At $5K, a7rvi is a pass for my personally. Big win for the BIF guys, but tbh Sony bodies met all of my needs with the a7rIII. Resolution bump with a7rIV/a7cr was a welcome upgrade. But I haven't personally felt like the benefits of the MKV and now MKVI bodies offer anything compelling that would really elevate the way I shoot.
If it has the stackable sensor, then I doubt that the noise will be better, more likely worse.
I wonder if a lot of people will be buying the a7rV after the announcements. It's on sale for $3300 and would be a much better value for IQ.

Interesting and a step backwards if true.
As an "R" series body, really feel that Sony needs to bring something to table from an IMAGE QUALITY perspective. RGB sensor? 16 bit raws? Feel like they've lost the plot here in a lot of ways.
