Specs and speculation ,this A7riii looks the goods to me.A better proposition than the Nikon D850(for what i'd use it for).A lot of good features,i wonder if its got a radiator?
I am speaking only about pixel shift, no other features on this camera.
The thing that I can tell you, pure and simple, is that pixel shift as done by Pentax (and it is stated in the article that Sony does it the same way) is completely useless for any part of the image that moves in any of the frames that are captured. You either get artifacts there or you have to mask in a single image for that part of the image. I just think if there is a half second pause between images it is less likely that they will be combinable in any real sense. This would be more useable in the studio for completely stationary subjects.
As to the camera itself, it will be fine. It won't be perfect for everyone (mainly due to price), but I think it will sell well.
