>>3370687The sony is lighter and higher image quality in every respect compared to the canon or sony, it also has better sample variation. Prices in europe are all within €300 of each other, I'd happily pay a little more for a better lens.
And sony didn't claim they were best seller. Cipa released sales figures and showed sony to be in the lead for full frame sales.
And there's no stock in the usa as the dollar is too volatile, $3000 today could easily third in value within 12 months, whereas the indian rupee for example may double in value in that time, so it makes more sense for sony, or canon, to prioritise india, they are a more important market.
