Re: Fun with the A7/7R
Entry in the Leica wiki about it:
24mm f/2.8 Elmarit-R - Leica Wiki (English)
Mine's a 1978 example. It's a nice size and weight on the A7, handling feel is good. In my test shooting around the condo, mostly at f/4 and f/5.6, the images look good, they have that signature look and feel I expect from Leica lenses.
Can't wait to do some real shooting with it.

I know that many dis'ed it because it was manufactured for Leica by Minolta. However, my thinking was 'hmm, Leica felt it was good enough to keep in the catalog from 1974 to 2004, unchanged except for electricals in the mount for the later cameras—how bad could it be?'

re: Fun With Sony _____
A few more from swim practice earlier this week. All shot with the a900 with the broken select button, and the ZA 135/1.8. I left the iso at 400 just to see what the lens could really do in low light. Photos minimally processed.
The photo of the teen in the orange goggles was taken about 30 seconds after he did a race pace swim. The photo of the younger kids was taken at the end of practice. I wanted a bit more dof and light but I am very happy with the way the photo turned out.

This is the old CSM sugar factory terrain. The office buildings are in old silos.

Re: Fun with the A7/7R
Finally got back up close to the freezing point and went for a walk near our "new glacier". A7R + Leica R Vario-Elmar f/4 35-70.
Edit: One last "elegant rot" image of the old park ranger's house. This is full size so be aware if you click the image you will get a very large image back.

These look very good. Do you happen to remember what aperture / focal length these were at, please?Finally got back up close to the freezing point and went for a walk near our "new glacier". A7R + Leica R Vario-Elmar f/4 35-70.
