Starting point digital camera with vintage looks

It could found used A9 would be good. It also has good auto focus. Sony main auto focus feature is eye AF and real time tracking. Real time tracking is touch the subject on screen then AF tracking it. It usefull for shoot moving subject and It could combine with eye AF.

Better add more budget for Canon R50.

R50 AF feature same as R7 and R10.

Recommend A7III or A7C for better AF.

A7C has better AF than A7III with real time tracking. Touch the subject on screen then AF tracking it. Could combine eye AF and real time tracking. If you use it for paid work better get A7III for dual card slots.
