Meike Autofocus EF-EOS R Adapter, $54 via Amazon (Great Reviews!)

Posted September 3, 2020 at 5:55 pm EDT by CanonPriceWatch. 2 comments.

We’ve been on the hunt for an affordable but good-performing 3rd party EF-EOS R mount adapter, given the shortage at Canon. We think the Meike EF-EOS R Auto-Focus Adapter may fit the bill! Voking Digital via Amazon is selling it for only $53.99.

This is an auto-focus adapter that just showed up on the market, and the reviews (although a small sample) are great! This adapter has much better reviews and is rated higher than other adapters that are in a similar price range ($49, $55, $58, or $76).

At this price you could buy one of these adapters plus a Canon adapter (when back in-stock at $99), and still be less than the $170 asking price from resellers.

Skylum Doubles Down on AI with LuminarAI — Early Preorder from $59

Posted September 3, 2020 at 9:19 am EDT by CanonPriceWatch. 3 comments.

Skylum Software just announced LuminarAI, the next evolution of their image-editing software. This “first image editor fully powered by artificial intelligence” includes a set of tools for automatic portrait, landscape, and composition enhancement.

On their LuminarAI launch page, you can see some very compelling examples of the capability of their software, and they claim “you don’t perform manual selections, masking, layering and other tedious tasks of traditional photo editors”. The software will be released in the 2020 holiday season.

They have also announced special early-bird pricing for the first 30,000 preorders of LuminarAI:

$59 with a loyalty discount (if you own any previous version of Luminar or Aurora HDR)
$69 for new customers

The price goes up to $74 after the special early-bird pricing, so don’t miss out on this opportunity! As usual, a 30-day money back guarantee applies (from the product release date).

It’s surprising that some have resorted to buying the EOS R5 body-only for $4999 on eBay from grey market dealers. The Canon Direct Store kit for $4999 is obviously the better deal, it’s like getting a free lens at the same price!
