Several options.

1. You can buy any cheap camera accessory from buydig and user that order number to submit a trade-in form. They will send you an email coupon for about $300 that is good towards a new purchase of sony mirrorless camera.

2. You can submit trade-in form for your existing camera equipment (camera or lens or accessories), they will respond with their offer plus an email coupon for about $300 that is good towards a new purchase of sony mirrorless camera.

3. You can buy sony mirrorless camera at full price, then submit trade-in form with either of above option. They will refund the trade-in value plus the bonus of about $300 on the purchase you already made.

Once you submit the trade-in form and they provide their offer, there is a process to ship your equipment, evaluate the condition you initially mentioned in the form etc to confirm the final offer price.

A quick google search show for Fair price and very simple process, many people said Keh Camera which offer both Trade or Sell.
https://www.keh.com/
Next places would be B&H and Adorama.
https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/find/trade-in.jsp
https://www.adorama.com/help/usedMarketplace

I assume you can get a quote from all three places before you decide which one to send your equipment to(?) May be someone can provide their experiences with them.


If you don't mind to be responsible for everything yourself (including communicating with buyer and shipping camera equipment and potential handle customer complain (and return, etc), then eBay, Facebook Marketplace.

This was the response on that lens
Dear Customer, unfortunately we are unable to provide a value to the lens you are trading in. However, you are still eligible for the Sony Bonus

That means you dont have to send anything back.
I am planning to return it to get the FULL refund.
"the lens you are trading in" I believe you still need to trade-in the lens. The value they're talking about is the additional value on top of the discount.

I got the $300 coupon when i tried to trade in $7 "lens" purchased.

When I tried to buy A7c with kit lens, it showed $300 applied, but when I placed order it charged me the full amount ( $1898)

Did any one have a similar experience?

I emailed and also called them and they will credit me back.

Really depend on what you needs. Someone asked before which camera support 4k60 video and will need to buy certain full frame camera like a7IV for that.

And If you google for Sony a7 iv and sony a6x00 for low light performance, you can probably notice there are noticeable differences. The idea is pretty simple, Full frame sensors is a lot bigger than APS-C sensor. And usually bigger the sensors, each sensor has bigger pixels which mean each pixel can capture more light. So less noise at higher ISOs and better in low light situations.

In term of size and weight. Some people like smaller size/weight APS-C camera but some people actually prefer something like Sony a7 IV over smaller size a7C a6600 because the grip and size may be better to hold for bigger hand.

In term of differences between smaller size full frame camera a7c and A7IV which most people prefer. I have watched many youtube video that compare something like A7C (very similar size/weight to A6600 but a7C is full-frame already) vs A7IV and most would prefer A7 IV over A7C for low light performance and better grip, better video feature (like 4k60), better autofocus, better stabilization, built-in webcam streaming, etc. There are few youtuber won't mind A7C because they like the smaller size and don't mind the slightly poorer low light performance (probably still better than a6600) and the other enhancement mentioned.

Here is one website that talk about differences between A7C and A7 IV
https://mirrorlesscomparison.com/...iv-vs-a7c/.

You can find a tons of comparison website between full frame like A7IV and APS-C camera like A6600.

Amazon Warehouse has 20% off selected item.

Right now they have Sony a7 III ILCE7M3/B Full-Frame Mirrorless Interchangeable-Lens Camera, (Used: Very Good)
For $1,479.03 - 20% ($295.81) = $1183.22 (used)

Does anyone know what value of product gets $500 bonus?
I believe of the cameras would get $300. I am in split between A7R III vs A7R IV. if A7RIV gets $500 bonus off, then I would go with that.
