As the day itself finally arrives, there are yet more bargains to be had with some big names joining the general discounting.
Let’s start with Atomos, which has slashed $400 off its most powerful and feature-rich monitor-recorder, the Shogun Ultra, and dropped it to $799 from its more usual $1199. That’s a big saving, and is one mirrored by its discount on the Ninja Phone. Now you too can transform your iPhone 15/16 Pro/Pro Max into a pro-grade streamer, recorder, and monitor for your DSLR camera for only $199. That’s 50% off.
Sticking at the top end of the alphabet, there are deals to be had on Apple kit too. How you choose to get them depends on you. The Apple Store itself tends not to deal in anything as vulgar as discounts, and offers you an Apple Gift Card up to $200 when you buy an eligible product. Shop around on third parties, however, and similar amounts can be saved directly off the price.
