Part of the Afterpay deal on ebay. Camera has dropped to $836 and with the Afterpay discount it comes down to $718. A number of other retailers have it at $836 (inc. Amazon) but no one else seems to have any further discounts.
This is a seriously good price. I’ve had my eye on it for a few months waiting for a good deal and the previous best price was $778. Has been as high as $1099.
Referee: $10 off 1st purchase.
Referrer: $10/$20/$30 off $100/$150/$250 Spend.
Anything you would recommend as an alternative?
Well only a problem if you are looking for lens down the track. If you are buying if for just a sole purpose without worrying about lens etc still a relatively good camera.
Buy the EF adaptor, then you’ve got a huge range of lenses that will go onto it. Bigger than necessary maybe, but it’s quite a range.
Have the ef adaptor and have zero issues. Benefit also is a bunch of the lenses for this mount pop up on promo so helps also
For my fairly basic use it’s a great buy. Small and compact for travel with a few lenses available.
Can stack with gift card?
yes, you can
I bought this camera ages ago when I was considering going with a smaller kit, and it's a good camera
but performance greatly depends on what you pair it with. focusing on all native lenses is STM and not the fastest implementation either.
native glass: 22/2 lens has very good IQ, cheap and cpmpact option for a good walk around build (equiv 35mm)
also native superzooms are really worth looking at (18-150 and 55-200), they are relatively small and good IQ but you are limited to outdoors pretty much, that slow aperture plus small sensor means focus struggles and noisy images, also it doesn't have extended Auto ISO settings so you can't tell it not to shoot slower than 1/125 if you're in aperture priority, means blurry images, and there's no IBIS
11-22 is a great wide angle lens, but it's slow too, and indoors images are noisy
so 22/2 and some fast Sigma primes designed for this mount are the only viable options if you don't want to limit yourself to sunny outdoors
I agree on 22mm f2 and sigma 30mm f1.4 for general photography. I only wish they'd have released one model with IBIS and I'd be more than happy to stick with system long term.
Indeed that was the ongoing rumor. Never eventuated. Happy with my M6 Mk2 with the Sigma trio of primes.

Well not bad but this camera and the whole M line is discontinued. So think twice.
