Pros & Cons
Pros
The r5 is a great camera with a fast auto focus system. Its sharp, autofocus is downright fast and despite the crop mode on 4k60fps, it's still pretty much a hybrid camera. It has a very narrow dof, making shooting with lenses with really narrow dof v... Read More
The a7r5 has a 61 mp sensor that delivers amazing detail in images. The articulating lcd viewfinder, while it was once used in the old a99v, is back and is great. I like the new layout of the camera * and dials.
Not a deal breaker at all. With the various financing programs sony has, this is a no-brainer. Expensive purchase though. Preparing to shell out four grand on a camera body.
Image quality is even better than my previous canon eos r6. There is perceptible more grain under high iso. Picture quality is good but slightly pixilated with the shots i’ve taken thus far.
Megapixels give such high-quality shots that each picture you get, you can zoom and crop really giving you several shots in one. The 29 minutes video recording limitation (a major annoyance) is gone. This is the latest model in the sony lineup.
Cons
Sony raw processing seems to work with adobe photoshop, but that's not where i do most of my work. The only blessing is that jpeg and heif formats come through. Not supported by apple photos app.

Price
I'll spend the $400 to get the a7r3 fixed because it's still a great camera.
I didn't feel the a1 really fit my needs, or budget, so i waited.
Packaging/appearance
The product came on perfect packaging and the camera was neatly packed on the box.
Competitiveness
It comes in way less than the a1 on price and since i didn't need that capability, this model is perfect for my needs.
Sony has a variety of models to choose from that are tailored for your specific needs.

Way more than i'd really need, but not as good as some other models out there.

The high resolution makes for more useful creativity in that a poorly composed shot can still be heavily cropped and edited without significant loss of imagery details in the final rendition
