There’s never been a better time to buy one of the last generation of high-resolution DSLRs from one of the big Japanese makers. They are focussing all their attention on mirrorless cameras (apart from Ricoh/Pentax), so there are some great deals to be had

One of the last great truly great DSLRs to come out was the full-frame Nikon D850. In our original review, we praised it for being ‘the perfect blend of high-resolution, speed and performance. It is possibly the high-water mark of DSLR design – a classic.’

Via this Amazon bundle deal, you can get the Nikon D850 DSLR with a camera bag, cleaning kit, capacious 128MB memory card (SanDisk) and much more for $1,999. Ok, there is no lens, but Nikon F mount lenses are great value and there is a vast choice. Stock is limited on the D850 though so don’t delay.

Nikon D850 key features

  • 45.4million-pixel FX format sensor
  • 55-point AF system
  • Nikon F-mount
  • Wireless functionality
  • ISO 64-102,400
  • Records up to 4K video at 60fps

I love this ‘all-rounder’ camera – save money in this big bundle deal https://amateurphotographer.com/latest/photo-news/i-love-this-all-rounder-camera-save-money-in-this-big-bundle-deal/ Tue, 02 Sep 2025 13:23:49 +0000 https://amateurphotographer.com/?p=258548 For enthusiast photographers, few cameras match the Fujifilm X-T5. Its great resolution and powerful features make it a lovely choice - especially in this value bundle.

Fujifilm is making hay with its APS-C and medium format cameras, showing that full frame is certainly not the only game in town for photographers in the market for a new camera.

One of the best Fujifilm cameras is the Fujifilm X-T5, which I believe is one of the best all-rounder cameras you can buy, full-frame or not. It’s a real ‘photographer’s camera’ with a wide range of manual controls but is also easy for relative newcomers to use.

This unbeatable camera comes with Fujifilm’s superb range of in-body film simulations to enjoy, along with a big choice of lenses – not just from Fujifilm, but also from ‘budget’ makers such as Viltrox (now part of the L-Mount Alliance).

Via this Amazon US bundle deal, you can now get the Fujifilm X-T5 in a 14-item bundle, including an extra battery and charger kit, tripod, backpack, camera case, cleaning equipment and more. That’s a lot of gear for $2,101

Fujifilm X-T5 key features

  • 40.2MP APS-C X-Trans CMOS 5 HR sensor
  • ISO 125-12,800 (standard); ISO 64-51,200 (extended)
  • 15fps shooting (mechanical shutter, full-resolution); 20fps (electronic shutter, 1.3x crop, 24MP file)
  • 6.2K 30p / 4K 60p video
  • 5-axis in-body image stabilisation
  • 3.69m-dot EVF, 0.8x magnification
  • 3in, 1.84m-dot 3-way tilt LCD

Full-frame mirrorless camera with great everyday lens – big price fall! https://amateurphotographer.com/latest/deals/full-frame-mirrorless-camera-with-great-everyday-lens-big-price-fall/ Sun, 31 Aug 2025 15:40:26 +0000 https://amateurphotographer.com/?p=258484 Don't miss this great deal on the Sony Alpha A7 III, with its 24.2MP full frame sensor - you get a Sony 28-70mm lens too

The post Full-frame mirrorless camera with great everyday lens – big price fall! appeared first on Amateur Photographer.

If you are not so hung up on having a relatively recent camera, the Sony Alpha A7III is still a very good choice and it is now even lower in price, complete with lens.

The camera came out in 2018, which seems a long time ago in technology terms, but it still packs a lot of great features. The Sony Alpha A7III was was the third generation in Sony’s entry-level full-frame mirrorless A7 series, offering a new sensor, improved speed, upgraded autofocus and impressive battery life.

Via this Amazon deal, you can now get the Sony Alpha A7III with the 28-70mm Sony kit lens for a tempting $1698, a price cut of nearly 20%. The last time we ran a deal post on this camera and lens combo it was nearly $2k. You do the math!

Sony Alpha A7III key features

  • 24.2MP BSI-CMOS full-frame sensor
  • ISO 100-204800 (extended)
  • 10fps shooting
  • 4K video recording
  • 5-axis in body stabilisation

It's a fabulous full-frame choice

With a 45.7MP full-frame sensor, the Nikon Z7 II remains one of the best mirrorless cameras in its price sector. And it’s now even cheaper!

