Our Verdict

Sony α7 IV

Nikon Z 6III

The Nikon Z 6III is better overall than the Sony α7 IV, though they're both top dogs in the class of hybrid full-frame mirrorless cameras. While the Sony has a more reliable autofocus system and a more established lens ecosystem, the Nikon offers better video specs, faster burst shooting, significantly less rolling shutter distortion, better ergonomics, and a higher-resolution EVF. Having said that, the Sony does have a higher-resolution sensor, so you may still prefer it for landscapes and other kinds of photography.
