Sony Japan published a statement stating that the new Sony a7 IV is in short supply due to the unprecedented demand. That means you may not get your cameras on time.

Press Release:

Thank you for your continued patronage of Sony products.

We have received orders for the digital single-lens camera “α7 IV” (ILCE-7M4), which we started accepting orders from December 7, 2021, far exceeding our expectations, and it will take time to deliver the product. There is a possibility that you will receive.
