As the thread moves so fast, I hope you don't mind if my comments are summarized for the last couple of pages.
Helena, I find the 3rd one of the b/w versions creates quite a mood, hence I like it most of the Lensbaby images.
Rene, I remember someone on this or the Loxia thread mentioned you make every lens look great. Well, your set proves it to be true another time.
Ronny and Joshua, thanks. I keep enjoying many of your photos since I joined the forum.
Peire, I especially like the middle one of your set.
Phillip, Manuel, Peter, Michael - great sets and mood.
Daniel, I liked pull in the boat and the coast sunset most.
Ole, I really like Serenity.
Jannik, I like the b/w set and to me, the 2nd one stands out.
Werner, it's amazing how you manage to make 10mm work. I sometimes even find 21mm quite wide and honestly think it would be too wide for me personally to make it work this way.

To conclude I would like to ask a favour - keep posting
And especially those who already got a Loxia 85 since it seems so nice based on the images posted here and the L85 thread.

Thanks for the comment Roland. a wonderful thing is to delight people with pictures. life is made up of louder moments. everyone is right now is unique. and photography is the ability to capture this and to share with everyone.

Thank you, Ronny! Nitro is really a fearsome looking German shepherd and you captured him at the peak of his jump. Bravo!

I already passed that age and believe me, it doesn't work quite that way .....

Thank you, Michael! Those are some awesome "apparition" - I love the sweeping movement there.

Thanks for your likes and comments about my Loxia 85 +fog shots. Too much fog this morning but I am still very bullish about this lens (sorry, that was pathetic!)

The last 4 pages or so seem to be particularly stunning. Really nice work.
Makes me a bit less inclined to want to process my mundane stuff (but just a bit!)

Loxia 85 with the SR app. Clouds were moving fast. I think this was about a 50 sec exposure. I tried the 16 Stop and 10 Stop ND filters but the clouds lost their definition.

First photo excursion with the new camera, just climbed to the Art department on campus and took pictures in the aftermath of many of their projects. Amazing how the files require an entirely different approach toward processing (I feel like I am overdoing it right now and they are just *missing* something, but this is the first large batch), I don't have a hang of it yet, hopefully in the next few weeks I will. Bought a small bag (Lowepro Format 120) that is exactly perfect for the A7II + Voigtlander 180/4 + Canon FL 55/1.2 and am now carrying the camera wherever I go. It feels great to do that.
All of these are with the Canon FL 55mm @ f/2.

And a couple of a cheeky squirrel that decided to follow me. They climb a tree next to the building, then hop off the branches onto the balcony. People like to bring their dogs and they will run up and down the stairs of these buildings chasing squirrels on the railings. The squirrels are fearless. Love the image stabilization with the Voigtlander 180, it really is a game changer. I am surprised at just how big of a difference in terms of field of view that the switch from crop to full frame makes. My 55mm is much more useful (strongly considering the Zeiss at some point), and I really like the 180 as a true 180 (I also liked it a lot at ~270 equivalent on the NEX 5). The jump from the NEX 5 is a big one : )

Wow I never knew that Phillip is in the house
Great pics Phillip, I can see you shot these with the VM 35 1.7, and it's also your review of this lens that scares me away with regards to pronounced field curvature....
Are you able to explain how I can avoid that/what I should look out for? Thanks.

Two with the 1.4/85 GM. I am reading quite often, that f/1.4 is useless on a 85mm lens, especially in the Loxia discussions around the net. I have to disagree - this can be the special sauce for some images.

I started this thread (only because I was lucky enough to receive on of the first a7 cameras ever shipped)
The field curvature is only a real issue in a rather limited set of applications, when it is focused to about 1.5-4m and when the aperture is at f/1.7 or close. Here are some examples:
For most uses it is a no-issue and I think my enthusiasm for the lens was pretty evident in the review. Stopped down to f/8 it is a great performer for landscape photography.
