The NEX 7 is a very fine camera, it was my first foray into Sony cameras. I initially purchased it as a small backup to my Canon 1 series and 5D mk2. I was looking for a small portable system that ...

Hometown for me! I like the image but I think I would have cropped it a little tighter, especial on the east side of the city, not much interest there. It's a fabulous view never the less.

Really like the processing on this, works very well as a B&W.

Zeiss 21 Distagon on Sony A7r2

This lens appears to be a hit or miss in terms or corner performance, there are plenty of samples of unacceptable corner smearing being posted in the Fred Miranda site. I have the M mount version ...

From a trip up to Banff

I have the fotodiox adapter and it works ok, not as smooth as a typical lens hellicoid, there is a bit of startup inertia but it works. I've toyed with the idea of acquiring the metabones version ...
