$2700 is a steal for this camera! It is a little surprising that the discount is so steep, but Adorama is legit as they come, so if this camera makes sense for you and your work, don't hesitate.
$3898 is tough to spend in this economy. Sony dropped the ball in the pricing.

I wonder what's going on here. We have seen special EDU pricing on the a7R V several times this year and it keeps getting cheaper. Is Sony trying to tell us something about their next gen of cameras and trying to make a push to sell as many of these as possible?

Maybe they think most pros are going to go for the A9iii with the global shutter?? Don't know though, this did a fantastic deal

Are there codes for this like for the other deals or how does that work ?

it looks like this site requires an account sign in and it isn't a code like the buydig deal.

If the a7r v sells for $3800, I would rather go with the nikon z8, it's getting camera of the year prize everywhere, I think this is why Sony is willing to give discount for the a7r v because they could recycle the old 60mp sensor from the a7r iv, so it doesn't cost them that much to sell at discounted priced, just a bummer for who paid full price for it.

Is there anyway to get edu pricing without knowing anyone that has an edu account? :/

Because the Sony BF prices are really underwhelming. So now their sale figures are trending below expectations, and they have to cut prices further. They should have done it earlier in the first place. This is only just a fair price when you consider that you can get A7R4 with the same sensor for $2.5k or less a couple of years ago.

This is tempting to dump the r3 for the r5.

This is why I tell people it's silly to disparage competing products or brands. Competition drives prices lower and puts more pressure on manufacturers to innovate. Great price. TU

Is it a steal just because sony put an outrageous msrp to begin with?
