Thanks Zalmyb. Agree with you 100%... not a flower person myself, but was taking these just to test out the close focus adapter on the A7r and also how well it handles processing in Lightroom.

Just received a Reveunon(Cosina) 55 1.2, that's already been converted to Canon mount in the mail. What a superb lens. Haven't had a chance to play yet, but I will be posting images soon. AND, I will be selling my Minolta Rokkor 58 1.2 very soon. The Rokkor has been converted to Sony A mount( I have the original Minolta mount, too), and works great on my A7! So if anyone is interested in the Rokkor, shoot me PM.

^^^ Gregg, it would be a perfect opportunity to compare Reveunon (Cosina) 55 1.2 and Rokkor 58/1.2 at various distances and apertures.
Sorry 'bout the focus; but all shots were at f/1.2

2 shots focused on the wrong eye, my daughter seems to have started turning to the right just as i'm taking the picture. 
first is the rokkor 58/1.2 second is the canon FL 55/1.2.

my feeling in general has always been the focus falloff of the rokkor handles these kind of issues better.

Nice shots of your daughter, Derek! You've been using the Sony's for awhile, so you're are no doubt pretty good at the quick focus/snap! I've gotten pretty used to to it, too, but it does take some getting used to, vs a conventional dslr...
Here's a few shots with the A7+Revuenon 55 1.2

I found some images to post!!
I borrowed a friends Nikon 58 mm 1.2 for a wedding (dangerous move, that lens is addictive).
Here are a few shot with an F3.
