Those are beautiful Michiel. Hard to see how you improve on them too much no matter the camera/lens.
It also seems a remarkably similar design to the Mercado Central (Central Market) in Valencia which is housed in a wonderful building (hope nobody minds the shot below which was NOT taken with an A7(r) but is just for reference to the above) :
Really got to play with my Leica Summilux R80 today...I can see why this lens has a reputation! These images were barely PP'd at all. Totally minimal...

Crazy lens. These two very different shots were taken with a Pentacon 50mm F/1.8 on an A7r. The Pentacon has two odd traits and one great trait. It has a very annoying and busy bokeh at some distances and it vignettes wide open on a full-frame camera even though it was designed for full-frame. As you can see the annoying bokeh disappears close up. The one redeeming quality is that the lens is quite sharp.
Totally miffed. I bought a Techart Contact G adaptor, that arrived today, and it won't even fit on the G mount ! The Red Dots do not line up and that 2 cms difference means it won't lock on though I can hear the AF trying to work and of course the MF ring fine tune doesn't work either

A7r + Sigma 150 non-OS
How do you like that lens ? And just as important ... on an A7r ? I have a non-OS version going in excellent condition for $400 and thought it would make a great long portrait as well occasional macro lens.
The sigma 150 non-os is great on the A7r. For the price, its a no-brainer. I owned the nikkor 105vr, 200/4 micro at one point and sold them both in favor of the sigma. Its that good !
