Same as ours in N.Z. very shy, takes awhile to get consistent sharp image's especially flying.

Yes mabye the A1 is better, but the price. The same the lens, when you bay the prime 600 is better but i will not pay 11 k euro. For a hobby will i update the A7R3. The have not focus on eye off birds and faster systeem for a good price. Now i have the A6600 for backup for holyday.

What I missed a great deal with testing the a7R5 (compared to my a9) was the missing capability of a shutter sound in electronic shutter mode. It’s just not present there, is this the same with the a7IV?

Yes there is a shutter sound on the A7IV. Are you sure there isn't one on the A7RV I'd be surprised? I've never used one so can't be sure.

Thanks for this! I’ve been looking at a 2nd camera for a while, mostly for stills and could really benefit from the bird eye af (that I do not have on my a9) 👍

I saw one of them up close & personal a while ago. There was a flock of silvereyes picking aphids off my roses, so I went outside to have a look. There was a tiny little brown / white / black spotty bird sitting there right in front of me. It was so minute, perfect & full of itself. We looked into each other's eyes for a minute & it darted off with its silvereye friends. A magic moment. Then I had to look it up. I'd heard about pardalotes, but never seen one. You live & learn, I guess.
