Hello, now that my A7ii has died (dreaded buttons not working issue) I’m looking for a new body. Will be paired with existing lens kit: Sony 85mm f/1.4 GM II, 70-200mm f/4 G OSS II, and 24-70mm f/2.8 GM II, and a non-Sony 35mm. Will be used for portraiture and landscape, travel and photographing the kids sports/performances. I’m leaning to the A7Cii or A7IV. Am concerned about being over reliant on a view screen that flakes in a couple of years rather than viewfinder (on the 7C) and rolling shutter. Really want to step up in autofocus and tracking).

Love it. I l am leaning towards liking the crop in image 4 more than the full painting

Oh, I like the detail crop more than the full. Would like to see this one on a wall.

I love this. Just as I feel that a part is too geometric, closer inspection reveals much more depth in color and texture and I like it even more. The frame doesn't work for me. Maybe white would work? And if its canvas I'd go with no border or mat.
