Fuji X-A1 + free lens

This is pretty tempting with the 2nd free 50-230mm lens.

Any gotcha on the camera or lenses? Sounds great value for money.

Still waiting. Might send them an email.

Incidentally, I caught some buffoon on a shopping channel claiming you couldn't do proper or serious photography without an optical viewfinder? I think he was advertising a Fuji XT1 which was ironic since Fuji also do the XA1 which I think is a perfectly good and capable camera?

And extra ironic because the X-T1 doesn't have an optical viewfinder either....

I might have known: EVF then which is almost indistinguishable from an optical viewfinder thanks to its ultra fast display speed.

Wasn't a pop at you, assumed the aforementioned buffoon had mistaken it for an OVF.

Just me being too lax with my description
