Re: Canon R7 vs Canon 90D

R7 has a better AF so that would be my choice, I have a 90D and the sharp images hit rate is not impressive. Please note that both have the same sensor which is prone to high noise levels even at low ISO. The R7 mark II, which should have a new and better stacked sensor, is expected in 2025.

Re: Gando AFB

I'm a numbers man, haven't seen anything on base so would be happy with anything pretty much.
