I would compare a7III + 24-105/f4 with X-H1 + 18-55/f2.8-4, at least until Fuji comes out with the 16-80/f4. You are also comparing two different formats (APS-C vs FF), each comes with its own set of advantages and disadvantages.

I own A7rIII and 24-105 as well as X-H1, the following is my personal opinion.

X-H1 handles much better than Sony. Sony seems to have higher DR and better high ISO handling. Fuji has focus stacking (important for macro and landscape), Sony doesn't. I prefer the Fuji system unless I need >24mp resolution. Also if you want to dabble in street photography, you could add later an X-Pro2 to your setup.

You are probably fine choosing either system, but I know of many photographers who could not live with Sony ergonomics, though Sony cameras have improved considerably with the Mark III series.

You mean focus bracketing, not in camera focus stacking, correct?
