Looks very nice Bill, I'm envious of your FE 16-35 (but not of that powdery white stuff).
My dilemma is whether to keep my EF 16-35/4 which I am very happy with on my A7R (with MB IV), or sell it and get the FE version. From the limited samples I have seen, I believe the FE mount is close but not as sharp as the Canon, but that opinion is not based on any proper comparisons. But assuming there is a slight loss in sharpness, there is a lot to be gained by using the native mount lens, with weather sealing in a smaller, lighter package. The other downside to me is the upgrade will cost me about $700 with the value of a used EF 16-35/4 around $1000, and the FE around $1700 including taxes here in Canada.
Decisions, decisions...
