Leica M EV1 vs Sony a7R VI

The Leica M EV1 and the Sony a7R VI side by side, computed from this guide's catalogue.

Which to pick

Pick the Sony a7R VI if you want stabilisation in the body, which steadies every lens and more lenses made for it in this guide (278 against 100). On these specs the Leica M EV1 has no clear advantage: choose it if the price, the handling or a lens you own decides it. If you already own Leica M or Sony E lenses, the camera on that mount saves you buying them again.
