And for the UK (drum roll) … diddlysquat. I’m sure the Sony store has just put up the prices of the a7ii. That errr…. works.
I’d like to have a €700 rebate on the A7II in Europe also 🙁
Does this mean they are trying to clear some inventory for new camera releases?
Absolutely and usually before announcements. But the really thing is the A7II 299 dollar off . That’s relatively new and not inline for a upgrade . Unless there is a real surprise coming in 24mpx
*Almost* tempted. If Sony had a slow FE telephoto for $400-500 I’d buy into this system. The 24-240 for a whopping $1000 is pretty ridiculous. That lens should cost half that.
As the system stands, you save on the body compared to DSLR full frame, but get fleeced on the glass compared to DSLR and MFT.
The FE glass is pretty good, but there is a bit too much of a price premium. The zooms are about 20% higher than they should be, and some primes are in line (the Sony 35/1.4 is actually priced fine…it’s $100 more than the Canon or Nikon equivalent, but by all reports so far, the better lens optically). Others are very high. ($1,000 for a 55/1.8 is outrageous, even given the very high optical quality). Hopefully some more reasonably priced alternatives start coming out.
I bought an A7 II at the reduced price because I do reviews and need a FF Sony body, but also I plan to use it as sort of a Digital Canon FD camera, as I have a full set of very good FD primes that work very well on this body.
