The cheaper ones would work just fine. a5000, a5100... They are on sale for $300ish every now and then.

Lytro Light Field Camera for $60 on Amazon Gold Box.
 
This is a unique camera that allows you to focus (or change the focus) after the fact. It used to be $400 back when it first came out.
 
I’ve played around with these are they’re definitely quite cool. Not a replacement for your regular camera, but something unique. $60 is a pretty good deal though.

B&H has the Kata Lite-433 DL mirrorless camera bag on their daily sale today - $9.99 instead of the usual $34.99.
 
This is a perfect bag for anyone with an NEX or similar camera – it’ll hold everything, including accessories, while staying nice and compact. Kata bags are phenomenal and come with a lifetime warranty. At ten bucks you can’t go wrong.

Buy a GoPro Hero 4 Silver and get a $50 Amazon gift card.

This is the GoPro version most people will want, as it has the touchscreen The others don't have a screen at all).

If you specifically want the Black version (loses the screen but has better 4k), it's $399 on eBay via Adorama (that's $100 off).

Thank you SF for sharing your knowledge. How does the nex-5 stack up against the a5000 or a6000? Are there significant improvements?

They will be better in low light, focus faster, and come with the collapsible 16-50 power zoom instead of the manual 18-55.

There are many other differences, but these are the most significant.

The nex-5T does come with the 16-50 lens (looks like the same one as the a5000/a6000).

Sony mirrorless cameras on sale:

a6000 with 16-50mm lens for $598 on Amazon - this is the same price we saw during the big holiday sales last year.

a5000 and 16-50mm lens for $349. Not as good a deal as the holiday one, but the cheapest it's been in a very long time.
