The have been plenty of rumors for years now about high res Canon and Sony sensors. With the given pixel density on Smartphones and incredible image quality at low ISO on these devices the question arises when will we see the high end FF Sony Sensor and what festers will the camera have.
The Alpha One is so close to the A7r IV and V that it's hard for me to understand why anyone would need both in a camera lineup except for a bit of savings on the cheaper A7R IV.
50 or 60 MP are basically the same and the AF on even my trusty A7R IV is lighting fast e.g. with the outstanding 70 .. 200 f/2.0 Macro - I have been able to shoot in very dim situations with amazing acquisition speed at ISO 6400 without a single missed shot. In other words AF has become really reliable and the A7R V is even better let alone the Alpha One.
the only thing remaining is medium format pixel count in a half weight and 2/3 size package with a much better lens availability.
What would you like to see in a high res medium format killer and what would you be willing to pay for a smaller and higher GFX 100 II that#äs retailing for just $ 7500 - I guess the Alpha One R would be a bit more affordable and even in case it would have the same price I already own the lenses that easily manage 100 MP
What are your thoughts?

so can only take everything with a grain of salt.
