Sony, why have you messed up MF-Assist in the A7R ?

[multiblitz]

On my Sony Nex-7, I could specify MF-Assist on a buttom. What it did was wonderful:

You press it,get your magnification directly and when you released it, you had the full Picture back. Very quick process.

On the Sony A7R: No way. You Need to press the buttom, you get a useless window which you could in theory move around to magnifiy a different area, than you Need to press again to get magnification and than you Need to press two times more to get back to the original overview-Picture.

WHAT A MESS !!!!!!!!! PLEASE, PLEASEadd an an Option like with the Nex-7 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I dont know if I understand you right ... but ... on my A7 with kit lens I use for example ...

- Focus mode: DMF

- Half press the trigger and keep holding to autofocus > if focus is not exact > keep holding the trigger half pressed and manual focus using the ring on the lens (magnification on the screen is visible) > after releasing the focus ring on the lens it takes about 2 seconds to see the full image again without magnification > now continue to full press the trigger

Does this work for you? Did I understand your problem?

Cheers

I can copy that. Could you please bring back the push to magnify and release to return to full view. Thanks
