Best Black Friday Camera Gear Deals

The highly anticipated Black Friday sale has started early, and this post explores the Best Black Friday Camera Gear Deals in 2025, so you know what to buy, and when.

We spotlight some of the best deals on many of the world’s favourite photography brands, including from Canon, Nikon, Sony and Fujifilm, and many more.

So without further ado, let’s start by answering whether today is the time to take the plunge, or should you wait.

Best Black Friday Camera Gear Deals 2025

Should I Buy Now or Wait for Black Friday Itself?

Black Friday deals have already begun with several major brands beginning early in 2025, and one of the most common questions is whether it’s better to wait for the day or shop early. The reality is that nowadays many of the best prices appear before Black Friday itself in the UK, especially on popular items with limited stock.

What are this year’s early best deals for Black Friday?

If you’re unsure whether to buy now or hold off, keep in mind that as an authorised dealer we only ever advertise prices once they are confirmed by the supplier. 

In most cases, if a product is discounted today, it won’t drop further during the Black Friday sale.

Is it best to buy a Camera, Lens or Accessories for Black Friday?

If your budget won’t stretch to buying everything you want, it’s worth thinking a bit more carefully about where the biggest benefit will be for your own needs.

  1. Upgrade your camera if yours is holding you back. for example, is it slow to focus with outdated tech and you want to shoot faster moving subjects? Do you struggle in low light? Right now, there are amazing savings on Nikon cameras, DJI and more that bring modern performance within reach. Browse Black Friday camera deals here.
  2. Buy a new lens if your camera delivers but you’re missing out on creative options. A fast prime, all-in-one travel zoom, or telephoto zoom lens for wildlife could completely change how and what you shoot. Sigma, Tamron and Nikon are all starting early this year. Browse for Black Friday Lens Deals today.
  3. Snag some photo accessories if your kit works well but you want to get more out of it. A photo printer, faster card reader or an ND filter can solve frustrations and make everyday content creation smoother. Our Photography Accessories Guide includes plenty of ideas, and there’s a dedicated Student Guide to Camera Accessories if you’re just starting out.

Browse our huge library of equipment buying guides to find out more about specific niches and subjects that might interest you, such as the Best Compact Camera For Travel or more general guides like Mirrorless Camera Vs DSLR.

Think about where your gear holds you back or limits results. That’s usually where the smartest upgrade will be.

What are some hidden Black Friday gems?

Camera lens filters and Colour Calibration tools

Whether you shoot landscapes, portraits or video content, adding relevant camera accessories can open up creative options and raise your productions to the next level. ND filters help with long exposures and cinematic video, while polarisers improve colour and reduce reflections. We’ve also seen offers on colour calibration tools, which are ideal for ensuring accurate prints and consistency.

Camera Bags and Backpacks

There are dozens of camera bags on offer for Black Friday, so this is a great time to take stock of what you’re using to carry kit. A camera backpack or sling can completely change how you work in the field, especially for travel, street photography or day-long shoots.

This year’s deals include brands like Lowepro, Vanguard, Think Tank, Gomatic and McKinnon. From crossbody slings to large carry-on rollers, you can now get pro-level comfort and protection at significantly reduced prices.

  • Today you’ll save up to 25% off selected Tenba bags, 20% off selected PGYTech and 10% off Summit Creative Bags.

Gimbals and Video Accessories

Black Friday is a great time to consider a stabiliser and other video accessories. Gimbals from DJI and Zhiyun are frequently included, and if you’re starting to make short films, YouTube content or vlogs, you can save up to 35% off LED lights from Nanlite, including the Pavotube II 6C LED Light Tube.

Binoculars, Spotting Scopes and Telescopes

Optics are often missed in camera deals, but with 100s of offers from ZEISS, Nikon, and Hawke, this is the best time to enjoy savings. From stabilised binoculars for wildlife observation to beginner telescopes with smart astronomy features, there’s a surprising amount of crossover with photography interests.

Tripods and Supports

Tripods aren’t just for long exposures but help you get sharp, consistent results whether you shoot landscapes, macro, wildlife or video. Black Friday deals are now live with savings on carbon fibre tripods, travel tripods, monopods and kits, with options from all of the best brands. If you’re looking for a new set of legs, this is the time to act.

Do camera deals actually get better on Black Friday?

Yes. Black Friday consistently brings some of the year’s best prices for cameras, lenses and accessories. Cyber Monday can offer follow-up deals, but the widest range tends to go live for Black Friday.

Do Sony cameras go on sale for Black Friday?

They do and this year is no exception. We’ve already seen on the A7 III and kits, and selected G lenses. These often include cashback or free extras, so it’s worth checking the Sony Black Friday page for updated offers.

Is Black Friday the best time to buy a lens?

If you’re looking for new gear before the end of the year, it’s a great time to buy. Prices tend to be as low as you’ll see, with some lenses bundled with accessories or trade-in bonuses.

Which photo brands are offering the best deals in 2025?

So far we’ve seen fantastic offers from Nikon, Sony, Tamron, Sigma and ZEISS, with more brands expected to join in as the sale progresses.

Should I wait until Cyber Monday?

Cyber Monday sometimes extends existing deals, but rarely adds new ones. If there’s something specific you’ve been eyeing, it’s generally best to buy on Black Friday.

WHAT IS BLACK FRIDAY?

Black Friday originated in the USA, following Thanksgiving, and is now a major retail event in the UK. During the event camera brands offer substantial discounts on a wide range of products, from cameras to lenses and accessories.

WHEN IS BLACK FRIDAY IN 2025?

Black Friday in 2025 is on Friday, November 28th. It's a highly anticipated shopping day with deals starting earlier than ever as brands offer special prices to entice bargain hunters. Many regard this sale as the best time to buy a camera as savings can be significant.

HOW LONG DO BLACK FRIDAY SALES LAST?
