Black Friday 2017

Happy Thanksgiving, for those who are celebrating it.  That means Black Friday is not far behind.  Far from the maddening crowds, online offers are available.

Polaroid Originals is offering a 20% discount on all triple film packs, which include some specially made for the occasion.  Also on sale is the Impossible I-1 camera, at an impressive 50% off.  Starting Thursday night.

Japan Camera Hunter has a few items on sale.  KEH Camera is extending its 180-day warranty to a 365-day warranty on lenses and cameras rated from LN to BGN.  Offer ends December 31st, 2017.

Paterson Photographic is offering a free ball head with the purchase of any Benbo monopod from November 24th to 27th.

Interested in a pinhole lens for your camera?  There is a Kickstarter for that.  Thingyfy is offering a pinhole camera ``lens' for just $38 plus shipping.  This pinhole lens is different from body cap pinhole lenses.  It actually looks nice, it features a 58mm filter thread and the price is competitive.  Available in 7 different mounts.  The Minolta A, Nikon F and Pentax K mounts would be the relevant options for film cameras.  Also offered is the pinhole lens previously offered by Thingyfy in another Kickstarter.  The project is already funded 7x over, being funded in 2.5 hours.

Disclaimer:  your blogger is invested in the pinhole lens offered by Thingyfy.
