Anyone using an Alpha 7 with manual lenses?

I've noticed the price of the Alpha 7 I coming down to tempting levels.

I've been shooting film for years, Leica M6 TTL, Voigtlander R4a and a selection of Leica/Voigtlander glass (50 Summilux, voigtlander 12mm and voigt 35 1.4).

Thinking of offloading the 12mm (fun, but not used much) which should almost cover a new A7.

How does the A7 handle with manual lenses? Focus peaking work well?
 
I'm not much of a pixel peeper so not bothered by a little softness in the corners. Main thing is having the option of a digital back for my existing kit, the M6 will still be my main camera.

I'd probably pick up the 28-70 kit if I found a good price though...

Handling was my main question, curious how people get on with the MF setup, focus peaking stuff on the A7.
