I’m going through the same “agony,” even though this is a classic first world problem. I don’t print more than 20″ (unless I decide to spend $4,650 and get the new Epson 24″ super printer), am a mostly tripod based person, and continue to be amazed with the quality of the files from the A7R3. I’m even one of those people who regularly uses the pixel shift feature. I have a excellent set of lenses, mostly GM and Batis so the extra MP don’t worry me. I have only the R3, so for some upcoming major travel, I’d like to have a backup body. I’ve even considered getting another R3 since the prices have fallen but I’m a sucker for megapixels and new technology. I realize this is solely my decision and no one can really advise me but it’s a nice problem to have. I’ve read and watched videos so do not suffer from lack of information. We’ll see…

Your friend and mine, Charlie Cramer is still on Sierra and has started considering the change to High Sierra!

Lloyd Chambers wrote an excellent piece on the potential problems with OSX Catalina.

Lloyd is often spot on with his aggressive criticisms of Apple hardware and software even if he comes off as a bit strident. I’ve never quite understood the folks who update software the moment it’s available eg iOS 13. They seem to be asking for problems and rarely need the alleged improvements. But, to each his own.
I agree with and always do what Larry Angier sugests about using a spare drive, cloning the system and running that until one is happy that things like printers and older software work in a satisfactory fashion.

in reply to: advice about Mojave upgrade #8119Re: advice about Mojave upgradeReply #4 on: September 21, 2019 at 2:30 pmRelated question…If I purchase a new machine with Catalina in the near future, will I be able to use the installer to “downgrade” that machine to Mojave?
in reply to: advice about Mojave upgrade #8103Re: advice about Mojave upgradeReply #5 on: September 20, 2019 at 5:43 pmThanks Jeremy and Kevin for your prompt and helpful replies. I’m still pondering whether to go ahead with Mojave. It’s likely I will since many of my photo friends have upgraded without problems. However, caution is always indicated in these matters.
