Great camera, just way overpriced.

There are 3 really great cameras out there that are vying for the best all around...the R3, A1 and Z9. The latter two have two advantages...first and foremost they have a large resolution advantage which for some kinds of shooting like wildlife, makes the R3 almost irrelevant. Second is price...the other cameras are less expensive. There is no reason the R3 should cost more than the others either new or used imo...and we are rapidly heading that way. I've seen big discounts on new ones and in the used market, all three cameras are now well below $5k. I've been tempted to try the R3 but the price never seemed to make sense to me. I guess I'm holding out for the R5ii which should be here later this spring. I like the smaller form factor.
