Thought you might be interested in this link although its not on A7/A7r.Interesting stuff, and some lovely photos.
It seems I'm so happy using the A7 with the Leica R or Nikkor SLR lenses, I rarely find the motivation to experiment with other things. Really have to dig out my Skink pinhole kit and work with that a little bit.
However, I'm curious if anyone has experimented with the Lomography Petzval lens on the A7/A7r? It's a bit on the pricey side, but the imaging character seems very interesting. I've found that lately the 90mm FoV is working for me very nicely, have two rather different ones to work with already (Summicron-R 90/2 and Nikkor-H 85/1.8), and am entertaining the notion of trying another.
Any comments would be appreciated.
thx

Sounds interesting. If you can post a couple of photos from it, I'd love to see them.We tested the Petzval on my Sony A7r in Yosemite on our last workshop. Not sure we posted them though but it does work really nice and with live view and focus peaking you can see exactly what each of the drop in patterns do and such. Pretty cool lens.
Bob shoots it quite often on his Nikon and Jack has it as well. We actually tested Jacks copy
