This year we saw some really outstanding cameras come to market. In fact, somehow, 2025 was even more packed than last year.

Excuse me, what?

Another day, another Sony a7 V dynamic range update. Our initial speculation has proven correct, and the new a7 V is employing Dual Gain Output (DGO) to achieve outstanding dynamic range when using its mechanical shutter at base and low ISO settings. Further, building upon research by Adam Horshack, William "Bill" Claff of the excellent Photons to Photos has revised his a7 V testing to indicate that the camera is not using baked-in noise reduction with its RAW files. What initially appeared to be evidence of noise reduction is, in fact, DGO.

After popular YouTuber Kai Wong reviewed the a7 V last week and mentioned potential issues with third-party lenses, concerns about whether the a7 V is taking a different approach to E-mount's famous openness spread like wildfire. However, while there is always the chance that certain lenses, particularly third-party ones, may have compatibility issues with new cameras, there is no reason to believe that the Sony a7 V represents any departure from Sony's longstanding view toward third-party optics.

As exciting as the latest and greatest cameras are, the best-selling models are, by and large, entry-level cameras with older, worse technology. Photographers love to talk about cutting-edge flagship cameras, but when it comes to consumer spending habits, entry-level interchangeable-lens cameras rule the day, as BCN+R's latest data from Japan shows.
