the samys and bh links took me to a normal product page. didn’t see the deal anywhere?
$469 is a good price! Adding the $120 3-year protection plan, I could be using it worry-free for the next 3 years!
Protection plans are always a scam. In two years, if your EPL-5 dies, you’ll almost be glad it did, so you can buy something new.
Besides, at 120$ more for a 470$ product, for that to be a good deal, you would need a 25% probability of the camera failling during the 2nd or 3rd year of ownership. Then you would have to endure some weeks without a camera, if you apply for warranty once it dies.
Anyway, I think you get the point: protection plans are not my cup of tea.
Well, I don’t know. Ten years ago I bought a top of the line Compaq notebook for close to $3k and it died just a few days after one year. Might be that’s still affecting me today! And I figured and found that resale value will be higher too with extended warranty. Anyway, you could be right!
Had I waited three months to buy a GH3, they probably wouldn’t have these deals now. I’m so lucky.
Last week I bought a ref e-pl5 kit plus 4Gb SD for 449 thinking it was a steal deal… 🙁
This made me start to wonder whether it makes sense to spend $500+ for the 5-axis stabilization feature in EM5/EP5
Why don’t you read up on all of the E-M5 features. The $500 isn’t just about the 5-axis IS.
B&H had that combo + free mic/grip for sometime on and off. Other online stores are not offering that. Once choose the combo then click on Savings Available…
Was going to purchase the E-PL5 for that great price but was very disappointed to find it was for Canada only. :-/
$469.99 silver, and $479.99 for the black. Indeed, Canada only 🙁
