Who says you have to wait until Black Friday to score killer deals on the best cameras ? We're only a month away from the day that introduces the year's biggest discounts of our favorite tech, but now is also a great time to pick up an instant or digital camera.

If you're after an easy-to-use compact camera with a flip-up screen for selfies, the Kodak PIXPRO C1 is down to $99 right now .