The Nikon Z7 II is one of Nikon’s finest high resolution mirrorless cameras. As we said in our original review, it is remarkably impressive and offers magnificent latitude when processing raw files.

Other compelling features include great low-light performance, 5-axis in-body image stabilisation, 10fps continuous shooting (Single AF) and 4K/60p video. You can now get the Nikon Z7 II for $1946.95, which is a good price for such a powerful camera.

For customers in the UK the deals are even better, with the price of the Nikon Z7 II cut to £1799 on Park Cameras, a significant saving.

Nikon Z7 II key features

  • Nikon Z-mount
  • 45.7MP full-frame BSI CMOS sensor
  • Dual EXPEED 6 image processors
  • ISO 64-25,600 (expandable to ISO 32-102,400)

One of the best budget full-frame cameras gets even cheaper! https://amateurphotographer.com/latest/deals/one-of-the-best-budget-full-frame-cameras-gets-even-cheaper/ Thu, 28 Aug 2025 13:18:25 +0000 https://amateurphotographer.com/?p=258376 The Canon EOS RP is now cheaper than ever and it's one of the cheapest full-frame cameras you can buy new.

If you are looking for all the benefits of a full-frame camera but don’t want to pay a full-fat price, then the Canon EOS RP is a great choice – check out this Amazon deal, with a versatile lens.

There is a lot to like about the Canon EOS RP. As we said in our original review, ‘with the EOS RP, Canon has revealed its vision for how entry-level full-frame mirrorless should look…. Rather than simply porting across the existing EOS DSLR interface, it’s employed some clever new ideas, such as the Dial Function setting and Fv exposure mode. The JPEG output is excellent, giving images that are perfectly usable at sensitivities up to ISO 12,800.’

Via this latest Amazon deal, you can now pick up the Canon EOS RP with the versatile Canon RF 24-105mm F4-7.1 lens for just $1099. That’s a great price for a camera with a high-res sensor, good low-light performance and 4k video recording. Plus a decent lens!

Canon EOS RP key features

  • 26.2MP Full-frame sensor
  • ISO 50-102,400 (extended)
  • 5fps continuous shooting
  • 2.36m-dot electronic viewfinder
  • 3-in 1.04m-dot fully-articulated touchscreen
  • 4K video at 25p

This bumper superzoom-camera deal gives you a complete system https://amateurphotographer.com/latest/deals/this-bumper-superzoom-camera-deal-gives-you-a-complete-system/ Tue, 26 Aug 2025 15:59:58 +0000 https://amateurphotographer.com/?p=258150 Featuring a 25-400mm equivalent lens, the Panasonic Lumix FZ1000 II is a great superzoom camera choice - check out this big Amazon bundle offer!

Bridge, or superzoom cameras, remain popular, even more so now that there is a something of a compact camera renaissance. Not everyone wants to haul around a bag of delicate, clanking lenses, so it’s easy to understand why they continue to sell well.

The Panasonic Lumix FZ1000 II was launched back in early 2019 – yet this interesting bridge camera still has a lot to offer, and you can now get it at a good price in this Amazon bundle deal.

As well as the camera, you get a 64GB card, case, filter kit and more!

The 1-inch MOS Sensor delivers 20-megapixels of resolution while a 16x optical zoom offers an equivalent focal length of 25-400mm. This is at the lower end of what you would expect from a bridge camera’s focal length, but is still enough to help capture wildlife imagery without the need to get up close to shy and elusive subjects.

As you’d expect from Panasonic, with its pedigree in stabilising technology, the FZ1000 II benefits from a 5-axis In Body Image Stabilisation (IBIS) system that helps keep shots sharp, particularly at longer focal lengths where shake can be more prevalent.

Panasonic Lumix FZ1000 II key features

  • 20.1MP MOS, 1inch sensor
  • 25-400mm equivalent lens, f/2.8-4.0
  • Up to 30fps shooting (in 4K Photo Mode)
  • 4K video recording
  • Weight: 810g (with battery and card)

One of my favourite lenses for bird and travel photos gets cheaper https://amateurphotographer.com/latest/deals/one-of-my-favourite-lenses-for-bird-and-travel-photos-gets-cheaper/ Mon, 25 Aug 2025 10:53:18 +0000 https://amateurphotographer.com/?p=258077 You can’t go wrong with the Olympus 300mm F4 Pro lens – it’s light and well-priced, despite its long reach, and is now cheaper

While a top-quality telephoto prime lens is never going to be exactly cheap, you can get some good deals if you shop around. The Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 300mm F4.0 IS PRO is a great example.

