I will no longer buy ANY camera with an AA filter. That is IT!
Well, I got the A7r2, and its pretty nice. There is no comparison of this Sony system to the Canon (5Dmark2 or 3).
The Canon mechanically blows it away in too many areas I see a deal breaker if someone had to use just one system.
For starters and what looks to be impossible is being able to focus through the view finder and then previewing on the Monitor. This cannot happen unless you are in the ALL on Auto mode, which kills the battery much faster. If you put it in VF mode, you cannot preview in the Monitor without digging in menus to change it. What a shame.
***Update...this was premature, as there are custom settings that DID eventually get this to work. My first try at the settings wasn't as fruitful. Things are looking better.
Its dam small, so unless you are carefull, you will hit some buttons holding it. Must use caution! But, I also like the size.
The construction is not as robust as the Canon. The card door, the feel of the areas my fingers rest, particularly my middle finger and such can feel flex just inside towards the lens off the shutter button area.
The top plate on the Canon is aerodynamic, which makes it less prone to catching on something. Sony has a few protruding dails, but not a big deal.
Number of lag areas in working with the camera, to shoot and preview. Lag in writing the files. Wish it had a Low resolution RAW mode.
So far my observations.
But, the reason I got it is for the sharpness, and this DOES blow the Canon away in Image quality. I was shocked at the level of shadow detail is retained when boosting it up. The overall sharpness of the images to a 5Dm3 is just brutal. I'm sure its a combo of the resolution with the lack of AA.
I did notice some "ghosting on edges or contrast points using the Metabones adapter with a Canon 24-7o L I USM lens. Not sure what that was.
No more cameras with AA for me. Took me a while to come around and get this camera, I know...since the A99II and others will release soon. But I just found it the right time for me.
