You're correct! I'm not one who talks much about "that 3D look" (as I think it is mostlly hot air), but in this case that actually is one of the major differences in rendering between the samples I posted.
I own the a900 and love it. It is a very good tool and I own high quality glass from 16mm to 400mm. The versatility is fabulous and that huge and clear OVF is a marvel. It is a work horse and will stay in my stable until it dies a horrible death some day.
I rented the a7r in order to see what all the hub-bub was about. At high ISO it seriously makes the a900 and the DP3 look like junk cameras. In AF speed, and versatility it also makes them seem pre-historic. But for me, it is the ultimate look and feel of the image "on paper" in a fine print that matters and the DP Merrills just can't be beat this side of about 20K $.
The a7r goes back tomorrow and I have zero interest in buying one, now that I've spent some time with it.

Thats the reason my A7R is being put up for sale, in terms of DSLR its the best out there and nothing comes close but for IQ, resolution its the Merrill all the way till SONY releases their upcoming 50MP in a A7R body.Rand, you say A7R AF is faster than one on a900?

i would use "fill light" as much as i can in SPP, export as tiff, then fix it in Lightroom 5 (using local adjustment brush). or photoshop. it will be a long and boring process if you want to do it in details. almost painting every leavesStruggled to expose this one. Does anyone have any advice on how to expose trees so that the spaces in between leaves and other parts of the scene do not get washed out. Thanks
