The Sony a7 IV is rumored to be equipped with a 30MP image sensor, stepping up from the Sony a7 III‘s 24MP. Moreover, the Sony a7 IV is expected to be price at $2,499 USD, exactly the same as the Canon EOS R6, and it is likely to be a camera in the price range one level higher than the $2,000 class Nikon Z6 II and Panasonic S5.
