Well, A7R5 released in 2022 and even then, it was an upgrade from A7R4 with a same sensor while re-used it for A7CR. I wouldn't be surprised by the current price.

Same story with the RX10 IV, saw some pretty good, low, used prices.
Now, if only Sony could update their GM lenses sooner or simply, fill in the blanks.. 28/1.4 GM, 40/1.4 GM, 75/1.4 GM..

$2,000 USD (about $2,800 CAD) is actually a fair price. Change your Marketplace location to Vancouver, Canada, and you’ll see even crazier deals.
The worst part is that nothing is selling even at these prices. People are simply holding on to their money, as Canada is in what the media has termed a “technical recession.”

I do not find the world whacky: I bought one for this reason. Very nice camera. I use it to complement my Leica M11.
I either use a Sigma 20-200 or a LM-EA9 and M lenses.
I had a A7 many years ago but I did not liked it that much so I sold it after a year or two. But the A7r V is a keeper up to the point where I wonder what I'm gonna keep from my extensive set of micro43 bodies and lenses.
