A6000


Hmmm? Tk posted on its fb page that it has stopped taking a6k pre orders..

Any idea why? Just curious.

Every shop only allocate a certain number. Maybe TK stocks all have been taken up, hence no more pre order.
 

is it worth it to upgrade from a nex 3nl :\

feeling poisoned

Different PO deals for our neighbors..

Body only ~S$930................................SG S$849
Body + kit 1650PZ ~S$1045.......................SG S$1099

Body + SEL1670Z ~ $2089.........................SG S$849 + S$1199 = S$2048

Generally more expensive than Singapore except for the kit 1650pz combi.

memory card and tripod?!? I'll pass.... who actually uses these free tripods they give anyway?

I wonder how many of our Malaysian counterparts actually come to SG or ask their friends/relatives here to place pre-order for them....;)

Wow, interesting price.
 

it's either this or an A7 at the end of the year :/

Very different animal A7 vs A6000.....

it's like asking if you should go FF from APSC.

Know your needs and wants. No one can tell you what you need or want.

I know I am getting A6000 for the following reasons:
- upgrade from my aging 5N
- class leading AF to capture my active, growing boy
- EVF for better pic composure
- I can recycle all my SEL APSC lenses
- I enjoy the portability offered by tge extra 1.5 crop factor in the focal length for APSC compared to the FF lenses... for equivalent focal length, the APSC SEL lenses are smaller and lighter
- A7 is best used with tripods and ?stills? which do not suit my needs.

Above are all my personal opinions. your mileage may differ.
 

The free SD looks like a 94MB/45MB 16GB. Not bad and not those normal 16GB class 10 type. But still, i will throw one side. lol.
 

hmmm just thought of the question, for A7/A7R pre-orders, what did Sony eventually give for the mystery "Exclusive Alpha Premiums"?
 

Shirt?
Cap?
Mug?
Umbrella?
mini tripod?
Tripod?
Another casing?

All seems useless to me. lol

The a6k's strength is the AF performance and it is indeed very outstanding.

The a7's strength is the FF sensor and IQ you will get with a FF sensor.. THe AF performance is no where near the a6k

So it's 2 totally different market..For owners of the A7..they will likely buy this as a backup camera (i am)...
 

hahaha, I stand corrected! Thanks!

The one you stated do not just come at 64GB. It goes from 8GB till 64GB. How you stand corrected i don't know.
 

The price is quite tempting..................................:)
