I took my D-100 out last Sunday, I use it when I am 4x4ing as it is not too 
important, I had forgotten about the 3 shot buffer in raw ;-)

Good.. then I can buy an A7R for $50.....new, old stock.....

Cameras never outgrow the specific application for which they are bought.
Our expectations, or specs may change, but the camera is always what it was, 
new.  I am a believer ( like Nathan) in last years' technology, post 
depreciation, post fashion consciousness, past hipster madness.  I don't 
make my living off this stuff, so even my D1x ($250 when I got it about 3 
years ago) is a good camera for me.  $7K????? not in my lifetime....

Sony will have exited the camera business within the next couple of years.
