Notes
This was shot on Abermawr beach, Pembrokeshire, West Wales, UK, last week. I use two Camera Systems these days. One is based on the Sony ILCE-7R and the other on a Canon EOS 5D Mark I (Yep, I went back to one of my favourite FF cameras). Bought it in immaculate condition for £249.00 (~$374US) with a 6 month Guarantee. To be honest, for posting to the Web, a 12.8 Megapixel FF Sensor is not limiting. The image is all about subject matter, light, technique AND your ability to PP.
Steve, for me the superiority of the A7R over my previous Canon 5D II and III is in the lighter weight and smaller form factor. Thanks to which I take my bag with me everywhere every time, including to professional meetings, with no-one the wiser, and it has given me countless keeper shots which I wouldn't have today because I would have left my Canon at home. Superior DR and higher resolution from the A7R are just welcome bonuses. That said, I agree with everything you've written.
I would agree shapencolour. There is far too much importance placed on Megapixels. In reality, even the DxO Ratings are now suspect to me, Too many people just follw these ramblings. Yes, a Such and Such lens or Sensor measures better, but does it really make any difference to the average photographer/ I am sceptical simply becuse in my own personal experience, it really is a small part of ACTUALLY producing a quality image.

Well,12MP is more than enough in skilled hands.Even for landscapes.
