Last weekend I rented a Sony A7RII with 85mm F1.4 GM, as I'm intrigued by the new Sony A7RIII.
I like the bokeh of the lens very much, and all my Zeiss ZE lenses worked on the rented Metabones adapter. In this respect it would be a run and grab the Sony A7RIII.

But I still need to learn how to achieve good skin tones. This is what I achieved.

Did you rent a Sony A7r II or A7r III?

The last images appears too "red" for me. Somewhere between or within the first two color rendition is probably your best bet. Again, it is a matter of post processing based on your taste/liking.

the first looks a little too yellow green and the others look too red to me (otherwise delightful images). i always had trouble avoiding making my canon skin tones too red.

i don't think you're going to get skin tones to you're liking until you've gotten used to processing the files, all the brands have their distinct color signatures that take time to learn to get the best out of.

speaking of color correction, sometimes if the sky is too boring (not uncommon in portland) i don't correct the color shift on my rangefinder lenses to give them a bit more color.

@Sebboh and AGeoJO
Thank you for your visual feedback. Obviously I did overshoot in my dislike of the green skin tone.

>> Did you rent a Sony A7r II or A7r III?
I could only get the A7r II.

Q: Is there a visual difference in skin tone between the two when processing RAW?

Almost at the end of the eagle shots from Conowingo this year.
For me the FE100-400GM+2.0TC has been eye opening on Sony's true
capability.

With bones and joints beginning the creaking of old(er) age I'm just very thankful
I'm still in the game thanks to Sony and the much lighter overall kit for wildlife.

there is a difference between the a7, a9, and a7rii (though i find it more noticeable in landscapes than skin tones), so i imagine that the a7riii is different as well.
