That was fast. They had 50 online a couple hours ago. Great camera for it's size. It's my light carry around camera.

Darn...

Silver showing in-stock if ordered before 10:30 EST...worth a try? I'm going to pass, can't afford to spend so much on camera/lens right now

I ordered one last night. For the type of photography I do, I'm looking at getting the wide angle conversion adapter as well. It's $99 from B&H right now, $130 shipped to my door.

That 16mm is not that good at f2.8. Decent deal though!

Shows error when I try. Both the black and silver ones. Also tried going through the website and not direct links.

I think it's OOS already.

I'm waiting to see if other retailers drop price.

!MiKrofT 09-17-2011 07:11 PM
Yeah its too late now. Should see more price drops when the new versions are out.

Played with the 5n. Definitely more robust and slimmer than the first gen.

I always laugh whenever I see people burst fire on their camera. Especially on those full frame DSLRs.

LiquidTurbo 09-17-2011 11:19 PM
So who actually ended up getting one?

I ordered one Friday night. Waiting for it to ship before I get the fisheye and wide-angle adapters for the pancake.

Reasons I got it? Size (hiking) + sweep-pano + in-camera-HDR (curiosity, doubt I'll actually use it often). And of course... PRICE!

^ It's a fun little camera! Though I wished the new EVF is compatible with the First gen 5. Little peeve it isn't, though spending another 400ish bucks on the evf is pretty much like buying an NEX-7. ;)

Why would you laugh? I use it during sporting events.

Boostslut 09-18-2011 02:50 PM
I use burst for nature photography, sports, motorsport, sometimes even landscape!

Wish i got to jump on this NEX deal, perfect for the g/f!

Sorry, I meant when people do burst for subjects that are not moving.

^ burstfire is good for group pictures. People always blink when you say smile!

!MiKrofT 09-23-2011 03:45 PM
Apparently the ones from Henry's were all open box ones.

Blacks has these on sale too

Black's - Category (Sony Cameras)

A bit more $$ but brand new in box.

Out of stock online but maybe you can find in store.
