First post so go a little easy on a young buck, this may be the cheapest (at least that I have seen) for this body and it is usually excluded from the Sony Camera Sales at JB.

I've had one of these since release (Pre-ordered through George's Cameras but was hard to get stock in) and it has been an excellent shooter especially for low-light (I've been shooting nightclubs with this for the past 10 months or so). Was around $3,000 +/- $200 at launch (with JB Hi-Fi being on the higher end of this).

Key Features:

Newly developed full-frame 24.2MP back-illuminated Exmor R™ CMOS image sensor with evolved image processing

Wide ISO range of 100 - 51200 (expandable to ISO 50 – 204800 for still images) and 15-Stop dynamic range at low sensitivities

World class AF system featuring 693 phase-detection AF points covering 93% of image area, 425 contrast AF points and fast and reliable Eye AF

Continuous shooting at up to 10 fps with either mechanical shutter or silent shootingiv and full Auto Focus/Auto Exposure tracking

5-axis optical in-body image stabilisation with a 5.0 stepv shutter speed advantage

High resolution 4K movie shooting with full pixel readout and no pixel binning across full-width of full-frame sensor

The longest rated battery life of any mirrorless camera at 710 shots per charge

Upgraded operability and functionality including addition of joystick for adjusting focus points, dual SD card

        No idea sorry. Just aware that Monday should be a good shopping day.

        Do you really need the 42MP? If not then this camera is equal or better in almost every other aspect

          I am planning a move from Canon 60D. I just considered a7r3 as a friend of mine has it and is pretty happy. Never researched this. I'll look into this model to see if it meets my needs. Thanks for the heads up.

            @lookingForCheapDeal: I have both and my A73 has actually become my main camera (more manageable resolution/file size, better AF) I only really use A7R3 when I need to use crop lens/mode so I still have enough resolution to work with.. although generally should use FF lens on FF camera (otherwise what's the point). However, if I was purely using it for photo, I'd rather stick with Canon. The 5DIV to me has the best colour profile and not to mention more affordable lens selections. You sort of have to spend a bit more post-editing with Sony photos and spend more money on lenses.

              @John: I shoot a fair bit of video and using a GH5 and would love full frame. Think Sony is the next best for video though hmnm
