Well, if you want it here it is. 500 bucks off, no taxes. I get the feeling it’ll be 2500.00 sooner than later.
I agree, $2500 is the realistic price for the camera after the initial preorder sales die down.
I’ll get it at that price 🙂
Yep, the initial rush is over. I’ll hang on until it dips under 2500. Maybe i’ll even hang on for A7rIII, so that his one will drop below 2k.
One thing I don’t get is why does A99 still cost 2k?
The cost for the A99 is laughable at this point. The only thing it has going for it is that it’s the only FF SLT Sony makes. The A77II is only .5 stops behind it in ISO and has better everything.
I still want it:)- I just figure by next year the price should seriously drop on the used market- so why bother.
The must not want to unload remaining inventory too badly. Honestly, if I were buying new into the Sony system now, coming from another brand, what draw would the A99 have over even the A7II? A bigger battery, and if you like beefier bodies, better ergo; that’s about it. Don’t get me wrong, I love my A99 (just shot a wedding with it yesterday), but it’s not a $2k camera anymore.
They must be trying to kill A-Mount in every way possible, but it just isn’t giving up so easily. No incentives on the outdated tech, is just one of the multitude of ways. That being said, slowly but surely Sony is getting to the point, where they can blame A-Mount for poor sales, and finally kill it off. As much as I hate the approach, I just don’t see what other benefit this could possibly provide.
The only other possible, but very improbable explanation is that there are a ton of people who still buy it at full price.
2k would be a price more people would buy. Probably Sony will hav a sales problem with the expensive latest products. Many customers might be frustrated by the price development. Now that there are better products available, nobody wants Mark I cameras anymore and just buy nothing at the moment.
Oh ouch!
Has anyone ever been able to excercise one of these dealer warranties?
Given that people complain about Sony’s execution of their own warranty (through a third party), I am just going to **guess** that it wouldn’t be thrilling.
Will wait till Thanksgiving to pick it up at ~$2k.
If only. I’d jump at that price.
keep dreaming
It begins!
What means “gray imported” ?
Means no manufacturer US warranty.
Or just learn to shoot the camera you already have for a few more months and then once you can shoot your way out of a wet paper bag, then buy the new camera at a discount.
Do sent ship to Canada boo…. oh well henrys/vistek it is.
…or you can do what I did and do some snooping around reputable retailers in the US and pick one up for $2,800 with no tax, free ship, and full warranty, which my CC automatically extends by an additional 12 months after original one expires. Not a bragging, just FYI that deals can be found.
Thanks Admin. I know it would fall further but $500 off to take it right now is good enough for me just before the fall season and holidays.
Buy it. Its worth it if you own the a7(II) or the a7s and looking to upgrade. I promise you, I’ve owned every a7 camera to date and I’m finally happy…. For now
In Vietnam, it’s around $2,680 with gifts and full warranty.
However, $2000 sounds more reasonable, I will wait.
It’s the same price as when I bought my A7Rii from the Sony Store in the Singapore airport, pretty cool to be able to get the deal online and stateside though
