Sony A7r V

Pros: Stabilization, super versatile monitor, AI, focus stacking, infinite bulb, curtain protection, etc. etc.

Cons: Cost?

Opinion: I come from the R3 that gave me a lot of satisfaction but after several years there was a need for a generational change. I've had the R5 for a few weeks but I'm already in love with it. This is quite a leap forward with countless improvements over the R3. I share all the opinions already expressed by those who preceded me (except the Canon :) fanboy) but perhaps no one mentioned the improvement of the stabilization of the camera that, if added to the internal one of some lenses, allows you to take freehand photos with unthinkable times for the R3: last night with the 14 1.8 I took up to two seconds and many photos were perfectly in focus! With the 70-200 at maximum extension shooting at 1/30 is feasible (with the R3 it was impossible). As a landscaper I really appreciate the operational flexibility of the monitor, the focus stacking, the practically infinite bulb time (no more remote controls) and the protection of the sensor with the curtain when changing the lens (I often happen to be outdoors in weather or environmental situations that are not optimal). I'm not a portrait painter but having such AI available for focusing is definitely convenient. For those who have the R3 I absolutely recommend the upgrade: of course it costs a lot but I think it's worth the expense.
