Best praise vs top criticism for Sony a7R V
“A7RV, absolutely no question about it. If you get in any situation where you might be shooting a burst, the A7CR has an extremely limited buffer. Plus it will handle much better with the larger telephoto lenses.”
“Hobbyist and limited budget does not equal a7rv and GM lenses lol. If you’re pretty new to photography look towards the APSC bodies (a6400 and a6700) for now and grab some nice zooms if you don’t know what focal length you like most (sigma 18-50 and Sony 70-350 are great). All those combined is still less than the a7rv body, with even enough leftover for a decent prime.”
