p.1 #7 · B&H Photo started a new three-day Mega Deal Zone (June 20-22)
What a weird collection of bargain-basement clear-outs. I keep an eye on various deals at B&H and most of these are nothing new from what I can tell, mostly just the usual stuff that's always on sale -- and missing some actual good deals.
I just picked up the fastest 128GB Sandisk V90 SD card for $109, for example, which is $90 off list and a deal that I did not find in this list of "deals" at all (although the price went up today to $119, which is still a pretty good deal nonetheless). The only two Sandisk SD cards listed in these "Mega Deals" were slowpoke UHS-I versions. Lexar cards have also been heavily discounted for the past few weeks as well.
We live in an era of ever fluctuating online prices where regular price checks are often rewarded with un-announced discounts and "sales events" are usually nothing of the sort.

I’m pretty sure these B&H Mega sales are mostly just the products that have been offered as daily deals over the last few months all on sale at the same time. So they’ve been offered at these prices before but if you missed it then you get another chance.

I find B&H's deal zone is fastly approaching fleabay status. I guess that's a way for B&H to give those listed items some exposure that they would otherwise never receive.

For even more stuff we didn't think of buying until we see a sale - wait for - Amazon Prime Day 7/11-12 :-)
Rarely is Amazon's Prime day is anything worth buying. Always the junk no one want's.
On this Mega Deal Zone I was waiting for the Ruggard 600 backpack to go on sale again. It's a knockoff of the Vanguard Alta Sky 66 that is like $275. This Ruggard is normally $140 and on sale for $80. The reason is I can put my Z9+800PF attached without having to reverse the lens hood.

Pelican and Nanuk cases are on good discount there. Not sure how often those are on sale, but I bought my old pelican case for twice more than its current on-sale price. Comparing to Amazon, ... amazon prices were not-inspiring. I got a couple of long overdue Nanuk cases, so stuff does not lie around.

They had great deals going on the IRIX 11/4, 15/2.4, and 150/2.8 in EF, F, and K. The prices look to still be available on some mounts, mostly EF, while supplies last. If you're still shooting an SLR or don't mind adapting, they're great lenses at a great price.
