Amazon now has the Sony A7iii in stock with the 28-70mm lens for $2198! Click here.
Also consider this Sony A7riii bundle. For the regular $2999 price of the Sony A7riii, get the Sony A7riii along with Sony Memory Card 128GB UHS-II SD ($91 value), Sony Soft Carrying Case | Sony Gun Zoom Microphone ECM-GZ1M ($68 value). If you shoot video, you’ll appreciate the microphone, and every new Sony A7riii buyer needs UHS-II memory cards, so it’s a nice $160+ in extras.
My favorite Sony A7iii bundle on Amazon is currently out of stock, but keep an eye open for it: has in stock a mega bundle for $3,448 including the following:
-
- Sony A7iii
- Sony 28-70mm kit lens. (Kit of Sony A7iii + 28-70 regular price is $2198)
- Sony FE 16-35mm F/4 (my recent review here) Regular price is $1348
- Sony 64GB UHS-II SD Memory Card (regular price $56)
So those core elements, are $3,600. As discussed in my review of the Sony 16-35mm f/4, it’s an excellent lens and every Sony shooter should have an ultrawide lens, as they really shine with the Sony system. You will probably want a new UHS-II card to take advantage of the speed of the Sony A7iii. So these are excellent elements at a savings of about $150. Then you get all the following lesser value extras:
-
- Monoprice Weatherproof 12″ x 10″ x 8″ Hard Case
- Monoprice Palette-Series 2.0 USB-C to USB-A Cable (6 Feet / Black)
- Focus Lens Cleaning Pen
- Lens Pen Cleaning Tool
- Focus 5-Piece Digital Camera Cleaning Kit
- Monoprice Weatherproof Hard Case
- Corel Software Kit
- Wasabi Power Battery (2-Pack) and Dual Charger
- Rode Microphones VideoMicro On-Camera Mic
If you’re a video shooter, you will appreciate the on-camera mic. The extra batteries will benefit everyone. Even the hard case is about a $40 value. The software is a nice addition if you’re not already an Adobe subscriber. So overall, it’s a good kit, if you had any interest in ultra wide shooting.
Lens Status:
The Sony 24-105mm F/4 remains very demanded. My review here. Amazon appears to only have it available through third party sellers, here.
