Prime Day is back again, and this year, Amazon is running its first-ever four-day Prime event, meaning more deals and more savings to be had.

While Prime Day doesn't technically start until tomorrow, we've scoured the internet for the best early camera deals to bring them to you right here. We've also thoroughly inspected each deal to ensure it's the best price on the market and that there hasn't been any sneaky price-hiking going on to make deals look better than they actually are.

But cameras aren't the only thing you can save money on this Prime Day. We've compiled all the best deals on air purifiers, electric toothbrushes, health and fitness equipment, telescopes, binoculars, star projectors and more over in our Amazon Prime Day hub.
