The impossible comparison: New Fuji X-T5 vs future imaginary Sony A7000

Share

I know I am crazy to even attempt to write such a clickbait post. But I still hope Sony managers are hearing me (and you) out. I strongly believe there is a big market for a Sony A7000. it could be a $1999 mini A1 for the masses!

Today Fuji announced the new X-T5 (BHphoto, Amazon). First I am going to the key specs of the Fuji and than to the imaginary A7000:

X-T5:

  • 40MP sensor
  • 3.69 million EVF
  • 4k60p
  • $1,699

The A7000 could offer the A1 controls and speed for a fraction of the price. Here my wishlist specs:

  • 33+ MP sensor (for native 8K uncropped video)
  • 9,45 million dot EVF
  • native 8k uncropped 60p video
  • same A7rV 4 way articulating screen
  • Price $1,999

I am sure this A7000 would sell instantly well, but I guess Sony is afraid it would cannibalize the FX and Full Frame series sales?

Would you buy the 8k, 33Mp A7000 for $1,999?
