Like this one very muchly!
Thank you Bart
I was very sorry to hear that you had a lot of your camera gear stolen a few years back...That's a truly annoying thing to happen, I really do hope you manage to recover it or at least some of it oneday and the police catch the culprit .
That makes perfect sense to trade in the Pentax 50-135mm lens for the CV65mm especially as you already have the wonderful Sigma 135mm ART lens...Two fantastic prime lenses IMHO.
Anyway I'm glad that you are enjoying your new lens, it's an easy lens to like with not to many cons, I certainly am enjoying mine and very happy.
I did find it interesting what you said about the barrel diameter and it's close proximity to your fingers...I have never read that anywhere else and it's also my main gripe with my chunky fingers. I find that the back of my right-hand middle finger is almost rubbing on the scalloped focus ring at times...I wonder if the space between the A9 grip and lets say a typical std. fast large diameter lens has been expanded outwards over the A7R and A7RII cameras grips...Perhaps K-H could chip in here as he has both cameras...some inside calipers should show if the clearance has been increased or not.
Cheers Barry

Hope the running water didn’t ruin anyone’s sleep! I’ll be camping soon in South Australia’s Flinders Ranges in the state’s north, beautiful but sere, with water a rarity in the ‘driest state in the driest continent’. No waterfalls at all!"All to ourselves"

Very cute image Barry, Thanks. I wonder whether they needed a VW license?
