I'm using a variety of lenses on my A7s. I only kept my 100 macro, and my 90
Summicron R lenses, but I'm using my f1.2 Konica R 57, and other reflex lenses,
Konica, Pentax to name a few. I also have an adapter for M42, and use some of
my old timer German and Japanese glass.

I'm using the c/v 15mm too, but I understand it has some smearing on the other
A7's and I'm not sure if that goes for the II.

My favorite M lens on it is my pre asph summilux 35, and the summarit 75
becomes a delightful lens on the Sony.

It's really a fun camera, and I LOVE the electronic viewfinder, not to mention
the absolutely silent shutter of the A7s, all with full time live view.

I still use my M9, but it isn't my camera of choice anymore, I hate to say.

Hello All,

Having tried out the new Sony A7II in a store I believe it, or the
rumored A7R II , will fit my needs for a "do everything" body. I can
see one of these models replacing all my M and R bodies. In
particular, the ability to use adapters to mount just about lens from
Alpa Reflex to ZI Contarex with body mounted anti-shake is just fab.

I have held on to my Leica R lenses, even though I do not use the R
system very much these days and wonder if any list members who own A7
series cameras have successfully used the 20-35 zoom, 28 2.8 (1st
generation) and 28 PC lenses with their cameras? If so, comments would
be appreciated.

Regards,
Akhil
