Below is an image of Dark Hollow Falls, Shenandoah NP with water at extreme high after 16 inches of rain had been dropped several weeks before date of October 19, 2015. Image taken with my WATE set to 18mm on my tripod mounted A7r, ISO 50, lens set to f8 for 1/5 second. Processed in LR6. This is using the original Phigment Leica M to NEX adapter. Unfortuantely Paul discontinued the adapter after running out of parts for V2 of the Adapter.

I have yet to really try the lens on my A7r since it has been modded to an A7rM V3 but from what I have heard from others having had the mod, the lens should perform even a lttle better into the corners.

Thanks Rich. A fine image.
Hiep (alias hiepphotog) and I did the comparisons between A7r2 and A7r2.Mod version 2 images.

We found that the WATE was in the corners a tiny bit better for the modified A7r2.
But for the WATE alone a modification of the camera is not worth it as some native FE lenses will give inferior results.
Of course, for other M lenses a modification can result in big improvements.

Regards, K-H.