Recently I posted a field test of the Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 300mm F4.0 IS PRO, explaining why I think it’s one of the best-value lenses for bird photography. While 300mm might not seem a lot for distant objects, it becomes 600mm on Micro Four Thirds cameras such as those from OM System and Panasonic.

At the same time, the lens is relatively fast at f/4 and reasonably light and compact – it only weighs 1270g so you can easily get it into a small bag, even with the strict carry-on bag restrictions imposed by budget airlines. The versatility and portability also makes the Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 300mm F4.0 IS PRO great for travel photography.

Via this Amazon deal, the lens is 10% cheaper at $2699.99 and it’s money well spent. This is not a lens you will outgrow quickly!

Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 300mm F4.0 IS PRO key features

  • Filter diameter: 77mm
  • Lens elements: 17
  • Groups: 10
  • Diaphragm blades: 9, circular
  • Aperture: f/4 to f/22
  • Minimum focus: 1.4m
  • Length: 227mm
  • Diameter: 92.5mm
  • Weight: 1,270g
  • Lens mount: Micro Four Thirds

If you wish to expand your creative arsenal to record video as well as taking great stills – become a ‘content creator’ in other words – there is now a great deal on the Canon EOS R50. And it’s a great deal even if you aren’t that interested in video!

Featuring a 24MP APS-C sensor, up to 15fps shooting and 4K 30p video recording, the Canon EOS R50 is a smart buy if you are looking to buy your first standalone camera, or progressing from a smartphone for photos and video.

Via this Amazon US deal you can now get the Canon EOS R50 with the versatile 18-45mm and 55-210mm lenses, along with a smart and capacious Canon and shoulder bag and 64GB Extreme PRO memory card. In other words, a complete Canon starter system, for just $1,129.

The EOS R50 is Canon’s best entry level camera, according to our tough-to-please technical editor, Andy Westlake – see his original review.

Canon EOS R50 key features

  • 24.2MP APS-C sensor
  • Up to 15fps shooting
  • 4K 30p video recording
  • 2.36m-dot, 0.59x electronic viewfinder

Looking for a small but powerful mirrorless camera? This bumper Nikon bundle is a real money saver https://amateurphotographer.com/latest/deals/looking-for-a-small-but-powerful-mirrorless-camera-this-bumper-bundle-nikon-deal-is-very-hard-to-beat/ Wed, 20 Aug 2025 15:14:47 +0000 https://amateurphotographer.com/?p=257821 The Nikon Z50II makes a lot of sense at this price, particularly as you also get a lens, two memory cards and a whole lot more!

If you are looking to keep your costs down along with the weight of your camera bag, the Nikon Z50II is a very tempting choice, offering excellent image quality, particularly in raw, and a high-quality viewfinder.

Via this Amazon US deal you get the Nikon Z50II, the Nikkor Z DX 16-50mm f/3.5-6.3 VR lens, a useful backpack, TWO 64GB Lexar Professional memory cards, an LED light, a basic filter kit, a mini tripod, a SD card and more! That’s a good haul for just $1429.99.

Admittedly the software is a bit bargain basement, but you can get an affordable Lightroom subscription with the money you have saved, so it’s a win win.

The Nikon Z50II is designed as an entry level camera or for people upgrading from phones, but that doesn’t mean it’s dumbed down. Indeed, it offers quite a few advanced features including 4k video. It sits roughly alongside the beautifully retro-styled Zfc in Nikon’s line-up, although with the latest tech on board, it’s somewhat more advanced.

Nikon Z50II key features

  • 20MP DX-format CMOS sensor
  • ISO 100-51,200 (standard)
  • Up to 11fps continuous shooting
  • 4K 30p video recording; 4K 60p with 1.5x crop
  • 2.36m-dot, 0.68x EVF with 1000-nit brightness 3.2in, 1.04m-dot fully articulated touchscreen

With an updated body design, brighter viewfinder, much-improved autofocus, and more advanced video features, the Nikon Z50II is a great camera for this price, particularly with everything else thrown in!
