Fine day today with brilliant sunlight here in Japan, I went out to shoot with my new gear!
Here are my tested results of A7RII + Pixco LM-E adapter + ZM 1.4/35 + 5m PCX.

Thank you so much for your work!
You also granted me some free time as testing my filters here won\'t be necessary anymore.

I also appreciate that you have investigated the situation at different focus distances.

To me the results are astonishing!
It always made me feel sad to see what may be the best 35mm 1.4 available crippled by the thick cover glass.
But as it seems we can now use it in it\'s full glory on the A7 cameras.

The optimal filter being a rather weak 5m is also great to hear,
with my too short Fotodiox adapter it will easily be able to focus at infinity.
But as the difference between 5m and infinity on the focusing ring
is very very small I will also try if it is possible to reach great sharpness
at infinity slightly stopped down with my helicoid adapter,
as I don\'t want to miss the option to focus down to ~20 cm.

I can\'t wait for my filter to be delievered (@Fred I was told 1-2 weeks, so we are in the same boat I guess).
