Thank for your comment. I did not explane myself well. Most online reviews hails the A7R as the landscape camera. I'm a landscape/ night archtecaulal shooter. Long exposure too. I bought the R first and it was a lemon. I returned it for the A7 and went on vacation I needed a Camea. Love the images very much. I get home and the newly MII IS ON THE SHELF. So I treaded it for the newer model. I read some online reviews and I find about this AA filter which blurs the images for Morie. And the A7R has no AA filter so now I think the image are better because it has no AA FILTER.That why I want mine removed so I can have a landscape camera. Will my camera be a 24 mp A7R if I get the filter removed. So I'm looking online for images comparisons. Any thought
In what way your A7r a lemon?
It's probably the best thing out there at the moment for landscape photography - the image quality of the D800e, and almost that of the D810 (no ISO 64 option) but with a better lens selection. The only exception is for star trails - Sony's lossy RAW format is terrible and can cause aliasing artifacts, AA filter or not. It really defeats the purpose of having a RAW format in the first place -if you're that concerned about file size, you shoot a downsized format or JPEG.
I'm in two minds about AA filters for landscape photography. For many scenes, their removal certainly does improve sharpness and contrast. On the other hand, you can sometimes get moire patterns in natural objects, especially grass, waves and ripples in water - and, for combined landscape and wildlife trips, fur.
