Sony 28-70mm FE already in Stock via Amazon and Cameta!

The 28-70mm FE lens can be purchased as separated non-kit lens at Amazon (Click here) and with extras via Cameta at Amazon US (Click here). This is good news for Sony A7r camera owners that don’t want to spend the money for the also soon to come Zeiss 24-70mm FE lens. The Zeiss will be released on February 2.

Note: The NEX-3n is the most sold mirrorless camera at Amazon (full ranking here). It beats all the new cameras like the FUji X-E2, Olympus E-m1 and Sony A7 series 🙂

Reminder: BHphoto (Click here) added a free $100 BH gift card to the already great NEX-7 with double lens kit deal! You get case and SD card too.

    Oh wow! A cheap camera sells more often than more expensive ones! Wow!

    …

    1. I’m sure they recognize it, but given Sony’s predictable track record, they’re likely to never publicly admit anything. And when it comes up, they’ll say “Oh, yes, that’s a FEATURE of the camera. It is operating as it was designed to operate.”

      They’ll NEVER ‘fix’ anything.

    1. If you look at all camera sales the picture is much different. The top of the list is dominated by cheap P&S, the top mirrorless does not appear until number 70. The list is dominated by low cost offerings, from that we can imply that those who are price sensitive do not buy mirrorless cameras. Those that do recognize value for money as the top sellers are already quite pricy.

  2. I think that people do relate to value for money and that this translates into sales. The price segment will help as clearly Leica may sell less M9, M240 than Sony will sell NEX-3n but that does not mean that the cheaper offer is crap, it is simply more attractive to the masses which is great news !

    1. +1 i would have thought some reviewers would have already gotten their mitts on it to review. I’m also wondering why you can’t pre-order the lens in the UK when on all other of Sony Europe webisties you can? Can’t bloody wait to get my hands of the a7 and the 24-70.

    1. I see a comment of mine didn’t pass moderation: I mentioned a Dutch shop where I just ordered a Nex-7 with 16-50 euro for 699 euro. Obviously I can’t link to it, its name contains express.

  3. The 28-70 fe has been available seperately since A7(r) launch in the UK. I’m pretty sure it hasn’t sold well.

    Its a kit lens of kit quality. I was totally un-impressed.

    1. Or that means that people go for a cheaper camera and that whatever Sony calls the NEX line, consumers will go for the cheapest.

  4. Sincerely regret owners of NEX-3N. It’s a piece of junk. But cheap. With professional compact camera running into limits much later than 3N – is expandable for external flash, has a greater focal range (not paying for additional lenses), is similarly small, some have a viewfinder (other optional).

    1. Not everyone gives a flying monkey about advanced features or build quality. I’d say the NEX-3N is targeted at the right people and that’s why it’s doing so well.
