Official: Sony A7R V announced (pre-orders now available)

Well this is some senseless brand apology but whatever. You shouldn’t assume that Sony will update your camera when buying one at this point. They are a completely known quantity.

It’s pathetic that they continue to hold easy to implement software features to future models. Judging by their growing market share, no one actually seems to care except when they are on forums.

--that older cameras should be revised for free by manufacturers to make them the equivalent of new cameras

--that Sony is your mother
