X100. Read on for the why. [click to continue…]

[Update: Also note the Canon DSLR and lens combo rebates that end on Jan. 7 as well.]

I like it. Here’s why. [click to continue…]
