Canon eos r3 vs sony a9 ii?

Both are full frame mirrorless cameras with in-body stabilisation and nearly identical resolution: 24.2 megapixels on the Sony a9 II and 24.1 on the Canon EOS R3. The real difference is the lens system you buy into. The a9 II takes Sony E lenses, and the R3 takes Canon RF lenses. This site doesn't rank their speed or autofocus, so I'd choose based on which lens range you want.

For a general kit on either body, these are sensible starting points:

• Sony FE 24-70mm f/2.8 GM II (a9 II)
• Sony FE 70-200mm f/2.8 GM OSS II (a9 II)
• Canon RF 24-70mm f/2.8L IS USM (R3)
• Canon RF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM (R3)

Full frame is the reference size, so these framings match on either body. If you're still deciding on sensor size, see sensor sizes.
