Thanks Joshua for the stunning shots.
How do you focus? With AF? Or manually? TIA.

Hi K-H,
Thank you! I used AF most of the time for those long shots. I used the advance mode of the Metabones IV for those two. How do I remember that? Actually, I don't but the giveaway is the aperture indication of the exif being f/3.9. On the default or green mode of the adapter, it gives me f/4. The AF is excellent and quite fast and it worked 90% of the time or so on that trip. The AF algorithm of the lens seems to jive very well with the algorithm of Metabones. The long focal length is not conducive for fast AF but the fast aperture of f/2.8 helped the case and apparently made more than up for that.
I am considering starting a thread, detailing my experience of using a long or longish Canon lens with an adapter for wildlife shooting. Some folks on the Nature & Wildlife forum asked questions, as well. I hope I can do that soon.

Thanks Joshua.
Coming to m43 and Sony gear from Nikon and Leica stuff, I have never owned a Canon lens.
Your tele Canon lens in your expert hands certainly delivers stunning images with great IQ on the Sony A7r.2. Congratulations!
For long tele lenses I have gone in a different direction, first with Leica R lenses and now with m43.
My m43 Olympus 300/4 Pro lens, including the MC-14 1.4x TC, delivers outstanding optical performance.
Hopefully soon I can use that lens on an E-M1 II.
K-H.

Nice shots everyone. Sebboh - look like perfect light to me. These are fabulously original . . .
A few from late this afternoon on an almost summer like day in Minnesota. Great weather for late September!
The second two are with the Zeiss Contax 100/3.5 both at f/8

Cross posting from the OM image thread.
Recently acquired the OM Zuiko 24mm F2.0. The intention is to use it (via the TechArt Pro adapter) for the wide as my M WA lenses don't do well.
Two shots here taken during my first walk around to see how it performs. It was under mid day hot sun.
