That would be a cool promotion. They could do it for the first 1,000 units. Instead of selling them, Sigma could give them away. If they're going to sell 15,000 units that might actually be a great marketing idea. It would certainly get them a lot of free press, and it wouldn't add that much to the price of the 14,000 other cameras they'd sell over the following year or two (or three or four).

I wonder how many people would take that deal. I'm pretty sure I would

Maybe. Or maybe not such a cool deal if it causes you to spend £10,000 on lenses you wouldn't otherwise have bought.  Sounds a bit like that old joke about people returning from the sales claiming to have acquired tremendous money-off bargains - on things they would never have bought.
