Might have as much as $1600, but the more saved the better. Also need a lens.

Sony A7r - $434 (well used condition) Sony A7r II - $949 (like new condition) Sony A7r III - $1299 (excellent condition)

Looking at mpb.com. Are the features and improvements worth it for each iteration?

I enjoy urban/street night photography, urban decay, landscapes, and want to get in to portraiture.

EDIT: I have also, and would still, consider a Panasonic LUMIX S5, or a Fujifilm X-T5.

    When you say tone it’s worth mentioning that you’re probably talking about straight out of the camera JPEGs. I’ve used Nikon, Sony, and Fuji bodies over the years and their RAWs all look very comparable. I share your opinion on Sony’s straight out of the camera JPEGs, even if you and I might be outliers here. I find them to be fairly accurate/representative of the real world. My D40/D5300 were pretty accurate, but the Z6II was a bit warm (not that that’s unpleasant). Fuji is a bit too stylized, but was a bit more real world IME.

    Do you care about AF performance? If yes, the A7III and A7III are where I would start. If not, walk back to the A7II/A7RII. I would personally skip the A7R as it lacks IBIS.

    But also, what do you not like about your canon?
