Sony just ended their trade-in/trade-up event and for those of you that missed it or were unable to take advantage of it, my sympathies, as it is one of the best times to buy into a Sony system (read: when it’s here next, maybe in a year – get on it). However, do not despair as Sony has just today released a slew of other sales, and if you’re in the market or have been considering an E mount camera like the a5100, a600, a6300, or even the new a6500, it has you covered with savings up to $350.
Sony has been leading the pack for quite some time in the realm of small mirrorless and throughout the line-up there is likely something to suit each desire and need, and each is very versatile. And don’t let the nomenclature fool you into disregarding the smaller numbers, because they are all good; We know photographers who make incredible videos and and imagery with bodies that aren’t the newest, and they’re incredibly adaptable. You can take a look at Brandon Li‘s work for a taste of what is possible with these small cameras (see example below – filmed on an NEX-5nm which is an older iteration of some of what’s listed here).
So, you can check out the full list of Sony deals here, but here are some of what’s on offer:
Sony Alpha a6500 with 16-70mm Lens Kit ($100 off)
Sony Alpha a6300 with 16-70mm Lens Kit ($150 off)
