I skipped upgrading to the a7R3, so I might have missed out on something. . .
On both my a7R and a7R2, using manual focus lenses (such as Zeiss ZE, or other "dumb" lenses), these previous lenses had the center button of the Control Wheel default to the magnification in MF mode.
I can't seem to get this or any other button to work for me, and I can't figure out how to program other buttons either -- used to be a snap to do these things with my earlier cameras.
I shoot a lot of MF lenses, so this is a critical feature for me and one of the main reasons I upgraded to a7R4.
Hope someone can help me around my Sony dyslexia!
*****************
I had to wing it with non-magnified focus peaking, which I hate having the image obsured by outlines -- much prefer highest magnification.
Keeping with the thread, here's a couple images with ZE lenses this morning (Look Ma, no wildfire smoke!).

Just verified that my a7R2 works fine with both dumb adapted FD and MC-11 adapted ZE lenses, using the center button on control wheel and programmed C2 button. No-go for either of these on the a7R4. Arrrggg!
