Great lens, wish I hadn't sold mine. I kept the 20-35 zoom though.

 Also have a full range of Contax Yashica lenses from the 21mm Distagon to the 
500 mm Mirror lens. Might be worth getting an A7R body jut to be able to use 
these lenses again. 

Yes, for sure...

There are adapters for virtually any old lens, if you are willing to focus 
manually

Which is very easy..,
