Black Friday action camera and drone deals

GoPro Hero 13 Black accessory bundle for $349 (22 percent off): In my opinion, the best GoPro deal is the Hero 13 Black accessory bundle. Not only does it get you the company’s awesome video camera, capable of shooting up to 5.3K, but it also gives you two enduro batteries, a “Handler” grip, two curved adhesive units, a 64GB microSD card and a carrying case for the same price as the camera alone.
DJI Mini 4K Drone for $239 (20 percent off): The DJI Mini lives up to its name as it can shoot 4K 4K30p or 27K 60p video. It’s not bad at all for the price and the quality is surprisingly good. Best of all, it weighs less than 250 grams, so you don’t need any permits to fly it. The Fly More Combo is also discounted if you want to get it with extra batteries and a bag. 20 percent to $359.
DJI Osmo Action 4 action camera for $209 (30 percent off): Despite being replaced by the Action 5, DJI’s Osmo Action 4 is still a great action camera. It has a relatively large 1/1.3-inch sensor, so it’s great in low light and delivers 4K 120p video. You also get DJI’s Rocksteady 3.0 stabilization, long battery life, and a nice magnetic locking system.
Insta360 Ace Pro action camera for $300 (14 percent off): The Ace Pro is the first action camera with 8K recording that we haven’t seen yet from GoPro or DJI. Another unique feature is the flip-up selfie screen, which eliminates the need for a front screen. This is the lowest price we’ve ever seen for this model.
Insta360 X4 action camera for $425 (15 percent off): Insta360’s X4 sets the standard for 360 video with up to 8K resolution, and it’s the lowest price we’ve ever seen. Rugged and waterproof, it offers powerful image stabilization, an invisible selfie stick and fun video modes.

Black Friday mirrorless and compact camera deals

Canon EOS R100 dual-lens camera for $499 (40 percent off): This is one of Canon’s best camera deals, letting you pick up Canon’s small but mighty EOS R100 and two lenses that span from 18mm to 210mm (27-315mm full-frame equivalent). Its size makes it ideal for travel, and its selection of lenses will allow you to capture anything from people portraits to wildlife or bird shots.
Sony ZV-1 II camera for $698 (22 percent off): The ZV-1 II is the ideal vlog camera with features such as product display and background focus that make it easy for creators to get the perfect shot. The latest model has a wider zoom lens and a more intuitive touchscreen, so it’s better than ever for creators on the go.
Nikon Z8 camera for $3,497 (13 percent off): The Nikon Z8 is the most powerful hybrid camera you can get for the money, thanks to its 45.7-megapixel stacked sensor, incredible burst speed, high image quality and 8K RAW video recording. It stacks up on features compared to Canon’s slightly better R5 II, but it’s currently under $800.
Canon EOS R8 camera for $1,199 (20 percent off): The R8 features Canon’s excellent Dual Pixel AF with object recognition AI and can shoot bursts at up to 40fps. It’s equally powerful with video, supporting multi-sampling 10-bit 4K at up to 60 fps.
Panasonic Lumix S9 camera with 20mm-60mm lens $1498 (17% discount): This is one of the best deals on a full-frame creative camera we’ve seen. After testing one recently, I found it to be small but powerful, with reliable autofocus, awesome video quality, and those famous real-time LUTs so creators can get the perfect look without any fuss.
Sony A7 IV camera for $2,098 (16 percent off): Sony’s 33-megapixel A7 IV is the best mid-range mirrorless camera you can get, thanks to its great mix of speed, resolution and video capabilities. The biggest selling point is the reliable autofocus that ensures you get sharp photos almost every time.
