I seem to perceive that you are Italian…
Many cashback from Sony.it and retailers on all Nex, SLT, some flash and some accessories.

Glad to see that the errors in the original LL NEX-7 M-mount lens tests have been acknowledged. I recall several of us who pointed out the obvious errors in the original conclusion came under some attack.

A good start, but it seems that a more thorough test of symmetrical (pseudo-guassian) lenses is in order (and planned if the note at the end is an indicator). If the issues can be easily fixed in PP (as might be the case) then this might turn out not to be such a significant issue. What would be nice is for RAW converters to be able to perform the relevant corrections.

In the UK the 70-200mm is available from warehouseexpress.com (reputable company) for a hundred quid cheaper and they are also doing the Sony cashback deal.

Here’s the PDF showing the cameras and lenses:

I gave Andreas the link to xp-tron.de and the coupon code.

notebooksbilliger.de is also a good option, but I couldn’t find a coupon code for their store to lower the price further.
