If you want to know what Sony camera deal is going on check out Amazon. They are displaying all current Sony deals on their Mothers’day gifts page (Click here).
A couple of SAR readers sent me an email to confirm their A6000 preorder shipped at Amazon. Enjoy the unboxing time! 🙂 In the meantime the camera is in Stock via third-party resellers at Amazon US (Click here).
And the (very useful) eBay dela of the day is the portable [shoplink 26030 ebay]1 Terabyte WD hard disk (Click here)[/shoplink].

Product page now shows “usually ships in 3-5 weeks.” Glad SAR & DPR helped me see the writing on the wall so I could get in an early preorder! New toy tomorrow…
I forget the actual date I preordered from Amazon, but I received my A6000 in the US on Easter Sunday, via USPS. Not sure how that happened but I won’t complain.
Wow, that’s crazy… makes zero sense in multiple different ways. Apparently the universe wanted you to have your A6000 ahead of everyone else! I got my “ship notification” on Easter Sunday, but as I would have guessed, my 1-day shipping upgrade gets it to me on Tuesday, not Monday.
Good thing these deals are happening. We all know how many Mom’s out their have been itching for an A99.
Wow .. It’s so quiet in here ! Maybe because nobody is talking about a77II .. Ok here we go.
A77II
And of course they left the A6000 off the bundle deal while including the relatively new A5000. Since will be a new entry to Sony with no prior lens, makes sense to bundle when the 55-210 is artificially priced at $350 to reduce on “sale with body purchase” matching the $250 regular price of competition. That is the primary reason I didn’t pre-order, plus have a month before wife’s birthday to delay.
Can someone tell me if the “Zoom” view on their A6000 is now a two step process vs NEX 6/7? On N6 and N7 when I hit zoom it brought me to my designated af zone zoomed in at 5X… now, when I hit the zoom button, it shows the AF area first, and then forces me to hit the zoom button again to actually get zoomed in.
This is a deal breaker for me unfortunately and have to return the camera if that is the case, as it ruins my workflow and creates too many problems switching between cameras (I use primarily MF lenses for work).
Thanks in advance for any help.
