My a7Rvi arrived this afternoon so I spent some time getting it set up. I used Mark Galer's Camset file as a starting point and did have to do some digging through the menus to figure out how to add an additional preset and get it to show up as an option. Mark had 7 presets set up and he had set a menu item that limited it to only show those items. I then spent some time figuring out my preferences for button options and how the pre-capture and speed boost options work. After more wading through the menus I have it set so that I can use back button focus as I am used to and then have the pre-capture activate only when I half-press the shutter button (which I have set to not change the focus.) Here are a few shots from my experimenting.

A couple of wrens at the feeder.
