If I have to be honest, the Black Friday camera deals have been a bit disappointing this year. I’ve been reporting on holiday sales for years, and camera prices for decades — and I just don’t think Cyber ​​sales offer the truly brilliant bargains of yesteryear.

Of course, there are some good discounts on some older models that I highly recommend – like on the Canon EOS R5 for $2,799but it is not a model that will suit all budgets, and the price drop is easily explained by the launch of the Canon EOS R5 Mark II.
