Nice deal. The lens alone costs 699$. Yes, the camera is a couple of generations old (it has been surpassed by the XE-2 and the X-T1), but it offers the same resolution as the current Fuji cameras, if not the same focusing speed.
Spinifexyou can pick up a like new 2nd hand for $250 USD or less. This thing is too much for $600 USD these days. The EVF and screen is quite terrible for peak focusing. And it's very slow.
And that lens is probably the most expensive kit lens on the market. Sigma's 17-70/2.8-4 is not worse than it but much cheaper.
semkathen i guess you don't have to use an x-mount? If this is a XE2 combo I think it would be fair but too much for XE1. The new AF feature would be released to XE2 in a month or two.
