True, but was still impressive given that, but towards the borders it remained strong which is certainly attributable. I do like vignette as well, but I'd rather have sharp edges than blurry if I get a choice!
And agreed, it's a bit odd looking, especially with the shape of the adapter but it wasn't uncomfortable to use. Might try the 75 as well this weekend.

Mike, thanks for that shot of the Samyang 35, looking good! Ronny, I'd say you had a worth while trip.
After reviewing some film recently I was impressed by the Bronica 50/2.8 for the ETRS. So I decided to get an adapter and try it on the A7II. The adapter might go back, too tight to mount, but still impressed by the lens!
I like the images a lot. Not surprising, though, that it is so consistent from WO to stopped down (one of your comments with an image). You are projecting a medium format lens onto a 35mm sensor. Similar to taking a good FF lens and projecting it onto a cropped sensor. You are seeing only the center part of the projection, where the lens should be the most consistent. I saw the same thing when using a Hasselblad 80 or 150 on a Canon FF body.
For me, though, I actually like the edge effects of lenses (except when shooting landscapes or architecture), as I think that the edge softness and vignetting can be an asset in other subject matter.
Weight of the Bronica 50 is actually nicely distributed, even if it is bulky for an a7 series.
