Sony a7r iii vs sony a9?

The a7R III is the detail camera. It has 42.4 megapixels, so it suits landscapes, studio work, and anything you want to crop or print large. The a9 is the action camera. It has 24.2 megapixels but is built for fast subjects, and it's now a used bargain. Both are full frame, have in-body stabilisation, and take Sony E lenses, so one lens collection serves either body.

For the a7R III, I'd start with the Sony FE 24-70mm f/2.8 GM II and the Sony FE 16-35mm f/2.8 GM II. For the a9, the Sony FE 200-600mm f/5.6-6.3 G OSS gives reach for sport. If you want the newest sports body, the Sony a9 III is the first full-frame camera here with a global shutter, so no rolling-shutter distortion.
