Finally, a full frame mirrorless that can focus!

• 399 Phase detection sensors (this should fix my main gripe about the original A7R, whats the point of 36.5 megapixels if the shot is all blurry?!)

Do it yourself. You don't need a guy in a shirt and tie to give you the ok, and you've probably already got the gear.

This is so simple and clever! What's next? Circular food?
