Re: Pre-orders open! Sony A7R III and FE 24-105mm f/4 OSS lens!
I feel there is one aspect overlooked here. Like with the D850 update over the D810, my experience is that AF speed/accuracy and consistency is now superb with native lenses but more so with third party lenses like Sigma Art. Where before I had some inconsistency issues with Art series AF, it is no longer there.
I suspect with the newer AF module with the A7rIII will drive the MB V and the Sigma MC 11 faster and more consistently. This is worthy of the upgrade alone.
Also when we are viewing a single dimensional DR chart based on certain settings, it takes away many of improvements you see with actual shots. The case is point is the D810 compared with D850, the D850 is quite an improvement over the D810. I see in improvements in color depth, tonality, shadow noise, WB stability( not blowing channels in artificial lighting) and a AF module that will yield a much higher percentage of shots in focus. Yes the improvements in AF speed/accuracy is important as you may have a uber sharp lens, but not capturing the decisive moment is meaningless regardless of camera/lens combo.
This is how I see the improvements with A7rIII compared to the ArII. I no longer have the A7rII, but I will consider the a7rIII if I don't opt for the M10 and 35 FLE
