On Google Trends the new Sony A7III had triple the impact of the A7rIII

Analysing Google trends it becomes clear the A7III is a big success for Sony. It got three times the attention compared to the A7rIII.

For the record: The A9 launch last year got double the searches of the A7III. Time to bring on the A9r Sony ;)
