It's been this price multiple times previously, though still a good deal.

There's no need to jump on this at this price unless you really want an a7iii and have access to a EDU account.

Personally I shoot on this camera like a ton of other SD users and love it. It's a great full frame camera and keeps professional work cheap using something like Tamron glass. I highly recommend it for anyone looking to get more seriously into photography, but not totally break the bank on your budget getting setup.

Thumbs up from me. 👍👍👍

Photography is just as much about technique and knowledge as it is about the hardware.
The difference is modern smartphones remove the need for proper knowledge and technique to produce fairly nice photos.
Too many people think buying an expensive camera will make them take better pictures. It wont. You as a person have to be able to use the camera effectively.
All else equal an unskilled individual will take substantially better pictures on a phone.

And a casual driver will drive much better in a Toyota Camry than a Formula One car, lol.

Quote from LeviathanUltima :
Given the a7r iv is 700 more, I think it is worth the cost for the extra features. What do you guys think?
Most people who have owned both, say the A7R III has a cleaner sensor with better dynamic range. I would probably save the money and put it towards the 55 F/1.8

I purchased this from Adorama the last time it went on sale for $1700, just about 3 weeks ago. Shot them an email asking about price protection and they're refunding me the difference! Thanks OP!
