Black Friday is a great time to pick up a new camera — here are best deals on DSLRs, action cams, drones, and more

Sony A7 III is on sale for $1,999.99 for Black Friday. Sony

Sony's deals are available from now until December 1.

Sony makes some of the best full-frame mirrorless cameras, including the terrific A7 III. You can get $200 off this model, either as a body-only option ($1,799) or bundled with a lens ($. With a 24.2-megapixel full-frame (35mm) sensor, the A7 III is one of Sony's most advanced and versatile cameras yet. It has a five-axis image stabilization system for rock-steady photos and videos, speedy performance, and advanced tech, like Sony's effective Eye AF. Like many Sony A7 cameras, the A7 III is a great 4K video camera too.

The A7 II is also getting a discount. After all rebates, you can get the A7 II for as low as $899.99. While it's a much older camera (circa 2015) and doesn't have the latest tech, the A7 II is still a highly lauded model that delivers great photos and 4K videos, and it has Sony's proven five-axis stabilization. If you've been looking to get into full-frame photography and 4K videography but you're on a budget, this is a solid option. For $100 more, you can get the A7 II with a 28-70mm zoom lens.

If you're after megapixels, Sony's 42-megapixel A7R II and A7R III full-frame cameras are also discounted. You can get the A7R II with a kit lens for less than $1,500.

Sony is also bringing the price of the compact A6000 down to $399.99 (body only). While this is a very good cropped-sensor (APS-C) camera, note that it's several years old. However, Sony is offering the A6000 as a two-lens bundle for $599, which is worth considering if you are buying a Sony camera for the first time and plan to upgrade the body later. Sony's A6500 is also discounted ($999.99, body only), which is a more advanced model with newer tech, but if you're spending this much, we think you should consider going full-frame with the A7 II and 28-70mm lens unless you desire a compact, travel-friendly camera.

The deals aren't just on older cameras. There are savings on the new A7R IV and A9 II ($100 off), but they aren't as significant or hard to find. Sony's Black Friday/Cyber Monday promotion covers its mirrorless cameras, point-and-shoot cameras (Cyber-shot), action cameras, camcorders (Handycam), and accessories. Sony cameras generally don't go on sale, and while the deals are mainly for older models, nearly all of Sony's cameras are very good products.

You can see the full list of discounts here. Products are available at Sony authorized retailers, such as B&H and Adorama, as well as Best Buy, although we noticed B&H and Adorama are including some great accessories on top of the discount (make sure you click on the correct links that take you to the bundles). You may also notice B&H and Adorama knocking an extra $1 off. Unless you live in the New York City area, Best Buy's nationwide stores offer easier returns and may even price match should you find a cheaper deal (although Best Buy won't price match Black Friday deals).
