The Sony a7RIV isn’t very old, but it is currently discounted at B&H Photo and Sony doesn’t really have a fixed release schedule so these leaked Sony a7RV specs could be real. Sony also refreshed the Sony a7RIV and a7RIII so the discount just might be to clear out the non-Sony a7RIVa and a7RIIIa cameras from inventory.
Sony’s rapid release schedule as of late is similar to when Sony first launched the a7 series of cameras and the lenses and bodies were being released very frequently so Sony might have decided now is the time to not hold anything back with Canon and to a lesser extent Nikon coming for Sony’s mirrorless crown.
