Coincidentally, yesterday I was out shooting and wished there's a high performance APSc camera, and today I read the A6700 review.
I shoot with the A7r.3 and usually crop very heavily for wildlife photography. So I was wondering if Sony would make a high perf APSc for wildlife and sports for the extra reach with the megapixel density to boot? I seriously don't see myself or many others buying the A1 just to use crop mode (as a hobby enthusiast). Some heavily cropped samples below.

Another tiny swallow, could be a male.
Not sure what species this is. Hahahaha
The nutty professor! Hahahaha
What I hope to see is boost over the current A6700:
1) 16fps mech / 25fps ES
2) Faster flash sync of 1/250
3) Faster readout speed at 8ms
4) Bigger buffer and faster write times
5) Hybrid Type A and SDXC UHS-ii card slot. Don't mind it being just 1 card slot for APSc
6) A1 class AF tracking and speed
7) More slope-y shutter button for better ergo
8) Stacked sensor, 26MP is fine / 30MP even better
9) EVF 3.6 million dots at 0.78x mag equiv size
10) Max mech shutter speed 1/8000
11) Min shutter speed goes to 2mins
12) Video ability to shoot open gate at 400Mbps on the Type A card all-I frames
13) Micro HDMI output to external recorder for ProRes or BRAW recording
14) GPS sensor with on/off feature
15) Priced at USD$1999 body only
If Sony would produce such a camera, I am most glad to pick one up and the 200-600mm lens combo. Don't mind it being another 100g heavier than the A6700. Can this dream come true?
