Thank you, Nadim! Yes, it was done in a studio. You did get my PM, didn't you?
Love the lighting. 
Thank you, Charles! Both Canon lenses I mentioned to you earlier performed really, really well. I will send you a PM later.
I see it now! Doh! I was out in Downtown LA yesterday. Mixed results, but I'll post a couple of shots.
I'm having a hard time adjusting to some of the A7R2 limitations, I find. Coming from the Canon 6D, I found everything there was always predictable (including the limitations), which provided me with a certain confidence when shooting: I always knew what results I was going to get.
I'm struggling a bit with the Sony in that regard. I find limitations where I don't expect (long night time exposures, for example).
And after walking around downtown for about 5 hours yesterday, fumbling around with a shoulder bag carrying 3 zooms (2 of which were Canon EF 16-35/4 and 70-200/4 IS), fumbling with adapters and a tripod, I have also come to the conclusion that while I may keep the bigger stuff as part of a "heavy kit" (Something that I'd take in a car, or when I don't expect much walking), I really need to explore transitioning to a kit of Voigtlander (or similar in size) lenses. How great would it be to carry around 3 lenses that fit in the palm of my hand (more or less)!?
The challenge there is that I lose AF.
My next lens purchase is meant to be a good 35mm prime. I was eyeing the FE 35/2.8 (small size fits the bill), but also the CV 35/1.7 (thanks to Phillip's review). There's also the CV 35/1.4 (not sure how that stacks up against the newer 1.7). I've now ruled out the Sigma 35/1.4 ART and the Rokinon 35/1.4, as well as the FE 35/1.4 (on size and weight concerns).
Stay tuned

Awesome last photo Rène. I shot a "white giant" for years. The rendering on those 2.8 mino zooms lenses is superb.

More from Grand Canyon North Rim, Arizona -- A7RII with Sony FE 24-240mm I learned something interesting processing these photos. The current Adobe CC Lightroom has the feature of a haze slider. The day I was at the north rim was a dusty, hazy day. I was concerned about how many images would be usable. As it turns out, the amazing haze filter allowed me to dial in the desired amount of haze removal desired with remarkable precision. These images would have been very difficult to PP without this feature. Thanks Adobe!

Thanks! Yup, those images were from a pre-wedding reception, the night before the actual wedding day. The wedding reception was held at a different location .
This image was taken earlier today following the concept of a glamor Hollywood-style portrait of yesteryear. To my delight my Canon 24-70mm f/2.8 lens in combo with MB IV did an excellent job. The PDAF worked so well that the lock-on AF works almost like a Sony FE lens.
Wow, what a shot.

Really like those two bike shots, impressive separation in very nice light. Is it wide open?

Gregg, the first shot with the sword. I could only imagine my little nephew with that thing, just trembling with excitement. I don't think I could take him to a place like that haha

I'm not sure if it is by coincidence that Ronny and Michiel posted two beautiful "grandscapes" at the top of this page with people in them showing the scale of what we are looking at, but in both cases, well done. These are very nice images that truly convey the vastness of both landscapes.
