Sony a7(R): Best thing that happened to Canon users this year.

^thanks. Yea I've been thinking of picking that one up. I missed out on a good deal on the Voigtlander 35mm 1.2. Yea the 24 2.8 is pretty decent. I use it from time to time when I dont need the low light capabilities, otherwise I just throw on the 24L II.

The 35 1.4 is a great bargain I would recommend getting one if you get the chance! With the 24L do you manual focus or are you using a metabones adapter for autofocus? I have been really curious on opinions on the autofocus speed and use with the metabones.

With the 24L I usually manually focus even though I do have the metabones adaptor. The AF is just as slow as when you are on live view on a DSLR. its tolerable for landscape and product photography if you need AF.

Think new Canon lenses are overpriced? Lots (and lots) of data will set you free!

i saw a few posts asking what adapter to use for Leica M mount (which is pretty much Voigts as well). I suggest you get the Hawks Factory Version 5.

You can try the cheap china knockoffs for 50-80 dollars a piece but going Hawks might be the best price to quality compromise.

Essentially, the Hawks will allow you to focus close with your Leica/Voigt glass removing one of the annoying traits of these lenses....

Thats exactly the reason why i havent gotten my voigt, coz im waiting for the shipment of the adapter from Taiwan.

I so far have a cheapo $15 leica m mount adapter on my A7 and have had no complaints beyond not being able to focus super close. The following images were shot with my Voigt 35 and $15 adapter.
