Correct me if I'm wrong, but to do live-view on the rear LCD screen, (unless the reflex mirror is partially transmitting to the main image sensor itself, which I don't think is the case here) the...

To be clear, obviously a current customer could look through another brand to get an idea of the view through a DSLR optical viewfinder. But looking through a cheap pentamirror-based optical...

There might be a place for Pentax. But Pentax has to execute better than a few tweaks to an old design. To keep costs down, models should not be replaced too often, but still...

Going forward,...

"I need to win a lottery."

Well, there is the Powerball drawing tonight!

Since you noted that many of your current wide-angle shots were taken at 25mm full-frame equivalent, you...

@ralphthemagician

And even worse dynamic range if the output is ink on paper (a print).

Yeah, and a real location background often gets thrown so out of focus that you might as well have shot in a studio with an abstractly-painted cloth one.

I should also add that the recent Sigma 90mm f/2.8 DG DN could, with a bit of cropping on a high resolution body, be a modern, wonderfully-small, not-overly-expensive replacement for my film-era...

@Ze De Boni

I mostly agree, but it depends on needs and finances. If the OP cannot afford much new glass at the same time he buys a body, older glass could be of some service.

For my A7R IV, I...

If you adapt lenses, I recommend the latest two generations (third or fourth, (with the orange band)) of K&F Concept adapters, at least for those mounts for which it is available. Well made and...

Don't forget adapted vintage manual-focus lenses, some of which are still reasonably priced, either as a temporary measure until you flesh out your lens kit with modern glass, or in some cases even...

Good to know there will now be competition for my equipment dollars when I set up my phony doctor's office in some strip mall or storage unit!

Could have used "HADES".

Then in their advertising, they could have had testimonials:
"HELL OF A CAMERA!"

@Yxa

Thought of that too, but that would have been speculation on my part. Is your statement known fact, or similar speculation?

Different product, but what about Plymouth, or Oldsmobile?

The iconic OP-System!

Does anyone know if the A7R V focus-bracketing feature:

1) works with all Sony lenses, or only a subset, and if the latter, which ones?

2) works with other brand lenses -- especially the Sigma...

Even for non-landscape uses, a high-res body can be a significant benefit, in the sense that if not overly rushed in post, and your lenses are good enough (preferably top-quality primes), you can...

As an A7R IV owner, it looks like the A7R V has definite benefits, that would, however, only be manifest for me a relatively-small fraction of the time. So I think I'll instead spend what would be...

@Younes B:

"and what do you think of the actual IQ form the camera? I think it is the purpose of this samples gallery"

I already own an A7R IV, which has the same resolution. I expect the IQ of...

To elaborate, what I mean is that a significant portion of your 24-70mm zoom shots are taken at one extreme or the other, 24mm or 70mm, and the 24mm on the zoom duplicates your 24mm prime, while a...
