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.

This camera's specialty is low light, not video. This (and the first version) are the only camera out there now that can capture real-time video of the northern lights, for example.

I shot an event with the first version recently and was blown away by the files I got.

I stand corrected, but still not for an average prosumer.

Thanks , must have missed that one. But also this post shows the body only for $398 with $50 gift card. So if someone already has a lens...

I don't see the GC with the body only

maple leafs · « **Reply #672 on:** December 20, 2016, 04:20:36 PM »

maple leafs · « **Reply #673 on:** December 20, 2016, 04:22:36 PM »

Amazon gift card seems more useful than Bh gift card

Nice. The lenses look good. Does Canon offer a return policy on their refurb lenses?

of these DSLR's, does any stand out as a particularly good fit for a beginner (first "real" camera), to use mostly for kids, vacations, etc?
been thinking about the a6000 for a while, but if any of these is a similar quality and ease of use, and can be gotten now, perhaps even with two lenses, for significantly cheaper, then I'd like to do that... any advice appreciated.
