Interesting shots! Would you mind sharing which prism/filters you used?
Thanks! I used mostly Vivitar 5R and 6R "multi image" filters.
The Vivitar filters I found seem to be 3P - (3 prisms in a line), 3R (3 prisms meeting at a point in the center), 5R (central clear zone, with 4 prisms around it), 6R (central clear zone, with 5 prisms around it), and 6P (6 prisms in a line).
My favorite is the 5R.
If you can't find Vivitar you can find Hoya easily, and even brand new "no name" versions usually sold a part of a package of special effects filters.

ED? Isn't that a Nikon label?
How does The 4/70200 L IS handle on your a7r ? Now that cheap EF adapters are available I am considering to replace my FD 4/80-200 L with one because of better corners and IS.
Phillip:
It's the Canon L 70-200/4 IS, with Metabones Smart III adaptor. The EXIF is written by the Cam and somehow it writes OSS instead of IS. Sorry ED is Nikon o/c, my fault.
Works and handles very good. IS is working as is AF. AF is slow so i don't use it very often.
The lens is, as is known, very sharp in the whole zoom range.
Size and weight is about the same as the native FE 70/200 a little more with the quite heavy Metabones.
The biggest advantage against the FE lens is the minimum focus distance which is considerably shorter on the Canon. I often use t as a "fake" macro. The "Garlic " shot was handheld with IS and manual focus.
To me the most amazing things about working with A7r files are the dynamic range and the ability to crop. So many pictures that could not have been "fixed" in post with other cameras turn out nice on the A7r.

When I do the effort to wake-up 2AM, I take multiple exposures Posting maybe last one before getting LA-EA3, as my nerves can't take anymore C/Y 35-70 rotating front. With LA-EA3 I can use ZA 2.8/24-70 with A7r, that might be fun, not only for landscapes but for other uses as well.
