QANTASSTAFF

My first deal post so let me know if I've done anything wrong.

I think this may be a pricing error as the body and 28-70 kit lens is the same price.

The a7iii body went as low as $2000 from memory and the 24-105 went as low as 1500. So if my math is right this particular kit is the cheapest by approx $730.

The cash portion of the purchase also earns you 5541 PTS.

I'm not sure if the Qantasstaff code works (from the Sony WH-1000XM3 post), but if it does it could savd you another 10%.

      Sigma MC-11 adapter is good for Sigma lenses for Canon. Metabones is good for Canon glass.

    • freakatronic on 11/08/2019 - 20:52

      Back when I was considering the same thing, I looked around and found some EF:e-mount adaptors. I moved from a canon 5d MK2 to the original a7 so this is a good while back. There might be newer and better options available today. Metabones was a favourite back then but people complained that AF didn't work well, or it was very slow. I gave up on the idea of Canon's awesome library of affordable lenses and just bought a 35mm f2.8 for it.

  • Tech5 on 11/08/2019 - 13:30

      I have been struggling with the OB addiction for years, so now I have a number of unused/unopened items displayed in the living room as a reminder that I don't need to buy stuff just because they're on sale. It's working so far.

        I have had multiple instances of friends and family asking me to keep an eye out for a good price of insert item here and I literally pull one off my shelf for them.

        I know that feeling.

    • [Deactivated] on 11/08/2019 - 17:46

      Same. I thought I would do a thorough Youtube research on the camera's pro's and cons, so when I finish the camera is ozbargained and gone….
      Nope, still in my shopping cart : )

  • EVA-01 on 11/08/2019 - 13:41

    At this price, very Tempted to sell my 6D+lens and switch camp

    • OoLLaWa on 11/08/2019 - 17:06

      I just did this. Sold 6D and the kit lens (24-105mm) that came with it. Still have a sigma 35mm f1.4 to sell

      To me packing a FF DSLR on oversea trips just don't make sense anymore. Yes, I know mirrorless isn't all about weight and size but it is still significantly smaller/lighter than the older DLSRs.

      Just don't know if I should pull the trigger on this or wait for a A7IV?

      • EVA-01 on 11/08/2019 - 18:37

        A7IV's price won't be anywhere close to this. If this goes through I'm gonna sell all my canon gears (6d, 50 1.4, sigma cheapie 70-300, 24-70 2.8 L, Tamron 70-200 2.8, 40 2.8 pancake and M10 single lens kit) with spare change to spend towards a prime or tele. Tired of waiting for Canon to get their shit together to catch up on the tech and innovation of the competitors (namely Sony).

      I believe this is the result from trade war between Japan and South Korea. Since now they are overstocked, they need to be dumped without affecting main markets (US and EU). Hence cheaper Sony products in Australia via unconventional outlets.

      • T-man on 11/08/2019 - 18:38

        Why are they be dumped within affecting US and EU markets? I don’t understand. Also, South Korea is very small market, they are the exporting country and doesn’t import much Japan goods.

    Would love to own this Sony camera system, but I'm not doing enough photography to warrant investing in this new system. My current Olympus OMD-EM5 Mark 1 setup is still going very well for me.

    • cyrax83 on 11/08/2019 - 14:08

      If the deal goes through and you wanna buy some Olympus lenses hit me up :P

      • edfoo on 11/08/2019 - 14:15

        I only have 3 Olympus lenses - 12-50mm f/3.5-6.3 weather-resistent lens, 40-150mm f/4.0-5.6 telephoto lens, and 45mm f/1.8 prime lens. This system is getting old, so not sure about investing more in new lenses.

        • wittyusername on 11/08/2019 - 18:26

          It's hard right! I'm pretty deep in the Olympus system, I have the old EM1 from 5 years ago and a couple of pro lenses. It works really well but I'm so tempted by the full frame! What to do!

          • Buy2Much on 11/08/2019 - 18:48

            @wittyusername: Just do it. You don't want to die wondering. Worst thing is you don't like it enough and sell it one month down the track. At this price you should get most if not all your money back. I went from Olympus OMD-EM5 MFT to Canon FF and love the ability to take low light photos without flash. I might get back to MFT later if I need portability.

              @Buy2Much: "I went from MFT to Canon FF and love the ability to take low light photos without flash."

              Man I went the other way. Having a blast with m43's crazy IBIS and being able to take 2 second handheld exposures and killer night images while travelling. I need something to shoot indoor basketball with which is where the A7III will step it up a notch. Canon's lack of an IBIS solution is a crippling omission though.

        • db87 on 11/08/2019 - 20:19
          +2

          No offense but I don't think you've even touched the surface of the Olympus/m43 inventory.

          12mm, 17mm and 25mm are all amazing primes. The 45 is a great cheap prime but doesn't even come close to the others in the list. I had the pleasures of owning the 75mm also and wow, it truly put some full frame gear to shame. This was all strapped to the em1, so your em5 mk1 should be similar as far as sensor/camera tech, the em1 only added some bells and whistles.

          If you've lost interest in your Olympus or not explored it any further than you currently have, I honestly doubt you'll extract anything extra out of this setup.

    • AussieDaddy on 11/08/2019 - 14:19

      I would say don't do it if you have no use for it. I bought gear I haven't used even once over the years that I regret that I bought them in the first place.

    Got tired of waiting for the A7SIII so bought a Nikon Z6 kit. Otherwise I would have grabbed this. Really good price; would be a good second camera for me, but then new batteries, cards, cage, etc, etc. Sigh…

    • kiitos on 11/08/2019 - 14:42

      How are you finding the Z6? Have you had any other systems to compare with?

  • bargainjargon on 11/08/2019 - 14:19

    Good deal. I bought one but I'm anticipating something will go wrong with the order. Worth a shot either way.

    Got the lens last year when it first came out. It's so good but at the time I thought was a bit overpriced at $1800 so I sold it. Happy to buy it again (along with the A7III) at this price though.

    Doesn't look like a price error but more like a bundle promo.

    Price error is like the current news issue past week on JB hi-fi $100 odd dollars Nikon SLR with lens. Funny thing is how people have the balls to appear in life television or news to demand that they honour the mistake when they already know the gamble. Some people are just plain greedy and have any pride in what they are fighting for.

    • TEER3X on 11/08/2019 - 20:05

      That ACA episode made me laugh, I was lucky enough to see it as it was playing in the background after the news.

      Do people really expect anyone to feel sorry for them after not getting a price mistake honoured? Or that they are somehow entitled to the product or other compensation when trying to capitalize on a price mistake?

      (The last straw for me was when I met someone famous and the result was always out of focus)
