Now that I'm back, I just received the Techart Contax G to NEX AF adapter so I'll be testing that out. I updated the firmware. It appears to AF quite well but it's also quite noisy.
Any idea how AF with the adapter might be on an A7? I have the G45 and G90, so I was thinking about getting it, but an A7R2 is a bit out of the price range right now. Despite some digging, I couldn't find much information about it's performance on the A7.

No benches or ducks around, so my cat will have to do for breaking in a new lens.

Thanks for sharing the nice photos and the LR adjustments.
As the whole how do you like the VC Ultron 21mm on Sony A7 body? Do you have to stop down the aperture much to get good edges? I am interested in exploring this lens as I am using all M mount lenses with TAP. Hopefully this lens performs better than the Leica SEM 21mm on Sony. Thanks.
Thank you! You can read some of my thoughts in this post from about ten days ago:

The only thing I can add right now (still too early for a definite opinion) is that I noticed when shooting fog the other day that the purple corners were quite pronounced at times. Not too hard to fix though and I'm still pleased with the lens. No smearing as far as I have seen.

Rich, I have no idea how it would work on the A7 but I would anticipate it to be slower. I would say that this Techart Pro Adapter is good but not as good as the Techart Pro for Leica M to NEX. Maybe it's just the noise of the adapter which is almost screeching in nature. So far, I have found it able to focus well even in indoor environments where there is less light but in darker environments, it begins to hunt a bit more.

Hi Rob,
Thanks. Unfortunately the Techart Pro Adapter does not work on the A7r. So, for now and since I am both unwilling and unable to swing an A7rII I will wait probably wait till I get an A7rIII after release to use the Techart Pro Adapter. Also, for work with an A7 series camera with my Cambo Actus camera, Manual focus can only be used with this ser-up. But with the Actus I turn my A7r cameras into mini view cameras. Hope to come back with images this weekend and the following taken with this set-up as well as using the A7r cameras in the usual set-up.

Hi Rich. I'm not familiar with the Actus Cambo system so I went to their site to explore it. I'd be interested to hear how and where you sue this system and beyond maybe tilt/shift, what you get out of this system that you can do with traditional camera/lens combo.

Cold weather created nice light in town Thursday morning, but unfortunately I had a dentist appointment and only had time for a short "tourist walk".
