eug on Sony Alpha A6700 Mirrorless Camera (Body Only) $1699.15 + Delivery ($0 C&C/ in-Store) @ JB Hi-Fi

The video quality is also vastly superior on the A6700. More dynamic range, more colour depth, more framerates.

Dubious speculation commented on Apple MacBook Pro 14", M4 Chip $2255, M4 Pro $2945.80 Shipped @ Apple on Campus (E.g. Australian Education Union)
Will be really interesting to see how the M4 compares to the base M1 pro, both being quite similarly priced.
