Some one give me the push I need to order the A7R6 . I do portrait, event, media day. A1 for my sports body. Not really a wildlife photographer.
I'm having major regrets selling my 7R5 and it hasn't even been delivered to its new owner. I might just buy back on the BST. Oops.
So many compromises with the R6 that it's making the decision very difficult for me. Same recycled garbage rear screen for example.... Do the new battery grips still feel light an after thought on these? Is wireless tethering improved at all?
Just to add, there was a known problem well documented on multiple forums where some Sony battery grips did not fit well on some A7RV bodies (Sony acknowledged this to some customers and said it a was a part out of spec issue). I was one who had this issue and there was a pretty large gap where the grip did not meet the body. Thankfully Sony resolved it for the R6 and the grip cinches up nice and tight against the body and feels very solid. It feels better for my grip than the Z9 I used to shoot.
