Just picked up a Voigtlander 40/2 Ultron SL II for my A7R2 and ran a few test shots. Fence finial shot wide open (looks like its time for a little fence maintenance). Really impressed with this little lens.
Great shot, Joshua! Deserves to be on the Nature & Wildlife forum so non-Sony shooters can enjoy this image and others you have captured at Bosque.

Another one from a cold morning at Bosque del Apache. It took a while for the moon to set for it to be less bright and a little bigger, showing some details but the focus is on the flying sandhill cranes.

Thank you very much, Jim! I have been enjoying your new neck of the wood images in the NW. Thanks for sharing!

I will post them there as well as a "Bosque set" but I am still going through several thousands of images from that trip . I am still in the selecting process. You know the silent electronic shutter made you really unaware of the number of images you took and I am not even talking about 20fps here. No wear and tear of the mechanical shutter though, which is a good thing.

Fabulous Joshua. Being there and ready - timing is everything, given your skill set!
Playing with the FE 100-400 on the A7rIII. What a difference from the A7r2. The lens is functions more like it's on the A6500. I wish the weather were more cooperative. . .
Cold morning here at the beach with temperatures in the 30s. I can hear the snickers now, but this is unseasonably cold for the Florida Panhandle. I primarily shoot with Leica (SL, M246 & S007), but having spent considerable time scrolling through the images on this forum, I am motivated to experiment with Sony, specifically with the a9. I bought the a9 primarily to fill a void that Leica does not cover - wildlife and action photography, but I am also interested in experimenting with it for landscape and general walk-around applications. The only native Sony lens I have at the moment is the 100-400 GM, but I am finding that my Leica lenses are right at home on the a9 body with the Voigtlander Closeup Adapter-M.
The first two photographs below were taken with the Leica-M Noctilux 0.95 adapted; the last two with the 100-400GM.
