And available for online orders.

The prices seem a bit strange since all the kits are priced the same whether you go for a 80mm or a 240mm (or even the very average 28mm f4.5 go figure), but these are probably early bugs.

As far as I know, this is the first time that P1 products are sold this way?

Cheers,
Bernard

No matter I can not read this language, Phase One Kit includes a lens of your choice - for the same price (except for the zoom lenses).
I have seen that often the most expensive lenses were taken and immediately sold again - to make a profit.
The lenses in the kit are guaranteed for 5 years.
The warranty is bound to the hardware and not to the buyer.

Greeting Gerd

P1 kit pricing has included prime lens of your choice for quite some time.
