David Schloss: “should you buy the a7R5 now?”
Sony A7rV Preorders:
In US at BHphoto, Amazon, Adorama, FocusCamera, BeachCamera, Buydig.
In EU at Fotokoch, Amazon EU, FotoErhardt, Calumet DE, WexUK. ParkCameras UK.
In Australia at CameraPro, Camerahouse, Sony.
David Schloss reviewed the Sony A7rV and his conclusion in short:
Buy the Sony A1 if you need 10fps or faster, buy the Sony a7rv if your current camera is dying or you need a camera today, no one should buy an a9, and everyone else should wait.
Tamron patented a series of Full Frame f/1.4 primes
Tamron may be working on a series of f/1.4 fast primes. A newly published patent describes the design of following lenses:
- 28mm f/1.4
- 30mm f/1.4
- 35mm f/1.4
- 40mm f/1.4
- 50mm f/1.4
Wonder if they will ever make such lenses considering we already have f/1.4 primes from Sony, Samyang and Sigma!

FUTURE Sony cameras: The A6xxx, A9III, A7sIII and many more need a replacement in 2023!
We ain’t getting any new camera in November-December. But in 2023 a lot of Sony Alpha cameras are due for a replacement:
- Sony A6600 (August 28, 2019) 3 years and 4 months old
- Sony A6100 (August 28, 2019) 3 years and 4 months old
- Sony A9II (October 3, 2019) 3 years and 2 months old
- Sony A7sIII (July 28, 2020) 2 years and 4 months old
- Sony A7c (September 15, 2020) 2 years and 2 months old
- Sony A1 (January 26, 2021) 1 year and 11 months old
Consider that on average Sony announces a camera replacement after 3 years and you will quickly notice a surprisingly large number of cameras will be 3+ year old in 2023!
- A6xxx:
The A6xxx line has to be updated in 2023 if Sony still wants to be considered as a serious APS-C contender. And recently Sony stated clearly that they have to release new APS-C bodies: “Unfortunately, I can’t mention future products in detail, but yes, we understand the market demand for APS-C models as well, and we’ve never stopped development of them.” - A9III:
I also do believe the A9III is coming in 2023. I have no solid specs yet but I discussed some wild rumors on my latest youtube video. - A7sIV:
I got no info about a possible A7sIV in 2023. But maybe towards the end of the year we will get an 8K A7sIV too? - A7cII:
I see this likely to be announced in 2023. Basically again a copy paste model of the current A7IV. - Sony A1II:
I think it’s more likely we will get this camera in 2024.
In this list I didn’t mention possible ZV or RX fixed lens cameras…but this is worth to be talked about in a future new post :)
