The X-A5 ships in early February for $600, including lens. It is available for pre-order now. The XC15-45mmF3.5- 5.6 OIS PZ Lens will also be available separately in mid-March for $300.

S ... it's the SAME lens ....

You can buy the camera now (with the lens) ... but you won't get it till March ... but you pay for it up-front!

No it meant that you can buy the camera and the lens now for $600 but you can only buy the lens alone in March for $300. Right now if you buy you can only get the whole kit.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh ... is THAT what that means, D?

I took it to mean you have to wait till March for the lens, no matter what ....

But, since it's included in the price of the camera, if you buy it now, you'll have to live w/o the lens, until March!

How clever of you to figure that out, D!

There's nothing wrong with this picture. Odd that this has to be explained.

If you buy the combo now, you will get both the camera and the lens. If you need the lens for a body you already own, you will have to wait a month.

Thanks, Bob ...

When I first read it, I thought the second listing was for another lens, but, then, I realized it was the same one ....

Thanks, Scotty ... I realize that, now ....

Actually, when I decided to post it - as insignificant as it was ... it was a way to get it "out there" .... know what I mean?

Lemme tell ya, Hal ...

These "facts" had me confused, for a minute!

Sounded like the camera was $300, the lens an additional $300 ...

And, if you wanted the lens, you'd have to wait till March to get it ....

But, you could buy the camera, w/o the lens, now ... but, you'd still have to pay the $600 up-front! ... I go - what the ?
