I've noticed this too, and I'd still be able to use my R extenders and 
extension tubes (no mount changes!).  It can also use FD, AI, pre-AI, EOS, 
G-type Nikkors, and with a few restrictions that mean little to me, just 
about anything else you can put on 'em.  With the A7r at 36 full-frame, 
no-AA-filtered MP.

I'd have to see for myself what I think of the EVF but from where I sit it's 
the only possible deal-killer the A7r has.
