I'm no sports photographer, but the idea of going through post production with some thousands of pictures (shot in RAW only) from an invent is not very attractive to me - even if I had to choose the "decisive" moment out of 50 shots from one situation, then the next 30 and so on. Although the camera shoots a fast series, I'm not that fast to decide. If I could, I just need to push the trigger at the right moment...
So, I doubt this machine will produce Terabyte of RAWs in a typcial scenario - or go for RAW + JPG, being the RAW the insurance to correct blown highlights.
And between 8bit JPG and 12bit RAW still is a bigger difference than between 12 or 14 bit RAW. I think I will see the α9 as an action camera. There will be also a successor for the α7RII and then we can talk again about resolution and 14 bit. What do you think?
