Of course it didn\'t require a thread from me, this would be a pretty empty forum if people only posted things deemed required reading.
Yes, there are already reviews and threads out there, I guess the internet only needs one review per camera and any other perspective is superfluous. My only goal was to add one more data point, especially for people considering the jump from Nikon, and I\'m glad to see many people have found that helpful.
I like reviews. We all do. But this whole I am breaking up with one because the other is better been is often a backhanded slag towards one manufacturer or another. Again, I have no horse in this race and am happy with the system for my style of shooting. Then, I don\'t shoot weddings. So your \'review\' as you so generously call it, does not relate to me or my style. Which goes back to one of my posts as to why those type of posts are limited in their usefulness as everyone has different skill levels, needs, etc. I would never choose this system for action or nature. It is not there yet. But I already was aware and have a system for that. I don\'t say Sony is not not good enoug because frankly it is for my other shooting for travel, architecture,street, etc. and the AF is plenty useful for those and some action.
Let\'s agree to disagree. I look forward to many more of your incredibly useful, technical, and informative \'reviews\' the next time you contemplate changing systems.
I don\'t know, I have been using my A7r with all of my MF Leica R, Leica M WATE, and Minolta CLE MC 40mm f2 M-Rokkor lens for Nature and Landscape work for the last 13 months (the WATE is a new addition), but I have not been using this set-up for Wildlife to this point. On the other hand, my last FF camera that I purchased was my Leica R8 purchased in 1988. That camera and my Leica R lenses did not offer AF and I used that camera and lenses for wildlife shooting as well though not for fast moving subjects like birds in flight.
