Buy the lens, get the camera, bag, and card for $24.99.
Can't beat that with a stick.
People find a lot of things to complain about, but you have to admit, deals don't come much better than free. Amazon's Deal of the Day today is...a free camera.
It's actually a Sony NEX-5TL for $299.
However, it comes with the super-compact pancake Sony 16–50mm ƒ/3.5–5.6 OSS Power Zoom lens...which by itself sells for $298.
So actually I guess that means they are throwing in the camera for $1.99. (So not quite free. In case you are looking for something to complain about.)
Normal price for the body only: $499.
Don't need the lens? Sell it for a further discount on the camera. Just want the lens? Sell the camera for a big discount on the lens.
Hard to beat, either way.
You can also get it with a soft case and a 16GB card for $23 more.

Already bought a free camera from them - the NX300 for $310 (Warehouse) minus 18-55 OIS, Lightroom v4 and the rest. I had assembled a similar kit with 20-50 minizoom and paid more w/o the baby external flash. The hybrid AF on the NEX and the NX are nice & worth having.

There's a similar deal to be had on the similar Sony a5000 at B&H (and possibly elsewhere).

If it only had a viewfinder....sung to the song "If I only had a brain" Wizard of Oz. If it only had a viewfinder I could actually take accurately framed pictures with it. And see the menus in bright sunshine. If, only, I did not need reading glasses. Ah, so it goes.

I don't suppose Leica will ever engage in this carry-on....
