arbozarth Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 I've been watching a6000 prices. For a 2 lens bundle (16-50 and 55-210) it has gone from $1050 to $950 to $850. Today: $750. I'm new to Sony cameras. Is this most likely in anticipation of the new a6100? Will it go any lower? Time to pull the trigger? -randy in ventura Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bryangoff Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 $750 is a good price. You won't be disappointed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Fazz Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Yes, If you follow Sonny rumours, I think the new A6100 will be coming next month. The fact that the A6000 is dropping in price, I would say confirms that. I'm waiting for the new A6100 as well. Mind you, the new A6100 will obviously, be more expensive.

Golem Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 I'm happy with my A6000 with kit zoom. For $344 [open box special] how can I even think of complaining. It's not that I chose the A6000 and hunted the best price. My method is that the best gear for the price is whatever gear is sold at the best price. So, my A6000 actually chose me ! -------------------------------------------------- Theoretically, I could read reviews and determine which gear is best, but then I hafta shop price on a particular model which is more work, and in the end no one cares which model was deployed to get the shots. Acoarst this is not how one assures to acquire the ultimate gear but I reeeally hate shopping, so I end up with second rate gear and my neighbors wanna run me outa the neighborhood. ` Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ethierbach Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Today: $750. That's the price I paid last December, a pretty good pre-Christmas sale. No regrets at all; my a6000 suits me well. If the a6100 rumor mill is at all in the ballpark, I'd personally opt for the great price on the a6000, then wait to see what the a7000 has, if it ever shows up. -Ed- Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time to pull the trigger? -randy in ventura It's probably gonna get lower next month or when the a6100 is released. But by then you might want to buy the new one , if ever there's a significant improvement "image quality wise" or a new sensor. So my suggestion wait for a few more weeks or by next month when you know the specs before you buy the a6000. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

foto-fanatic Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Haha^ have faith son^^^! I had a nex 6 and that was a bit of alright for the dollars, i hear the a6000 is quite a bit better. Get yourself an adapter and some cheap manual primes too if it behooves you. The minoltas and nikkors are good to great. I have acquired some from second hand shops dirt cheap. Good luck and good photography. Alberto Flores 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
