A walk in the park with the A6300+TAP+Contax G 45/2 Planar (M mount converted).

Hi Pegelli,
What do you think about E20/2.8? Planning to buy it too, but im not sure whether to buy sigma or this sony.
I like it, it's a competent enough lens for me and sharper then my 16-50 and 18-55 kit lenses at 20 mm (I have good copies of both these kits). I think the Sigma 19 is sharper then the Sony 20 when comparing reviews, but it's also a lot bigger (specifically longer) which is why I choose the Sony.

Nice shots, I like the "environmental" style, showing more then just the animal.

May I ask which adapter you used and what you think about handling on the A7Rii style body?
I have the LA-EA4 which I sometimes use on my A6000, but usually I prefer to use A-mount lenses on my (ancient) A700 or A850 for a more pleasing handling and balance.
LA-EA 4
Big, heavy lens but it handles fine for me.
I mostly will shoot off a tripod anyways.
Still evaluating the Lens. Just got it recently.
I was hoping the image quality would be really good.
I used to shoot it on the A850 but not sure it's up to the task on a 42 MP camera.
I may sell it and go w a native 70-200 F4 at some point.
I'm seeking feedback on the F4 from anyone who owns a copy.

Nice one Pieter - until I saw the title I thought I was looking at a shell! ;)

In all seriousness, I've really enjoyed your shots the last few months. Quality work!

Thanks Tom, it means a lot to me hearing that from a fellow photographer from GetDPI.
I still feel like a jack of all trades, but master of none ;)

Here's one from last night, processed (or overprocessed!) to taste.


The Strait of Georgia #18.


On a side note, it's strange to need/use a tripod again!

Early shot from some 5-axis IS and high-ISO testing with my new upgrade to A7rII... can't believe this is ISO 3200:

Just got a 55mm FE so I decided to do a little comparison shooting vs. the 35mm on the RX1RII.
Here are the same 2 flowers shot w each camera.
Just wondering what people think ?
I realize they are not the exact same shots just interested in people's opinions on the sharpness and rendering.
1st one in both sequences is the RX1R II.

The greens and reds/pinks look more vibrant in the a7RII photos. Both cameras/lenses are sharp with good contrast. I'm far from being a rendering expert, and like both versions. Not much help, eh?

Thanks Barry. Yup, that lens delivers - as usual.
Incredible detail of a very picturesque scene, great light and peaceful mood.

Thank you Karl and Bugleone...very kind of you both ;)
Yep, the 90mm is one sharp lens as you know yourself Karl...both of these were heavily cropped.
It's been a bit quiet around here lately...hopefully Annna will have something for us all soon :)
