Re: 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.

I shoot wildlife with the R3 and it does a great job at it.

Seems R3 works great for those who really use it. And does not work for Richard who only talks about it.

I only talk about it because I shoot a lot of wildlife and BIF, and the resolution difference matters...a lot. I'm sure the R3 does work great for those who use it, but for most wildlife shooters, the Z9 and A1 are just all around better...especially because they have been lower priced in the real world. With big discounts available on both if you know where to look..and certainly in the used market. It's not that I'm a sony or nikon fan only as I shoot with an r5 and r6 along with a suite of canon lenses out to 600mm...
