I know there are many differences between the 5D Mark IV and the A7R IV. I think most would say the A7R IV is in another class in terms of performance. However, according to the website imaging-resource the 5Dmark IV is considerbly faster at autofocus than the A7RIV. I was very suprised and a little suspicious...does anyone have experience with either of these cameras and can verify that the 5DIV autofocus is lightning fast?

Here's where I fouind the stats for autofocus on both cameras:

Well the two cameras were tested with different lenses, the Canon with an f 1.8 lens and the Sony with an f2.8 lens so some of the difference is due to that. But in general in my hands, the 5dIV is indeed incredibly fast autofocus.
Not surprising
