All this cleaning is a good sign, my A7000 is coming closer.
I have a rumor about this soon 😉
17:59, not 18:02
😉
They sold the A99 before for € 2.222 instead of € 2.498 (€ 2.400 currently).
A99 replacement soon fingers crossed!!
I like A-mount.
Sony, don’t abandon a-mount, please……..
Advantage of A-mount glass over E: can be “speedboosted” and mounted on other mirrorless mounts.
Im not motivated in buying E-mount full frame glass
Yeah – a mount you can adapt – e mount you are stuck with the e mount.
Fast/long lenses will have little advantage size wise with e mount so in terms of long term usability a mount may actually have an advantage despite being the mount most likely do be dropped sooner….
If i see correct there will be a77 for 879€??? why is that good?
all german shops allready sell A77 body for 849€ for last few weeks…

Or will ther be additional discount on 879€ price on amazon???
The deal starts at 18:00. Ther eis when you wills ee the real discounted price!
At 17:59 you can see the special price.
I’m german, but currently live in Switzerland.
Price for A77 Body here 720€, or 1020€ with 16-50mm. Significantely cheaper than in most other countries…
Actually, I saw today a used A77 Body with 1 year from the dealer for 560€ 😉 Everyone is clearing inventories now – what’s next A7000, or A79. I will stick to A-mount APS-C
Are the Swiss prices incl. taxes?
Just wondering…
Yes – price incl. tax
actually, only the A77 with 16-50 was on stock. Only Body and Body + 18-55 was sold out and they told me that they don’t get additional ones.
… euhmm … don’t see the point in clearing the stock of the excellent A77, when the updated version has been postponed (with the promise of a mayor software update ?? anyone ? anyone ? Bueller ? Bueller ?), and the replacement (mirrorless) will arrive only in 2014, and we don’t yet know what exactly we are gonna get …
Sure that would be alright for a box of chocolates, but we’re not talking candy here but a semi-pro camera …
So I would rather call this a promo action, to boost sales and interest.
I don’t know if Sony has manufactures some extra A77’s for the stock to last until 2014, but I’m already seeing the A77 going out of stock here and there …
Let us assume that Sony have better knowledge than us about their Product plans and their lifecycles. 🙂
And combine that with Alex’s words, shops state they will not be getting anymore of certain packages.
And … combine that with the fact that it might be a good idea to have something out on the streets before christmas.
If you wanted to keep the sales up, wouldn’t you spread the rumor that the replacement isn’t just around the corner?
799€ … but only for those who actually live in Germany I guess,
… switches back to 879€ on check-out for me …
…yes 799,- …same price as in the sony student store since weeks…
