I have been watching this thread with interest and some satisfaction.
Piere - simply stunning shots with the 24!
I picked up a breech-lock FD24/2.8 a couple of years back for my 5N, but used it little due to the foibles of FD/FL aperture pins on adapters, alluded to a little by Fred.
I now have the A7R and tried the 24 for only a few shots - looks good.
On the strength of this thread I have also just bought an FD 20/2.8 locally on eBay.
I am also going to splash out on my first Novoflex adapter, now that I have about 5 FL and FD lenses.
One klutzy challenge I have right now though - I managed to totally bind the 24s FL breech lock ring against the rear lens cap - nothing wants to budge. Does anyone have a solution? I note two tiny Phillips head screws on the side of the lock ring. Perhaps if I unscrew those I can free up the jam?
