how about you show me all the BIF and action photographers using the A7 cameras you know the vast multitude that have sold their Canon gear and are now producing amazing work with the A7 how about your own work you do have real world experience shooting these cameras right.

And do you have experience shooting on Sony?

yes

By the way, I used to have a 1D III and I can tell you that the A7III AF is much better if this is just what you know and are used to.

the 1Dlll AF was flawed when it was released I would think most cameras made today are more accurate then the 1DIII it did have wonderful colors I still have mine BTW. We are comparing modern AF systems and the current A7 system is very good just not as good as the A9 when you get to that last 10% of performance just like the D850 compared to the D5 and the 5DMKIV gets about 95% of the 1DX you would notice it if using TC’s. Not sure why this is so hard to believe do you really think DPR and other reviewers push these systems that hard.

So DPR test both the A9 and A7 tracking someone riding a bike and that’s supposed to be hard if that’s your benchmark then yes the A7 is as good as the A9
