Nikon is taking the guesswork out of Black Friday. Nikon's holiday sale has dropped early with the lowest-ever prices on some cameras, lenses

Nikon's entry-level full-frame camera is no slouch – the Z5 II's balance between features and price makes it one of the best cameras you can get for the price. Price trackers indicate that the $1,596.95 sale price is the lowest the Z5 II body has been since its launch.

This is the lowest price that I've ever seen for Nikon's silver Zf. Granted, the silver version hasn't been around long as the original black, but it's still a nice $300 off Nikon's full-frame retro mirrorless. The options with the colored wraps are $1,996.95, but the one with a black wrap is $1,896.95.

The Nikon Z 40mm f/2 SE is a tiny prime lens designed to create a lighter mirrorless system. It's a tempting pick for Nikon photographers who want to create a more compact system without buying a compact camera. According to price trackers, this is the lowest price the lens has been yet in the US. It's a retro-inspired lens designed to match the Zf.

If price matters more than retro style, the Nikon Z 40mm f/2 slides in at just under $200 for a highly portable prime lens. This isn't the first time the lens has been this low, but it's back down to its lowest-ever price, according to Amazon price trackers.

Like the 40mm SE, the Nikon Z 28mm f/2.8 SE is a retro-styled lens designed to create a more portable camera system. This is a nice option for photographers who want a wide-angle setup that's highly portable.

The Nikon Z6 III's full-frame sensor and fast autofocus without breaching flagship-level prices make the mirrorless the best Nikon for most. The camera's versatile list of features typically costs $2,696, but Black Friday deals cut $600 off that price.

Nikon doesn't have a compact camera, but the mirrorless Z30 feels close. The Z30 is a compact mirrorless with a small kit lens with a feature set that's geared towards beginners and vloggers.

The Nikon Z8 is the crème de la crème of Nikons. It's not quite as pricey or bulky as the flagship Z9, but it still packs in an impressive 45.7MP full-frame sensor with bursts up to 120fps.

The Nikon Z MC 105mm f/2.8 VR S is Nikon's best Macro lens, but its pro-line optics typically come with a high price tag. A $250 price drop helps this lens slide under $900.

The Nikon Z 14-30mm f/4 S earned a five-star rating for its excellent image quality and compact design. It's an excellent option for ultra-wide, as long as you don't need an aperture brighter than f/4.

There are two types of travel lenses: tiny lenses for a lightweight setup and versatile zooms that replace multiple lenses in one. The Nikon Z 24-200mm f/4-5.6 falls in the latter category. The versatility earned the lens top honors as the best Nikon lens for travel.

Nikon has a newer II version of this lens, but it's nearly $2,800. The older Nikon 24-70mm f/2.8 S has now dropped to under $2K in the pre-holiday sales. That's an excellent price for a workhorse lens.

Pro-grade telephoto lenses are among the priciest options – and the Nikon 600mm f/6.3 VR S has an impressive $1,200 off. No, the price is still nothing to sneeze at, but it's the lowest price the lens has been at in six months, which is going to be highly tempting for some sports and wildlife photographers.
