Sony A7R VI Ships With New Incompatible Battery, +15% Capacity

If you're planning to upgrade to the A7R VI and hoping your existing battery stock carries over, it won't. Sony has changed the contact positions, which means a clean break from your current spares. The 15% capacity bump is real and useful for long shoot days, but factor the cost of a fresh set of batteries into your upgrade budget. Worth knowing before you commit, not after you've already ordered the body.
