The busiest shopping day of the year near and many retailers are running special promotions well ahead of Black Friday (the day after Thanksgiving). The Nikon D600 body-only now includes an extra $100 off at several retailers and this amount increases to $200 off when purchased with the 24-85mm VR kit lens.

To sweeten the deal, B&H Photo, Adorama and Amazon offer 2% rewards for purchasing the D600 which can be redeemed for a future purchase, while J&R offers 1% rewards on Nikon products. Some retailers go even further and include free items with the D600: B&H Photo includes a SanDisk Extreme Pro 16GB SDHD card, Lowepro Rezo camera bag and Pearstone battery pack — a $114 value. Adorama throws in a Transcend 32GB SDHC card and Lowepro Rezo camera bag but their bundle does not include the 2% reward.

All discounts, rebates and free items considered, the best deal for the D600 is at B&H Photo: D600 body for $1996.95 and the D600 + 24-85mm VR Lens for $2496.95 including free shipping. You can also get the D600 body + 28-300mm VR Lens for $2896.95 a $250 savings and plus a free camera bag and 32GB SD card.
