I understand as I believe is to be correct the R7 is a replacement for the 7DMark II?
I moved from the 7DII to the R7. The video below explains why the R7 is not a "replacement." There is no battery grip, and it lacks some of the "pro" features of the 7DII. The price is fantastic, though, and that's why I bought it.
I'm reaching out here to determine if the R7 is in fact adequate enough for photographing fast moving objects in terms of tracking and autofocus.
Yes, the R7's AF system is fantastic for wildlife. It requires some specific settings to reach its top performance, and my understanding is that the R6II's AF system is better, but you can't beat the R7 at its price point.

Thanks Steven - but the R7's autofocus in theory shouldn't be be at the same level as an R5 correct?
I think the price of the R7 is well fitted - would be nice to have an R5, I rather spend the extra savings on a telephoto lens.
As Duade Paton explains in that video, the R7's sensor readout speed is much slower than the R5, which has an impact on AF performance. But as someone who owned the 7DII and didn't want to spend $$$ on an R5, the R7 is unbelievably good.
