Almost forgot that I briefly had an A7r with a FE55 that I tried out for a backpack/packraft trip a couple winters ago in the Maze. Going through some pics...
Super nice images above!
Jack...Really subtle...very nice.
Nehemiah...super awesome bokeh on that Minolta 100/2! Wow...I'd love to compare it to my CY 100/2 and Oly Om 100/2!!

Thanks Gregg!! The Mino 100 is super impressive--I actually just sold my CY 100 f2 about 2 weeks ago, and while the rendering styles are different, I think the Mino is in the same league and it's much more compact with AF to boot. I am very curious about the OM 100--how does it compare against the CY 100?

Photo taken the evening of April 24, 2016, at 6:48 PM (62 minutes before sunset) looking at farmers fields along Loch Valley Road, New Tripoli, PA. Image taken with my tripod mounted A7rM V3 and my Zeiss 35mm f1.4 Distagon ZM lens, ISO 100, lens set to f11 for 1/60 second. Processed in CornerFix and LR6.
An old image from a few months ago...I shared some individual images back then when I took this, but I didn't finish the panorama. This is with the A7 II and Loxia 21:
Werner...congrats on the 10mm 5.6. Looks great in your hands!!
Nehemiah...the OM 100/2 compares really well against the Contax 100/2 actually. I was surprised. It doesn't hold the plane quite like the Contax does. And for landscapes, the Contax is a better to the corners than the OM. But, thru are def more similar than different, which I was very surprised to see. But the OM has a better MFD, which makes for great pseudo macros, or portraits, and the bokeh is to die for up close. And, it's not quite half the size of the Contax, too. A superb lens...

@f2...
And this is the Contax @f2, a different composure, but you get the idea
Vivitar/Kiron 100/2.8 - once upon the time famous third party,true (RR 1:1) macro lens is still a very good tool with character.
To get the whole FF frame sharp,stopping to f5.6 is advisible,contrast wo is low and some CA may appear.
Despite all these - colour rendition and oof blurr wo are very nice,built quality excellent,overall IQ very good.
