Leica SL3-P vs Sony a7R VI

The Leica SL3-P 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 more resolution, for cropping and big prints (66.8 against 44 MP) and more lenses made for it in this guide (278 against 158). On these specs the Leica SL3-P has no clear advantage: choose it if the price, the handling or a lens you own decides it. If you already own L-Mount or Sony E lenses, the camera on that mount saves you buying them again.
