It must have been hard leaving both the MD 58/1.2 and the FD 35/2.8 TS, two of my favourite lenses, though obviously what you did take worked very well for you.
This spring in Portugal I was schlepping both lenses all the time and while the results were really nice (the FD35 TS has excellent corners, a bit better than the already very good one of the MD35) the heavy bag sucked. Now in the Uk we did a lot more hiking so I decided to carry a lighter kit. This is one of the beauties of the a7, I can pack a small lens if weight matters,
What stands out especially to me, is the rendering with the Tokina AT-X 90/2.5. Almost every shot with it attracted me. I've heard of the Bokina, but this is my first viewing, and, oh dear, it looks like another "must have", especially as it's a favourite FL!
It is a very nice lens, no doubt. But does it really have anything more modern lenses do not have?
