This Week’s Top 10 Deals for Filmmakers – Drones, Zoom Recorders, Fujifilm & Canon Cameras, iMac Pro and more

There are lots of interesting deals for filmmakers available this week. We selected the best 10 offers of filmmaking gear from our partners’ online shops for this week. Including Fujifilm and Canon cameras, Zoom audio recorders, drones, slider, cage for GH5, Apple Macbooks, iMac Pro and more.

I went through the current deals on our partners’ websites and selected the top 10 offers currently available, which I think could be interesting for you. Unfortunately we didn’t find great deals for filmmakers in Europe this week, but we will update this post if that changes! By shopping at our affiliate partners’ stores you are supporting cinema5D through our buy links, as we get a small affiliate commission when a purchase is completed.

Now, let’s take a look at this week’s top 10 deals for filmmakers:

B&H: DJI Mavic Pro (Fly More Combo) – $300 Discount

I am starting this week’s deals with a very interesting one. DJI’s very popular compact drone Mavic Pro still has some advantages over the newer Mavic Air and B&H now has a good deal on the “Fly more combo”. You can take a look at our review of the Mavic Pro. Its gimbal-stabilized camera can record videos at up to Cinema 4K 24fps with a bitrate of 60Mbps or take stills at 12MP. It has up to 4.3 mile control range and 27 minutes flight time. In the “Fly More Combo” you will get the drone with a remote controller, three batteries, five spare propellers, shoulder bag and more accessories.
