It's probably just down to the AF performance of the body, a converted LA-EA4 on an A7 III is going to be worse than an LA-EA5 on an A7 IV in the same way any other lens will be. The whole point of the converted LA-EA4 is that you can use it on the older bodies, so if you get a newer one then of course just get the 5 and save yourself the effort of doing the conversion. There is one exception to this, the 4 gets you 80% AF point coverage with the 500mm mirror lens where as the 5 only has the centre point. Very niche, but maybe worth mentioning.
