To mark 20 years since it opened its (virtual) doors, Amazon is planning a 'Prime Day' next week, on July 15th. Billed as a 'global shopping event', Prime Day will feature more deals for Prime members than Black Friday. We can exclusively reveal that among them will be more than 60 deals from top camera brands. Beyond that, we know little more than you, and we'll be checking the site at midnight just like everyone else. We really need some new memory cards...
As well as the Prime Day event itself, Amazon is also hosting a global photography competition for Prime members. The #PrimeLiving Photo Contest is open to photographers from Austria, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Spain, the United Kingdom and the United States, and the top prize is $10,000 (or equivalent local currency) in Amazon gift cards to one lucky winner in each of these countries. The contest closes at 11:59pm on July 15th (Pacific time).
As always, if you're interested in entering the contest, we strongly recommend taking a good look at the terms and conditions before doing so.
FULL DISCLOSURE: dpreview.com is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Amazon but both dpreview.com and our sister site connect.dpreview.com are editorially independent of our parent company.

Many cameras today include built-in image stabilization systems, but when it comes to video that's still no substitute for a proper camera stabilization rig. The Ronin-S aims to solve that problem for DSLR and mirrorless camera users, and we think DJI has delivered on that promise.
The SiOnyx Aurora is a compact camera designed to shoot stills and video in color under low light conditions, so we put it to the test under the northern lights and against a Nikon D5. It may not be a replacement for a DSLR, but it can complement one well for some uses.
At its core, the Scanza is an easy-to-use multi-format film scanner. It offers a quick and easy way to scan your film negatives and slides into JPEGs, but costs a lot more than similar products without a Kodak label.
