In case you missed yesterdays post. Our US readers can enjoy a super deal on NEX cameras. Full Overview at Amazon (Click here). I also fixed the BH links that didn’t work yesterday. Here are the details:
– $ 80 on the NEX-7 body at Amazon (Click here) and BHphoto (Click here).
– $ 80 on the NEX-7 with kit lens at Amazon (Click here) and BHphoto (Click here).
– $ 200 on the NEX-5n body at Amazon (Click here) and BHphoto (Click here).
– $ 200 on the NEX-5n with kit lens at Amazon (Click here) and BHphoto (Click here).

Meantime the new Canon/Nikon entry level are selling well while the best Sony camera is the RX100 (Here is the full ranking).

200 off nex-5n, that’s insane. They are probably getting rid of the rest of the stock to bring in the new pancake lenses with the kit.
thats insane discount for the still capable 5n!
What would be better, the 5N or the RX100 if I only plan to use the kit lens with the 5N? Looking for something to complement my DSLR.
LC, I’ll vote for RX100. It’s small and light and has great quality. If you just need a complement, not replacement, of your DSLR I think a DC is better than 5N.
I second what eric says. I shoot film but my always with me camera is the rx100. I had been trying for a couple years now to get something good that was pocketable and the rx100 is finally that camera. I feel even more confident in the rx100 purchase with the olympus xz-2 being $600.
what is a DC?
I’d go for the 5N. Much more versatile camera with growth potential. And at the new price it is much cheaper.
Help! I’m really torn between the F3 and 5R. I’m leaning more towards the 5R though because of the wifi capabilities. However this sale on the F3 is making me give it another look though. What would you recommend to someone who wants to step up from point and shoot cameras and wants to get into photography?? (I know the 5n is great but I’m interested in the new flip up LCD screens and the superior auto mode) thanks 🙂
On Amazon.fr, there is also good deal. 5N with 18-55 for 538euro, Nex 7 with 18-55 for 1130euro. There is stock to purge. Nex F3 with 18-55 is 518euro. Now Sony needs to slow down, and concentrate on lenses instead of throwing new nex every 6 month
The LA-EA2 adapter and the FDA-EV1s viewfinder must come down too! still too expensive.
Even better deals in Australia
$1099 for NEX7 with kt lens

This has nothing to do with the post.
But… why only two posts per page? SAR isn’t exactly so heavy on one’s internet connection that the site has to have only a couple of posts per page.
It makes more bothersome to find (not so) older posts.
What would you recommend for a novice wanting to move up from point and shoot cameras and wants to get into photography? I’m torn between the F3 and the 5R. I especially like the flip up screen on these models so that’s why I’m not looking at the 5N. I’m leaning more towards the 5R because of the wifi capabilities but the sale on the F3 is making my wallet want to consider it lol. (sorry if my other comment shows up, I don’t see it though…)
You can pick 5R for ergonomics. But if you can get more lenses by saving money, go for lenses! (don’t buy the kit)
Also of note is that the LA EA2 adapter has been reduced in price from $399 to $269.
