Eddie xpfloyd lookalike  More info | May 30, 2016 14:48 | #18242 Puckman wrote in post #18023907 I'm in almost the same boat. Here's my current leanings. I ordered the Batis 25. I will add the Batis 85 to my walkabout bag eventually. I already have the FE 55 to complete that trifecta. I will probably get rid of the Canon 16-35 (as much as that pains me) and order the Batis 18 I do own the CV 15 (M-mount version) and it's a fantastic and compact lens. I will probably keep it for now, and re-evaluate once I have my hands on the Batis 18. One option is to replace the 15 with the 10mm since the 15 and 18 are close in FL. I would dump the CV 15 if I was keeping the 16-35, but I almost never use that anymore as I tend to use it mostly as a 16mm lens (and use the Sigma 35/1.4 for the 35 FL). So in that sense, getting rid of the 16-35 makes sense. Apart from owning the cv15 that is basically me. I also tend to use the 35 art if I need 35 and only use the 16-35 at 16 pretty much Leica M11 | Leica Q2 | Sony α7RV

And do yourself a favor and get a ND Throttle to use with your 14mm. That makes it very "filter friendly" and will make your 14mm much more useful to you. I really should check out the throttle Leica M11 | Leica Q2 | Sony α7RV

It's in the Batis 18 thread just in case you didn't want to wait. I saw that but assumed he was in the states. I'll double check Leica M11 | Leica Q2 | Sony α7RV

May 30, 2016 15:50 | #18249 If the Batis continues to be BOd I might grab a Voight 10 to see how I like it. If it is good my CV15v3 will go while I continue to wait for the Batis 18 "Vision is the art of seeing that which is invisible"

shoshone Senior Member  More info | May 30, 2016 15:56 | #18251 genesimmons wrote in post #18023236 Quick question for a7 series users. Have u ever had issues with the auto switch on the evf and the monitor. I find if it's very bright out and I fold out the monitor to do a down low shot looking in the monitor it will switch to evf often when I don't want it to. Not sure why it does this. Any one else have this issue. I find I have to put it in monitor only while I shoot down low. Thanx Not with bright light per se, but I've had very erratic behaviour which usually turns out to be a single hair (from a brush for example) partly over the eyepiece , it's very sensitive, even part of a single hair gets detected Sony: A7rii
