Asks if the a7CR is the ultimate all-in-one camera; suggests it might be.

Wishes the screen tilted in line with the body like the a7R V, which would make it ideal for street.
screen tilt not side-articulating

Just ordered the a7CR; expects it to be a great travel camera.

Truly an amazing camera; loves the shutter and is satisfied with buffer using UHS-II card.
YouTube comment on Tony & Chelsea NorthrupCommunity
Excited about small, light but powerful camera; a good fit for the commenter.
YouTube comment on Jared PolinCommunity
Hoped for the A7RV's multi-angle screen; pricing lower than expected.
no multi-angle screen
YouTube comment on Jared PolinCommunity
Says equivalent lens prices should be considered; the price gap is small.
YouTube comment on Tony & Chelsea NorthrupCommunity
Notes a7RC has one non-CFexpress card slot; questions FPS and buffer for sports.
single slot, slower buffer for sports/wildlife
YouTube comment on Jared PolinCommunity
Owns an a7C and considers the a7CR a sensible choice for existing Sony lenses.
YouTube comment on Tony & Chelsea NorthrupCommunity
Asks whether a7C R is worth it over a7RV; raises questions on shutter noise, handling and dual slots.
shutter may be louder
YouTube comment on Jared PolinCommunity
Used a7CR at about $2000 is a no-brainer; 61MP crop ability and pixel shift praised.
