Phillip, quite weird colors, the Landscape profile is like turning vibrance and saturation both to +50, combined to 6000K & +24 WB makes colors weird.
Okay, I overdid it, for my own images I never use this profile. Second attempt, but I would be surprised if you liked the colors this time.

And yes, I really struggle with A7/A7r images. These cameras are like "shiny plastic or dull", and I find it hard to produce realism. Looking images in A7/A7r Image thread it seems I'm not alone with this issue. But there has also been good neutral realistic images, so cameras are capable of delivering. Lightroom standard profiles give quite weird images, and profiling at shooting location improves situation, but won't solve issues completely. Hopefully I'll learn before 2014 shooting season really starts.
I haven't used the 5dII a lot but I think the files needed less adjustments.
Colors are important to me, but I don't care too much about color accuracy. I edit on the cheapest (140€) non TN panel I could find.
I always found it your 5dII images stood out because of their realism.

I may have to go back to Apple Aperture, just checked Crete 5DmkII images and it's really hard to make them look good even I shoot only with ZE 2/135. 5DmkII with Apple Aperture is really easy on post processing; adjust black level and WB and you are done - I have rarely ever done anything else. Now I tried million different things in Lightroom and could not make images look good. Would feel "safer" with Lightroom, as I'm not sure will Apple Aperture be there 5 years from now, and converting image library from program to another is always enormous job.

Maybe you could post Aperture Images and we will try to replicate your results in LR.
