Was looking at the Leica 90mm f/4 macro, but got the FE 90mm F2.8 Macro G OSS instead.

My wife wanted a couple of pictures of sunflowers for scrapbooking, so I went out one morning and got myself into some bees, too. These are some heavy crops from my beloved Minolta Rokkor-X MC 50/1.4 PG and the Sony 55/1.8.

If you didn't have extension tubes that's quite a crop. They hold up well. I'm curious, I have the Minolta MC 50/1.4 PG and finds it outperforms my Zeiss 50 and FD 50s. How does the IQ compare with the FE5/1.8, which I am thinking of buying?

No extension tubes. And it was close to 1:1 crop. And as for the PG, its a very special lens. Terrific color. Sharpness is great, but it renders things just very nicely to me. However, the 55/1.8 is also special, but in very different ways. Very contrasty lens, which means that it really only shines in certain uses and is a waste in others. Here are a couple of of my favs with each of these lenses, that I feel sums up the way these lenses make me feel about my shooting.
I love both of them. But the PG can be had for under $50 every day of the week. But the 55/1.8 is always with me. Love it.
MC Rokkor 50/1.4 PG - It just thrives in this low light with lovely textures and color. It just sort of gives me a feeling of the place every time I look at this, for all intents and purposes, boring picture.
55/1.8 - That strong contrast, sharpness, and that lovely little 3D pop that is understated by comparison of 85, 100, or 135mm's.

A7RII Minolta 100 AF Macro F/2.8 wide open. I am in the process of re-examining every lens I own. I am finding they exhibit very different behaviors on the A7RII. This lens in particular is a much better performer than it ever was on the A7r or A7s.

A few images from a unique church, the Mosque-Cathedral in Cordoba. It was first a church, then it became a mosque and then finally converted to a church again. Fortunately, it was early in the morning when I got there. By the time we left, it was packed...

Do we want or do we need two full-frame A7/r image threads? Fred?
