Thanks Alfredo, Laowa 12 is not that beast I expected to be for a 12mm 2.8 aperture... seems reasonably compact
BTW great set

Thank you guys. Yep, the Laowa 12mm is fairly compact for an f2.8 lens. Solid performing lens.
I walked the streets of Amsterdam in a different part of town that I don't ever recall visiting. Well, I stumbled into this candy store, "Janssen Camera". He had some wonderful old lenses inlcluding a silver first edition Leica M 90/2.0. The lens was in decent shape and I happened to have my TAP so I took his portrait. I did not buy the len but the glass was clean with only. bit of dust. Bokeh, looks good too!
Another gem in his shot was the Jenn Biotar 75mm f/1.5. For some reason, it wouldn't mount and shoot on my A7r2 but here's the portrait from the Leica.

Fantastic set Helena
Lovely shot Joshua
Thank you, Ronny and you are the master of catching insect in flight using a manual focus lens !
The rendition of this Sony 135mm f/1.8 ZA for portraits, especially the bokeh at wide open, makes it really hard for me to sell it. I have considered that 4-5 times but each time, I decided to keep it. The GM lens at wide open can closely match the rendition of the model but not the bokeh.
