p.2 #1Cameralabs review of the Sony A7/r - silly comparison to 5d3 for AF.
I agree that the reviewer should have clarified the major differences in how AF is working between the two cameras. On the eve of the A7/r announcement the specs were leaked in French. I was commenting on the SAR site and said that it only did 1.5 and 2.5FPS with continuous AF. Everyone jumped on me and said "oh but it does 4-5 FPS". Surely it does that but I for one don't even see a use case for high FPS with no AF. Maybe some people have a use for it but I'm not sure what it would be really? My 1DX does 14FPS without AF. The day I opened the box I made sure that setting was disabled and not accessible (which it isn't anyways by default).

I'm waiting for Scott, Fred, and a host of other FMers to pop a tilt shift on this baby and post their results. Those are the reviews I'm waiting for.... for wildlife and kid action, I'll always reach for the 5DIII
