Last checked: 12 November 2026. I go through these prices every week and every day during Black Friday week.
Every year there are hundreds of “deals” that aren’t really deals and a handful of genuinely good prices buried among them. This page is the short list: the Nikon Z cameras, lenses and gear I actually use and would recommend to a friend. When a real discount goes live, I add the price, the saving and the date I checked it. If something isn’t a good buy for you, I’ll say so.
Some links on this page are affiliate links. If you buy through them I may earn a small commission, at no extra cost to you. It helps keep my reviews and videos free and it never decides what goes on this page.
Black Friday 2026
Black Friday is on Friday 27 November and Cyber Monday is on 30 November, but plenty of shops start early. From now until Cyber Monday I’m checking the prices below every day and adding genuine deals as they go live.
Sales on right now
These aren’t Black Friday deals as such, but they’re running now and they’re genuinely worth knowing about.

Nikon Winter Savings and lens cashback
Nikon’s Winter Savings take from €20 to €1,000 (£20 to £1,000 in the UK) off selected cameras, lenses and binoculars. On top of that, if you buy a new Nikon Z camera you can claim up to €300 (£300) cashback on new NIKKOR Z lenses. The savings apply at Nikon’s own store and at Irish and UK dealers.
My take: if you’re buying a Z body and a lens anyway, the cashback is the bit to look at. Register the camera, then claim on the lens.

Neewer Super Sale: up to 50% off
Neewer’s Super Sale has up to 50% off lighting, flashes, stands, batteries and monitors on its own website, including the Z2 TTL round-head flash.
My take: I’m a Neewer ambassador and use their lights and flashes on my own shoots. My discount may stack on top of the sale prices, so try it at checkout.

My take: I’ve used the Z8 professionally for three and a half years. If it drops in price this week, it’s the one I’d buy for anyone who wants a single body that does everything.
✓ Buy it if you shoot wildlife, sport, events or a bit of everything.
✗ Skip it if you mainly shoot landscapes. The Z7II gives you similar image quality for far less.

My take: Still a superb high-resolution camera and older models often see the biggest Black Friday discounts.
✓ Buy it if you shoot landscapes, studio or architecture.

✓ Buy it if you shoot landscapes, astro or architecture and want f/2.8.

Why it’s here: a lighter, more compact S-line alternative to the 180-600 for wildlife, sport and landscapes, and it works with Nikon’s teleconverters.
✓ Buy it if you want S-line sharpness and reach in a lens you can carry all day.
✗ Skip it if you need 600mm for small birds. The 180-600 gives more reach for less money.

My take: The best-value long lens Nikon has ever made.
✓ Buy it if you shoot birds, wildlife, sport or compressed landscapes.
✗ Skip it if you rarely shoot beyond 200mm. It’s a big lens to carry for occasional use.

My take: A lens that genuinely changes what your portraits look like. It’s rarely discounted, so a real saving is worth jumping on.
✓ Buy it if portraits are what you shoot most.
✗ Skip it if you need something small. The 85mm f/1.8 S is excellent for a fraction of the price.

Why it’s here: Nikon’s showpiece portrait lens, famous for perfectly round bokeh right into the corners, and $400 off in the US.
✓ Buy it if you shoot portraits or weddings and want the most beautiful background blur Nikon makes.
✗ Skip it if you shoot in small rooms. 135mm needs space between you and your subject.

$399.99 US · 512GB · Adorama$699.99 US · 1TB · Adorama
The ProGrade Gold 4.0 cards in 512GB and 1TB are what I use most in my Nikon Z cameras. Make sure you get the Gen 4.0 version. Card prices have climbed a lot this year and neither size is discounted yet, so I’ll add the price here the moment that changes.
Memory cards · Alternative
Delkin Power G4 CFexpress 4.0 Type B
I haven’t tested these myself, but people I know use the Delkin G4 cards and have had similar results to my ProGrade cards. Worth a look if they’re cheaper on the day.

No deal on this one right now. I’m watching it and will add the price here as soon as a genuine discount goes live.
My take: Small, powerful and great value even at full price. Black Friday usually brings the bundles down further.
✓ Buy it if you want to start using off-camera flash.
✗ Skip it if you only shoot natural light.

Get the deals by email
Not everyone wants to check a web page every week. Once a week I send the best Nikon Z deals I’ve found straight to your inbox. It’s free and you can unsubscribe any time.
A gift that isn’t a gadget
If you’re buying for a photographer who already has everything, a photography workshop gift voucher is something different. Vouchers are emailed within minutes of purchase and have no expiry date. For Nikon Z owners, my Nikon Z Pro Guide apps make a great stocking filler too.

Got a new Nikon Z camera? Set it up properly
$15.99 Z8 Pro Guide app · Android and iOS
If you’re picking up a Z8 this Black Friday, my Z8 Pro Guide app walks you through the menus, autofocus and the settings I actually use, so you’re not lost in the manual on day one. Next week’s update adds downloadable, printable cheat sheets for the Z8 autofocus settings and my 15 best Z8 settings, plus a card-sized printout to keep in your bag.
My Z6III app is on the way too. Join the waitlist and you’ll hear the moment it’s out.
How I pick these deals
I only include gear I own, use or have properly tested. Before a deal goes on this page I check it against the normal price, so you won’t see inflated “was” prices here. If a price looks wrong or a deal has ended, let me know and I’ll fix it.
Frequently asked questions
How often is this page updated?
Every week and every day during Black Friday week and the January sales. The date at the top shows when I last checked the prices.
When is Black Friday 2026?
Black Friday is on Friday 27 November 2026 and Cyber Monday is on 30 November. Many retailers start their offers a week or two early.
Are Black Friday camera deals actually worth it?
Often, yes, especially on lenses and on cameras that have been out for a year or two. The trick is knowing the normal price, which is why every deal here shows the saving and the date I checked it.
Should I buy from Amazon, B&H or Adorama?
Check all three. Prices change hour by hour during Black Friday week. If you’re in Ireland or the UK, check import costs before buying from a US retailer.
Do you earn money from these links?
Sometimes, yes. If you buy through my links I may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. I only list gear I’d recommend anyway.
Do you have discount codes as well?
Yes. See the Deals & Codes menu for my codes for Luminar, ON1, Neewer, Godox and Formatt Hitech.
