FX3 is lethal for photos
If you think that's lethal, then I think you would be incredibly blown away by an actual photo (or even a more standard hybrid) Sony camera. The FX3 works but is clunky from an ergonomics perspective and 12MP is suitable for social but no ability to crop/reframe in post is tough. You should rent an

Z6iii in a A7V World
The A7V looks extremely overpriced for anyone not already heavily entrenched in the Sony system. You can buy a used/refurb Z8 for a similar price (less, actually, if you go used), and from a feature/performance standpoint, the Z8 directly competes with the A1II which at the moment costs $3,500 USD m

New Tamron 70-180mm lens distortion HELP
Sony a7v sensor readout is about 62ms and my canon r7 is about 35ms. Rolling shutter shows up about 10%of my shots, so yeah it’s got to be from the read speed. Go mechanical or buy a faster readout camera. Sony a9iii for 0 second read out but anything around 10ms is probably good for this scenario.
