Digitalcameraworld compared the Image Quality of the last generation Sony A7rV cameras and concludes:
Evidently improvements in sensor tech – at least in terms of core stills image quality – have been slowing in recent years. Instead, we now see the likes of Sony marketing other features, like the speed of a sensor’s readout, and its corresponding impact on burst shooting speed and video capture performance.
I see no surprise in this: Focus has been on offering better video quality, autofocus and frame speed, more “vlogger” features and so forth. Still, I believe Image Quality major improvements are still possible! I see a lot of Sony patents around “foveon” alike sensor that could give quite a big bump in terms of resolution and dynamic range. And there might be some other tech on the horizon that we haven’t spoken about it yet!
