TL;DR: The high-quality Panasonic Lumix G7 4K digital mirrorless camera is half off today, dropping the price to $497.99 — and that includes two interchangeable lenses.

We don’t typically cover camera deals at Mashable because everyone has amazing cameras built right in to their phones, but Amazon’s deal of the day is too good to pass up.

Right now, you can save 50% on the Panasonic Lumix G7 (DMC-G7WK) 4K digital mirrorless camera with two interchangeable lenses. That means you can get a high-quality camera and two lenses for just $497.99.

To give you some perspective, I bought a Nikon D5300 with an 18-55mm lens a few years ago and it put me out about $900. This Panasonic is mirrorless and shoots 4K, neither of which are features in the Nikon, and it’s about $400 less than what I paid. Plus, it comes with an extra lens. If you are looking to get into photography or you’re just wanting to add another camera to your collection, you should definitely hop on this deal before it’s gone. Read more...
