Ha ha ha. Very funny.
E-5 was released in 2010, where I can find a deal for $200??
P.S. G5 at Amazon.com with the kit 14-42 II is $399. Were such deals available in Germany, would have already picked up one.
P.P.S. BTW, Panny 45-150mm lens at Amazon is $163.39. Oly 40-150 can be found even cheaper. 45-200 not so much more expensive. Sweet. And some people complain that m43 lenses are overpriced…
Funny how many complain a particular m4/3 model is too expensive (or MSRP too high). Then when the street price is much lower, they complain again about it’s plunging value.
Similarly, they whined that m4/3 lenses are like cheap toys; then later complain that the high quality lenses are too expensive.
Haters always find something to complain about.
“Then when the street price is much lower, they complain again about it’s plunging value.”
I can’t physically complain about that. I live in Germany. Street price here is: a street price in US, replace the $ with € and add 100-200 on top.
I read numerous times that USA populace has rather weird (aka: very low) price expectations, while at the same time gauging the prestige of the product by the highness of the price. I can only presume that it is them doing the complaining: the rest of the world is simply envying the low prices they get very often.
Don’t complain.
All that equals up with expensive healthcare, education and food prices…
I am German and live in the USA…
> Don’t complain.
I don’t. I quietly envy. 🙂
My colleagues from Brasilia though… Their prices are even worse. Most of the stuff costs ~50% more. Every time they come on a business trip to Germany, they buy some stuff to bring back.
Something similar with France. As I have understood, gear costs more there too. When I lived in Saarbrücken, just opened Saturn in the downtown was overcrowded with French-speaking people literally every Saturday.
So in Germany… I simply envy quietly.
Hey women….hey women…why don’t you come over to my house tonight so I can show you a real man. A man that has big strong arms from carrying his D700.
I read through this you maybe have one big strong arm – thinking too hard about those women, women that won’t come over despite all your pleading, posturing blather
D700 has been discontinued.
Even lower than Amazon, DMC-G5KK is $350 at Newegg–$130 less than the body only.
