I'm starting to consider a used A7R4 more and more. Unless other reviews give it a lot of praise I feel like the R4 will just give me a lot more bang-for-buck and similar AF performance for general use. I'd much rather take 61MP at 10 fps than 33MP at 10 fps.
I'm also not really convinced yet why this new sensor was made if it has worse IBIS and similar DR. Pitching it as a discount A1 is good of course, but I don't think that's enough for most especially if there's some shortcomings.
I feel the A7r4 is the better purchase myself but of course that depends on what you are doing. This will not in any way shape or form replace a A9 or A9II and 33 mpx is just not a big enough jump but 61 is and a lightly used A7R4 at 61 plus still having great AF speed and such might be the better option. If the pricing is at 2400 or 2500 makes you wonder. The A7III was great for its time and I used it a lot but the the A7C is far better as far as file. The A9II is more specific for a certain need for me but a used A7r4 would be a cam with enough difference to revisit it
Im out on this one
