There is a Sony a7R Price Drop at Amazon, bringing the a7R down to $1898.00. Often these types of rebates indicate that a new camera model is about to ship and indeed SonyAlphaRumors have has stated that an a7RII will be announced in May and will ship in June, and that the camera will have a 48mp sensor.
That makes it a particularly good time to pick up an a7R for a photographer looking to score a high-resolution sensor who might not need the added features of a second-generation system. Those working with manual focus lenses, capturing landscapes or starscapes or shooting architecture work would be perfect candidates for the Sony a7R price drop at Amazon.
