Pentax K-5 now $919, K-30 vs K-5 Comparison

Price drop at B&H and DSLR comparison

By PF Staff in Deals and Savings on Jun 4, 2012

Following yesterday's nationwide price drop to $959, it seems than B&H photo is now matching the Amazon price of $919 for the Pentax K-5. This is an all-time low K-5 price from an authorized Pentax dealer in the US- even lower than the great Cyber Monday deal that was offered earlier this year. Now that only $70 separates the K-5 and new mid-range K-30 in terms of price, the decision for new camera buyers will be harder than ever, but we'd like to help you make the decision by offering a brief comparison of the two cameras!

Photoshop CC: $10 per month deal

Save big if you're a current Photoshop user

By PF Staff in Deals and Savings on Sep 28, 2013

Adobe has replaced their regular version upgrades of Photoshop with a subscription based model called Adobe Creative Cloud (CC). Before this change, each version of Photoshop was available boxed and came with a lifetime license.  Subsequent upgrades were in the $200 to $250 range.

Going forward, if one wants to continue to have access to the latest updates, an active subscription to Adobe CC is required.

The normal price for a Photoshop-only CC access is $19.99 per month, but we've recently stumbled accross a limited time offer that will allow you to lock in a monthly price of just $9.99 for life.  The only catch is that you need to be a current Photoshop owner.  If you are, then check out the deal here!  As a bonus, the subscription also includes Adobe Lightroom (which isn't part of Creative Cloud).  The offer expires at the end of the year (December 31st, 2013).

In order to make sure that this deal was real and not something "too good to be true", we decided to try it. Here is what we found out:

Pentax K-5IIs: $699

The lowest price at any authorized dealer

By PF Staff in Deals and Savings on Jan 20, 2014

Last year's Black Friday sale brought us many deals on the K-5 II DSLR, but not nearly as many attractive offers on the filterless K-5 IIs.  Today, all this changes: B&H and Adorama have slashed the price of the K-5 IIs to just $699, the lowest price from any US authorized dealer (including Amazon).  Enjoy this cool low price until the K-5 IIs is gone for good!

If you don't live in the US, keep in mind that B&H ships internationally, so this sale price may still be lower than your local price even with shipping and customs added on top.  International shipping costs depend on where you live; more information is available during checkout.
