The Sony Zeiss Sonnar T* FE 55mm F1.8 ZA E-mount goes for $900 at authorized USA dealers, but they are can bundle it with free items, and Adorama is bundling it with a $50 Adorama Gift Certificate for the same price of $900… On the other hand, if you want to go the imported grey-market route, you can get it in new condition with a 3-year warranty from the seller (not Sony Zeiss) GetItDigital on eBay for $763 with free shipping…
Imported Fuji X-T1 Body w/1yr Seller Warranty for $679
The Fuji X-T1 body only goes for $1000 in new condition at authorized Fuji USA dealers which are allowed to include free items with it, for example, B&H Photo includes the official Fuji battery grip for it, while Adorama includes a variety of general-purpose accessories.
But if you are comfortable with buying imported grey-market items that come with a 1-year seller warranty (not from Fuji USA), then to the Trending eBay Deals we go where eBay seller “Electronics Valley” (99.6%, ships from New Jersey) is offering the new condition imported grey-market Fuji X-T1 Body Only for $679 with free shipping with a limit of five units per customer.
As usual with imported items, it is up to you to decide on a per item basis whether the risk is worth the lower price. We blog, you decide!

Stock Tracker Update: Both Nikon D500 Kits In-Stock at More Places, Canon 1D X II CFAST Low Stock
We just updated the Stock Status Tracker and since the previous updates, we have some good news on the Nikon D500 front. The D500 body only is now in-stock at its starting price of $2000 at Amazon by Amazon herself and Adorama and B&H Photo… Meanwhile the D500 w/16-80mm kit is now in-stock at Amazon as well for its obscure price of $3067… On the Canon 1D X II CFAST Kit front, the Adorama website has a LOW STOCK alert, which means it may go out of stock soon (depending on demand as usual since this is a $6000 flagship)… It should go without saying when not mentioned in these alerts, the Pentax K-1 remains out of stock…
PS: if the Stock Status Tracker looks a bit different, it’s because we retired the Nikon D5 kits. They had been steadily in-stock for a number of days in a row, so there is no need to track them any more. If you have any not-yet-released cameras you’d like to see tracked, please leave a comment or use the online contact form.
