Ever since I bought this lens 2 years ago, I was dreaming of a Sony FF mirrorless camera.
I recently bought an A7R and discovered my lens had a problem: http://forum.mflenses.com/viewtopic.php?p=1374516#1374516

Now the problem is fixed, and I can simply say this lens is amazing.

The first 2 images below are screenshots from Apple's Aperture software.
Using the loupe tool, it is easy to see how sharp this lens is.
These screenshots are 2880X1800 pixels (from Retina Macbook Pro).

Focus was on the column (1.5m on lens' scale). F5.6

#3 HUGE dog



#4 100% crop from above (see full resolution!)
All the hairy details Smile



#5 "dancing" columns



#6 Flare test (wow! It was sunny and I was not able to produce any flare...)

Thanks!

Here is a photo of the lens on A7R. Should be about life size on 110 PPI monitors.
