FS: Voigtlander 12mm ƒ5.6 Ultra-Wide Heliar II - $549

I have too many ultra-wide angle lenses, so decided to let this one go. It's a gem of a lens, and works great on the A7 family (you'll need an appropriate adapter.)

A recent shot with this lens on the Sony A7S-

 
Mike curious how it works on the A7rII
Here's some snaps with the 12mm on the Sony A7Rii (using a Novoflex M-to-E adapter).

I used the Lightroom profile for this lens which fixes vignetting and distortion.

I'd say it works very well on the A7Rii. The corners are little soft, which is not surprising on a 42mpx sensor. But if I resize the image to 12mpx to compare with the A7S, it's a least as good as on that camera.
