Is A7riii upgrade worth it just for focus?

[MLWolfe]

I absolutely love my A7rii for landscapes, and when eye focus works, it's amazing. However, when I'm shooting groups, action, etc, I've found getting focus to be very hit or miss, and it's driven me just about crazy. The only reason I want to upgrade is because of the reviews about improved focus.

 

If you've shot with both, is the focus really significantly improved? Is it worth the money?

 

I so well remember the raving reviews about the A7rii's focus tracking, even with adapted lenses. That hasn't been the case for me, even though I've loved it for so many things. Thanks!

Thank you for responding! Can you elaborate a little more? Is the focus not really improved all that much?

IDK I think the camera has enough focus points already. I really want it to improve on night-time shooting and LAE3 A-mount functions. Like unlocking all functions of the A-mount focus. It has a touch screen now oh wow..........but does it

 

A. Slove the star-eater problem that prevents me from upgrading?

 

B. Has RAW to boot?
