Sony a7 V announced - $3000 is now entry level

Somehow strange that they did not put this technology in the FX2. 

I assume the development on the photo side is stronger. 

For the videoside it just reduces some of the A74 biggest flaws. The Crop on 60p has cost me some nice shots, i find the rolling shutter not too problematic even though i hate the effct- haven't shot for the big screen though. 

Will be super interesting to see a comparison of the picture of the  A74 to the A75 -again skintones is what i am most interested in...

I wonder when the first comparison video's will turn up. Would love to see some side by sides. Not sure why there are 30 video reviews out there from people just talking about the camera without comparing it to other camera's. Specs on paper is one thing. but I want see comparision against other camera's (IQ, (crop or no crop), AF, stabilisation,...)
Still think the nikon zr got the rest beat IQ wise. But would love to see it perform against the R6III, nikon zr and the panasonic s1II.

My guess is they have a lot of those sensors they need to offload and this is one way of doing it.

Horrible line skipping in Full HD. Pleasing noise in Angle of View Priority mode.

no H.265-based codec available in 4K in 25 fps and in Full HD.. I find the lack of 25P in Xavc-hs after 5 years is quite disturbing, I usually switch to xavc-s for 4K25p in 420 8bit 60Mbps which is bigger filesize and less flexible in post on machines that dont have fan like E10II and E1, on FX3/FX30 I just shoot 50P all the way.
