and somebody even gave him a "like" for that comment, lol... definitely not the target market for this camera.
every day I learn something new about the a7r... remember how we paid big bucks for genuine pentax k-mount to m42 adapters? totally unnecessary with the a7/a7r, and in fact, no k-mount to m42 adapter appears to work right with the cheap k-mount adapters i'm using on the a7r, because the diameter of the m42 adapter is too small... the lens isn't centered directly over the sensor, it slops around sideways.
so you may need to get an e-mount to m42 adapter... my initial impression is that one of the better cheap ones comes from a Chinese company called dslrkit.
wrt the lousy review that started this thread... the visibility(width, intensity, etc.) of the focus peaking area varies, you can customize it by changing the color, and also changing the jpg compression level in the camera setup menu... not intuitive at all; less compression means less peaking visibility, but remember that you also have the magnify function, which is better in some ways... for what i do, this system completely blows away any optical viewfinder, it's a huge improvement for manual focus lenses.
remember how we used to have to sweat backfocus adjustment on the lens? not a problem anymore, because most of these cheap adapters go past infinity, and with focus peaking/magnify, you never have to worry if the lens is setup correctly, the focus is easily adjustable on both sides of infinity... assuming that the lens focus ring will rotate past infinity, that is.
