“If you’re even contemplating spending almost £1500 on a macro lens, you’ll want to know that it’ll deliver the goods. Thankfully, the Canon RF 100mm F2.8 L Macro IS USM most certainly does.

Fujifilm’s original Instax Mini Link was one of our favourite accessories of 2019, and it’s been updated with the Fujifilm Instax Mini Link 2 with some new features. At heart, it’s essentially the same device, namely a small portable printer that connects to your smartphone or tablet via Bluetooth, and then prints your photos onto Instax Mini film via the free Mini Link app. But it’s more than just a simple printer, as the app includes an array of additional features, some of which are practical and creative, and others that are just a bit of fun.

The post Black Friday deals: Save $500 on the new Nikon Z8 AND a lens! appeared first on Amateur Photographer.

A one-year subscription to just Lightroom now costs only £54,99, a huge saving of 54%, down from £119.21. Since many users pay for Lightroom as part of the Photography Plan, which costs £10 a month, you can see the savings if you don’t use Photoshop much.

This killer offer includes a humungous 1TB of storage. Note, however, this is the cloud-based Lightroom, not Lightroom Classic, but it does include Lightroom Mobile.

Lightroom is regularly updated, the new lens blur feature being a great example.

Adobe Creative Cloud: Photography Plan price-buster

For the standard one year Photography Plan, which includes Lightroom, Lightroom Classic, Lightroom Mobile and Photoshop, Adobe has slashed the price to £68.99, a saving of 43%. Essentially, you are getting the full 12 month package for the same money as a seven-month subscription!

Lightroom Classic is my favourite desktop-based photo editor

I use Lightroom as my main processing tool for raw files, as well as general photo-editing – the beauty of Lightroom is that you can add a wide-range of plug-ins, which really turbocharge the program, such as DxO PureRAW and Topaz Denoise AI.

I’ve been a Lightroom user for years and I swear by it – Adobe has added some really great features recently, such as easy sky and subject selection and AI Denoise.

Photoshop, meanwhile, is fantastic for its masking and layering tools, plus a whole lot more. If you’re not sure what it offers for photographers, have a look at our Adobe Photoshop review, or have a look at our guide to Photoshop vs Lightroom.

Adobe Creative Cloud: full suite bargain

Last but not least, there is also a great offer on the full Adobe Creative Cloud suite, which includes all iterations of Lightroom, plus Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign and Adobe’s principal tool for generating AI content, Firefly.

You can get the full suite for £354.99, which is a massive saving of 46%.

It’s Canon’s entry-level APS-C mirrorless camera in the EOS R series, and as such, has a more basic camera body design. But it does offer Canon’s 24MP APS-C sensor, along with Canon’s reliable colour reproduction and easy to use controls.

The Canon EOS R8 looks mostly the same as the Canon EOS RP with a similar body size, and a 24.2MP full-frame sensor of about the same resolution. The key difference is in the fantastic subject-detect autofocus system from the high-end Canon EOS R6 Mark II, which gives it one of the most reliable autofocus systems among any camera at a comparable price point.

This lens is among the longest telephoto zooms in Canon’s EOS R series and although we’re looking at a lens that has a variable aperture as opposed to a fixed maximum aperture, it has a versatile zoom range that we’ve found well suited to a wide range of genres.
