When it comes to Black Friday, Amazon is taking center stage. The retail giant just announced its official Black Friday sale will begin on November 21 and run through December 2. From Dyson and Levi's to Hot Wheels and Ninja, you can expect tons of massive markdowns on your favorite name brands.

A good strategy is to track price history for the specific camera you want. Using price-tracking tools or reviewing past sales patterns can help ensure the deals are genuine. Additionally, some of the best offers may appear as flash or limited-time deals on Black Friday, providing significant savings if you're quick to buy.

During Amazon’s Black Friday Week, which starts on Thursday, Nov. 21, and runs through Friday, Nov. 29, deals include up to 55% on select Amazon devices including Amazon Fire Smart TVs. There's also up to 50% on denim for the family from Levi’s and apparel from OROLAY.
