Really? I would have thought the FE 55/1.8, being ranked as one of the better lenses out there, would have been free from such basic errors in drawing. Huh, just goes to show. Glad you like the pic tho.Nisen happens sometimes with the FE 55 1.8 and often with the FE 35 F2.8 - not a look I like too much, but it looks nice in your shot!
Godfrey I would love to see some images from your Robot Zeiss Biotar. (Sounds like a Transformer)That's pretty cool! I should pull out my RoBot II Zeiss 40mm f/2 Biotar and see how it works on the A7...
It seems rare - I only see it in shots where the aperture is wide open and the subject is in the very front of field, and there are strong lines further out - they then can become double. I gave one example of it in my review of the lens but I have not noticed it often at all...Really?

HI BobLooks like a great lens, camera combination...
Compelling capture.
I am sure it is nice to be home...

Perhaps I'll have the opportunity this weekend to try it out. I've just put the book that's been consuming my life out for review so I won't be working at all this weekend.Godfrey I would love to see some images from your Robot Zeiss Biotar. (Sounds like a Transformer)
How tight is it ? Would it be inconvenient to change lenses relatively frequently in the field ? I own both a 24mm TSE and a 90mm TSE, (plus the 70-200mm F4 and some other standard and wide angle zooms). I'm still on the fence as to whether I should acquire an A7 or A7r. But I wouldn't want to buy several of theses expensive Metabones smart adapters.That's an awesome combination, the lens is quite bulky but the quality fantastic. I have posted some pics here (in the old Fun thread) with it and the A7R.
My Metabones Smart II works perfect the fit is tight , yes, but better than loose...
Have fun and show us something

Your 28-70mm has produced many excellent images, so I'm very interested to see/ hear if you feel that the 24-70 is noticeably better, and will you keep it.Well, my 24-70 f4 and my 55 f1.8 arrived today no time for snaps yet, so here are 3 from last night with the old 28-70 zoom.
Thanks !my metabones is a MarkIII and i had to use major force to rotate it onto the lens, but it did go on, and i expect it will reside there permanently.
my hands are pretty strong and it was much tighter than i would like. from what i have read they loosen up
also made me start to think about a special L-plate that will mount to the metabones socket...
