dSLR Dad

I’ve already compared both Best Buy and Circuit City’s Black Friday deals with B&H Photo Video.  So you already know about their various  Canon, Nikon, and Sony camera specials.  B&H Photo, however has some other deals that a dSLR Dad may be interested in:

• Canon EOS 40D SLR Digital Camera with Canon 28-135mm Lens for $1,006.95.
• Epson Stylus Photo R280 Inkjet Printer for $29.95.  This is a great value on an Epson printer that uses their long-lasting Claria Hi-Definition Inks.  Heck, a full set of ink would cost you $56.  Add some of the excellent Epson Ultra Premium Luster, Exhibition Fiber, or Ilford Galerie Gold Fibre Silk papers and you will produce some fantastic prints.
• Sony Alpha DSLR-A700 Digital Camera Body for $999.99
• Olympus E-520 dSLR Camera with 14-42mm Lens and E510 Gadget Bag for $497.95.
• Free shipping on all Nikon Cameras.
• Up to $125 instant savings on various Canon Lenses and Flashes.
• Four Day Black Friday Special on 4GB and 8GB Sandisk Extreme III Class 6 SDHC Flash Memory.  These are the previous 15MB/s Extreme III cards, but they are still very fast and a great value.
• Samsung SyncMaster 245T 24-inch Widescreen LCD Computer Display for $619.95.

I’ve already compared both Best Buy and Circuit City’s Black Friday deals with Amazon.com.  So you already know about their Canon dSLR, Lenses, and Speedlite savings as well as $75 to $600 off all Nikon dSLR Cameras. Amazon, however has some other deals that a dSLR Dad may be interested in:

This year’s Black Friday ads are beginning to pop-up around the internets.  The only question that remains for any dSLR Dad:

Will I be able to find a good deal standing in line when it’s dark and freezing cold outside, or should I just order online?

Circuit City is offering Sony DSLR-A350, Nikon D60, and Canon EOS Rebel XS dSLR camera combinations (two each) for sale.  The Olympus E-420 and Canon EOS 40D dSLR Cameras are also discounted.  For comparison, I have included both Amazon.com and B&H Photo Video prices at the time of this publication:

It is a good time to be a dSLR Dad, especially if you actually have some cash this holiday season.  Amazon.com has the 10.2 Megapixel Nikon D200 dSLR Camera Body available for only $799.98!  For those dSLR Dad’s who were looking at either the Nikon D90 or an older D80, the D200 offers you a lot of value:

• 10.2 Megapixel DX-Format CCD (3,872 x 2,592 pixels).
• 11-area Multi-CAM Autofocus system (convertible to a 7-wide area AF system).
• Fast 5 frames-per-second continuous shooting (22 NEF RAW-file bursts).
• 1005-pixel 3D RGB Color Matrix Metering II system
• dSLR Dad durable Magnesium alloy chassis.
• 2.5 inch LCD.
• Screw motor drive works with all Nikon F-mount lenses.
• i-TTL Creative Lighting System build-in to command Nikon Speedlights wirelessly.

The Nikon D200 dSLR Camera is available now at Amazon.com. If you are not sure what lens to pick up, may I suggest Nikon’s new AF-S DX Nikkor 18-105mm F/3.5-5.6G ED Vibration-Reduction (VR) Zoom Lens or the ever popular and versatile AF-S DX 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 G ED-IF VR Zoom-Nikkor Lens.
