Amazon deals:

Sony a6000 body only for $398

Both also include a free memory card, case, two spare batteries, and a spare charger.

Both are the cheapest ever from Amazon. Also available from Adorama or B&H.


at amazon this now has a holiday bundle that includes a $50 GC for the same price...

Is the Canon G1-X comparable to the Sony a6000?

Good price, but Gray Market. ZERO warranty support from Nikon, even if you're willing to pay.

-1. I bought this from the same seller for under $1400 w/ 1 yr 3 party warranty in the summer.

For anyone shooting landscapes, milky way, or auroras, one of the best (and cheapest!) lenses went on sale for the first time in recent memory.

The Rokinon 14mm f/2.8 is tiny, lightweight, and wicked sharp. For shooting stars and auroras, it’s even sharper than Canon and Nikon’s own lenses (which cost $2k+). These are manual focus only (which you’d be doing anyway in these situations), and are the latest version with the focus-confirmation chip (meaning the camera will assist you with the focusing).

Adorama via Ebay linky

Canon version (works on both full frame and APS-C): $249.99
Sony E version (regular NEX/mirrorless): $249.99
Nikon version (works on both full frame and APS-C): $279.99

SF - I have the tokina 16-28 already on a FF. Is the extra 2mm worth $270 for a casual photographer?

SanDisk Extreme Plus 32GB SD Card, the Wirecutter's best pick, is $18 at Amazon.

Off of $35. Lowest amazon price ever.

Waterproof etc. etc.

If I decide to get the A6000, does it make sense to get the 55-210 lens as well for an extra $200 (total is $697 vs $498 without it) or that's not the next lens I'd wanna get for the camera?

Is there any difference between yours & the black one being offered with the A6000 ?
