Thanks! I see.

I'd still appreciate if someone of the camera-knowers would explain P&S vs. the a6000.
It's half of the size

Which? Cuz I know that the a6000 is smaller and lighter than some (or maybe all) of the canon G series.

I think the Panasonic LUMIX ZS50 is a good choice. Someone told me that on the Cyber Monday ad Costco has it for $250 http://www.costco.com/Panasonic-LUMIX-ZS50-Travel-Camera-Bundle.product.100284404.html

Upcoming Sony Black Friday deals:

a6000 with 16-50 and 55-210 lenses: $700
a6000 with 16-50 lens: $550
a5000 with 16-50: $350
RX100 (first version): $400
E-mount lenses: "up to $200 off", whatever that means.
Some other mediocre savings on the a7II and some camcorders and flashes.

Overall pretty weak sale I'd say... This is the official Sony store sale, but it stands to reason that it will be copied by everyone else pretty closely. Some retailers (Amazon, B&H, Adorama) may possibly throw in some little extras. Prices will be in effect 11/20 - 12/3.


I just saw on Amazon they started a Promotion of 15% cashback using the Amazon Store Card The A6000 is part of the promotion...


Earn 15% back ($82.20) on this item with the Amazon Prime Store Card


Sony bonus offer:
Through December 10, get 15% back on select Sony electronics shipped from and sold by Amazon.com when you pay in full with the Amazon Prime Store Card. That's a 10% bonus in addition to the everyday 5% back you can earn on Amazon.com purchases. This Sony bonus offer excludes Sony PlayStation, video games, and digital content.

The 15% back will be applied as a statement credit. See full terms and conditions below.

To take advantage of this limited-time offer:

Click "Apply now" and fill out an application for the Amazon.com Store Card. If approved, you will be automatically upgraded to the Amazon Prime Store Card.
Add eligible Sony items to your Cart
At checkout, select your Amazon.com Store Card as the payment method
Select "Earn 5% back, and a 10% bonus on select Sony items as statement credit" as your promotional benefit
Shop eligible Sony items.

GoPro Remote 1.0 and Wrist Housing Bundle is on sale today only for a whopping $19, instead of the usual $99. The remote works with the Hero 3, 3+, and 4 (all versions).

No-brainer deal if you have a GoPro, IMO.

Great price for a great camera, Amazon doesn't seem to be matching the gift card. Effectively $2,498.

Can probably sell easily for 90% so say $2,548 effective price, which is still great.

Keep in mind this is a specialty camera for videos, so even if you're willing to spend $2,500, unless you are shooting videos this probably isn't for you.

It's a full-frame so it should be amazing for pictures as well.

Lower resolution may not make it the best for people that like to crop or print
