Although I haven’t pre-ordered, I’m leaning towards doing so. If I don’t, it’s most likely wanting to get more feedback before biting the bullet.

Although it’s great to see more options coming out, this isn’t one that’s going to sway my decision. I don’t normally pre-order but have been tempted by the current deals for the M5 (e.g. enhanced trade-in) and already have M lenses - so this would be an affordable way of upgrading my secondary camera, which is something I feel would be hugely beneficial to me.

In the UK, the A6500 is going to be £1500 for the body and it would be a new ecosystem, which means it wouldn’t quite so affordable! In terms of price, it’s more than I want to spend on a secondary camera and makes it a purchase that (sadly) would be later, rather than sooner, whereas I could do with the upgrade now.
