CineD tested the Sony A7rVI: Highest DR ever tested (with a caveat) and promising prospects for the A7sIV :)

CineD tested the Sony A7rVI and wrote this:

Sony managed to create a very attractive package with the a7R VI – rolling shutter values with or without the dual gain mode are very manageable, and the dynamic range results show the power of dual gain “ON” – we get up to 14 stops at SNR = 2! The highest result we’ve measured so far!

Is the Sony A7rVI a Sony A1II killer? Nope…but most people will now buy the A7rVI instead of the A1II

Now that we have seen the Sony A7rVI , it’s clear this camera is not a Sony A1II killer for one major reason: the readout speed is 4–5 times slower than on the Sony A1II.

I am not an engineer, but I wonder why Sony decided to use a fully stacked sensor — a technology known for enabling extremely fast readout speeds — and then not exploit its full potential. Maybe some skilled SAR readers can explain the reason behind this choice?
