Canon 6D or Sony A7(r) for astrophotography?

I was all set to purchase a Canon 6D before Christmas, until I started reading about the Sony A7. At first I shrugged it off as I was too heavily invested in Canon lenses, however as I found out the AF will still work with a Metabones adapter mounted on the Sony. I've read mixed reports though about the AF, with most saying it's slower on the Sony then its native body?

My main interests are landscapes and astrophotography (wide-field and dso). It seems the Astro community is heavily biased towards Canon, e.g. light pollution filters, BackyardEOS, attachments etc...

Just wondering if anyone has gone through a similar process and what their thoughts are ?
