Black's: Sony NEX-F3 16.1MP Digital Camera with 18-55mm Lens $380, 30mm F3.5 Macro Le

[购物指南]

If you're in the market for a new camera, but want something a little more advanced than your average point and shoot, Black's has a really good deal on a popular Sony offering worth considering. For a limited time, you can pick up the Sony NEX-F3 16.1MP Digital Camera with 18-55mm Lens on sale for $379.99 -- down from $599.99 and a sweet price for a well reviewed mirrorless camera. Seeing as how you're normally on the hook for $600 for the bundle, it would be hard not to at least consider it for a shade under $400.

Putting $400 into a new camera can be quite off-putting for new camera buyers -- especially now that point and shoots are so affordable. The NEX-F3, however, does have great features that set it apart from your average camera including:

• 16.1 MP Exmor APS HD CMOS Sensor
• 3.0” TFT Xtra Fine with TruBlack Technology
• 1080p HD Video Recording
• ISO 200-16000
• 255 Grams

If you're still not convinced reviews from DPreview, Imaging Resource, Wired, Engadget and PC MAG were all fairly positive. Despite the camera buttons being a bit cramped, the flash being a little underpowered and the omission of an external battery charger, the NEX-F3 is a very good mirrorless camera that's both affordable and a capable performer.

Just a heads up, Black's also has the Sony 30mm F3.5 Macro Sel Lens on sale for $169.99.

Both deals are live now but we're not sure for how long. If you don't want to miss out, you'll want to get your order in soon.
