All the pictures below were sharpened 50% with cranked up vibrance + 15 and +15 clarity and 60% highlights decreas in LR5.4 to make them look more Zeissy At 24mm,28mm and 35mm barrel distortion was corrected.All taken at f8.

I pretty much increase the vibrance, contrast, and the saturation with my Minolta CLE 40mm f2 M-Rokkor, Leica R, and Contax (C/Y) 21mm f2.8 Zeiss Distagon lenses for my RAW A7r files. I almost always crank then up to close to what you have indicated.

My Zeiss C/Y,ZE/ZF and Rollei HFT lenses don't require that much tweaking to get comparable results.Usually only a touch (5-10%) of vibrance and clarity,no saturation and no contrast cranking up.The 16-70/4 needs to be PPed significantly more than all other Zeisses I have.Just like lenses of other brands with lower IQ.

Peire,

I need to increase my settings a little more with my Contax (C/Y) 21mm f2.8 Zeiss Distagon than my Leica R lenses and I believe a little more than my Minolta CLE MC 40mm f2 M-Rokkor lens.

Long time since I posted here but also quite some time since I used my A7r. A forrest quartet from tonight. First and last with the Zeiss ZE 85/1.4 Planar and the middle two with the Zeiss ZE 35/1.4 Distagon.

Four from today.

I was not setup for this shot, but the BMW was coming so I whipped up the camera and snapped it. After some work, it turned out to be not bad. Sony/Zeiss 24mm ZA.



This was taken with the Sony/Zeiss 135mm f1.8 ZA.



Another with the 24mm ZA.



And finally, one with the Sony/Zeiss 35mm FE.

Couple with the FE35. I really didn't think I'd like this lens as much as I do - it's like a lightweight AF ZE 35/2...minus one stop, of course.
