ethierbach 6 Report post Posted May 4, 2015 Same at the Sony store, B&H and Adorama. If I had to guess, I'd say that they're going to have a new lens to go along with the A6100. But that's only a wild guess. I did see this thread in the APS-C lens section a while back: http://www.sonyalphaforum.com/topic/11-possible-three-new-aps-c-e-mount-lenses-to-come-in-2015/ I do look forward to more APS-C lenses, from Sony and third parties. Now to decide whether to grab the sel50f18 now, or see what comes along. Nice problem to have. -Ed- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

seandonnelly1 1 Report post Posted May 5, 2015 Those linked items above are mostly Best Buy Marketplace items. Those are sold through Best Buy by 3rd party retailers. But it does appear to be listed here Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ethierbach 6 Report post Posted May 5, 2015 It's NOT discontinued: Good catch. I misread the thread title as "discounted", and it is indeed discounted. And it is indeed on its way to my door, courtesy of B&H. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
delta_snowman 2 Report post Posted May 6, 2015 No... You read it right. Every Best Buy is selling the stock they have of SEL50f18 (sku 5638022) and will not get more. I searched 5 stores in an area I travel for business until I found one today. You can call and ask about that sku. They'll tell you it's being deleted from their system.
