R5 is great/better choice.

A1 to replace your current Sony bodies.

On the used market the those bodies are worth about 1/2 what the A1 will cost. And let's be honest, while the A1 has some nice features, they won't help most people. But things like better IBIS will.

And as he said about Sony, "I don't trust it in 100%.".

So why pay almost $3000 more for a camera that in the long run won't help much? Think about what you can get extra for $3000. And how big of deal would it be if he drops a $6500 camera and it breaks? $3800 is bad enough.

If you shoot birds here is a respected Pro who switched from the A9ii to the R5. He has some great tips. Hs's a superb bird photographer.  His tips should help in your quest.
