That is a drop dead gorgeous composition. I am impressed it is handheld and shows a really good eye to get the wonderful flock of birds.A7R with Sony LA4 adapter and Minolta 20mm f2.8 lens, hand held. ISO 400, 1/100 at f9. Center is sharp, corners not bad, edges (left /right) a little soft, but all in all I would not hesitate to make a 20"x30" print. I have also included a 100% crop, actual pixels....no sharpening applied yet
Thanks

Gorgeous image Dave. Definitely 20x30 worthy. :thumbs:A7R with Sony LA4 adapter and Minolta 20mm f2.8 lens, hand held. ISO 400, 1/100 at f9.

Great shot, Dave - now maybe I'll spring for a 20 mm. The reviews of the Sony I've read are not particularly encouraging. They say the Minolta is a better bet - exactly the same optics but better built.A7R with Sony LA4 adapter and Minolta 20mm f2.8 lens, hand held. ISO 400, 1/100 at f9.

Hi Bill,Walked around the village today in bitter cold/wind!
a7r with 35 Lux ASPH after being exposed to -20C (-4F) for over an hour. Obviously reliable in freezing conditions.
Very cool. Congrats!Always nice to get a proper photo credit. One of my day job projects got some press, put on my photographer hat for the day with the A7:

Bill, apologies for my ignorance, but what do you mean by LCC plate; what does it entail? Etc.This is not presented as a great photo - it isn't - but as evidence that the a7r + Voigtlander adapter + Voigtlander 12 mm work just fine together as long as you use an LCC plate. The corners are not 100% perfect but good enough.
Also noteworthy is that this shot was at 1/30th and shows no evidence of shutter vibration and no smearing in the corners (tho' there's distortion of circular objects!).

But a little soft and fluffy to the lower corners. This could be the lens or the adapter aberration.Walked around the village today in bitter cold/wind!

Did you do any post processing for the WATE pictures?
Thanks
