Camera shoppers are spoilt for choices.
Seems to be record low price for this kit.
If you got Ultimate GCs (equivalent to 10% off), you'd be laughing even more.
If not, buy JB GCs from Shopback app for up to 3% cash back.
Better still, CR has 5% cash back on Ultimate GC which can take your net cost under $2k!
Very nice
is it too late to buy 10% GC?
Is your local Big W still open? ;-)
sadly no :( another 10% off this is a ripper of a deal
Great all-round hybrid FF kit for 2k!
Damn, monster deal
Awesome images from this sensor.
Im not sure which deal is better, the lumix s5ii or the a7iii here: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/877584 . Id use it for both photography and videos. Any help is appreciated!
For video, the Lumix S5ii by far!
A73 has been that sale price for years.
A73 released: 2018
S5ii released: 2023
In 2024 the A73 is well below par in regards to video centric features.
I sold my A73 years ago, good camera. There is just better options in 2024 if you are not tied to a system..
S5 ii being latest tech is so much better

It is even better than the more expensive Sony a7 iv in a few areas

Oh man! I am SO mad that I missed out on this :(
Yeah me too - I bought mine back in June for ~$500 more! (I needed it for a holiday, so not much I can do there…)
Surprisingly, the most important feature turned out to be the weather sealing, as I was caught out in the rain a few times photographing and filming a cycling touring race in France (yes, the big one)… Weatherproofing was not something I even considered in my research.
Incidentally, for all the lucky ducks who bought the camera from this deal, some of the Panasonic L-mount lens are currently on sale at Amazon e.g.
$1028 for Panasonic LUMIX S Series, 70-300mm F4.5-5.6
$1078.30 for Panasonic LUMIX S Series, 28-200mm F4-7.1
I bought S5iix body only few months ago.
