Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Sony A7 is significantly lighter (286g ) than the Nikon Z6 III which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Also keep in mind that body weight is not the only deciding factor when comparing two interchangeable camera bodies, you also have to take into account the lenses that you will be using with these bodies. Since both Sony A7 and Nikon Z6 III have the same Full frame sized sensor, their lenses for a similar focal length and aperture will be similar in size and weight.

Both the A7 and the Z6 Mark III have weather sealings in their bodies, making them resistant to water and dust.
