New Sony US deals launched: Up to $1,000 instant rebates and up to $500 trade-in bonus!

Share

Sony US launched new big camera and lens savings (Click here to see the full list at BH). For unknown reasons the A7III price drop advertised by US stores did not run. I guess there was some mis communication between Sony and the US stores. This was just one of the screenshots I got from US stores showing the A7III discount

 

Sony savings:

Canon will launch a new $1600 FF mirrorless on Feb 14. And Sony answers with a $200 price drop on the Sony A7III

Share

On February 14 Canon will launch a new $1599 entry level Canon EOS-RP Full Frame mirrorless. Sony seems to have learned about that and tomorrow they will launch the first ever discount on the Sony A7III. The camera will get a $200 price drop as you can see from the BHphoto image shared on top.

One more thing: The Panasonic S1-S1R is creating some disappointment on the web. And I agree with this funny guy when he says that all we need is a Sony A7III with a flippy screen :)
