Nikon Z 6II

Photography: Nikon

The 24-megapixel full-frame Nikon Z6 II has excellent dynamic range, and the phase-detection autofocus system is one of the best we’ve used. Video quality is also excellent, with 10-bit 4:2:2 N-Log output possible via HDMI. This offer may be a permanent sale, but either way, it’s a great price for a great camera.

If you can’t decide where to start with Moment’s smartphone lenses, this kit is an easy way to get a complete package without breaking the bank. You can choose any two lenses from Moment’s many offerings, and you also get some nice extras, like the case, lens caps, a lens pen, and more. If you ever switch to another iPhone, all you need is a new Moment iPhone case and a recessed lens mount.

If you feel the need for more photo-editing tools, this is a good deal on Adobe’s Photoshop editor (Illustrator and Premiere Pro are also on sale for the same price). This offer will only apply for the first three months, after which the price will go back up to $21 per month. If your photo editing needs are light, check out GIMPwhich can do almost everything Photoshop can do and it’s free.

gopro hero 10

Photography: GoPro

The hero10 black (8/10, WIRED recommends) isn’t the latest GoPro, but it’s still a great camera. You get more resolution from the 23.6-megapixel sensor and add much-improved image stabilization compared to its predecessor. The main place that new hero11 outperforms this camera with the newer, squarer processor; image stabilization; and higher resolution still images from video. Still, the quality of results you get from the Hero10 is probably enough. It’s cheaper if you buy directly from GoPro. Just remember to set a reminder to cancel the included 1-year GoPro subscription.

This fanny pack works as a shoulder bag or fanny pack, and is comfortable however you wear it. The 2-liter capacity is designed to hold a compact point-and-shoot camera, phone, or compact mirrorless camera. It’s made from 500-denier recycled nylon and 210-denier ripstop, making it tough enough for everyday use.

Home Offers

storage bags

Stasher bags are a WIRED favorite because they easily replace wasteful ziplock bags. Simply wash and reuse them for continuous storage of just about anything. At this time, all bags on the website are for sale. We suggest starting with a couple of gallon and quart bags.

use code planet15 to see the discount at checkout when you spend $30. These quick-drying, biodegradable alternatives to paper towels are made from cellulose and cotton. Unlike typical washcloths, these won’t smell bad or get moldy. You can wash them up to 200 times in your washing machine or on the top rack of your dishwasher. In our tests, they started to break down after a couple of months of use, but they lasted longer than similar products we tested.

use code PLANET at checkout to see the discount. Avocado Green Mattress makes some of our favorite organic mattresses, toppers and bedding. Everything on the site is 10 percent off for the next week, including bed frames and pillows.

bee wrap

You will automatically see the discount at checkout if your order total is over $35. Plastic wrap is annoying. Why does it always stick to itself and not to what you need it to stick to? Instead, use these beeswax wraps from Bees Wraps. These are organic cotton with sustainably sourced beeswax (along with jojoba oil and tree resin). The beeswax makes them waterproof. Just be sure to use cold water when rinsing them between uses; hot water could melt the wax.

use code yaasa50 to see the discount at checkout. Our favorite weighted blanket it has one of the lowest prices ever, although it is currently only available in the 15-pound size. It has an open knit design that feels heavy and refreshing, plus it’s just plain pretty. You can only dry clean it.

Outdoor Offers

Nikon Monarch M5

Photography: B&H

Nikon’s Monarch M5 binoculars are our the best choice for most people. These offer great bang for your buck, especially on sale. The 8 X 42 magnification is the most versatile, although if you prefer the larger 10 X 42 those are also on sale for $254 ($25 off).

our favorite fitness tracker The Fitbit 5 is for sale (8/10, WIRED recommends) hits the sweet spot between attractiveness, affordability, accessibility, and ease of use. It’s perfect for everyone who isn’t an ultra-marathoner or semi-pro powerlifter. Remember that Fitbit is now owned by Google, which might give you pause, but the hardware is one of the best deals you’ll find.

Icebreaker’s Merino Tops are warm, yet somehow cool, and surprisingly good at stopping the wind. These shirts are not good for moisture; for that, we suggest a Merino blend. And yes, it’s a lot of money for a t-shirt, but trust us, it’s worth it. see our complete guide to merino wool for more options.

Smartwool Merino long-sleeved undershirt

Photography: Journey

This one is only available in one color and one size (medium), but if it fits you well, this is a great deal on one of our favorite Merino wool base layers. The blend of 87 percent merino wool with nylon means it’s incredibly soft and comfortable.

REI is having a sale on all things cycling. from a Crankbrothers Multitool to Nutcase MIPS Helmets, there is something here for everyone. There are also many real bikes. we like him Women’s Cannondale Quick for $1,145 ($480 off) and the electric bikesthey are good starter bikes.
