A review of the Zeiss Loxia 35/2 lens on the Sony Alpha A7r ILCE-A7r

This is purely a personal journey here.  A little retrospective look back at the last couple months to see what I've been getting out of the new Sony a7II.  I tend to spend a lot of time looking at...

When I started looking at mirrorless cameras I naturally looked to find the
best work that was being produced with the technology and looked for
photographers using the system almost exclusively (or in some cases
completely exclusively). I wanted to see what was possible with these
cameras.

Having opted to go the Olympus route, I started looking specifically for
Olympus photographers who were pushing the OM-D's to their limits and
beyond. I found a few photographers who still today remain

Zeiss announces the Batis 25mm f/2.0 and 85mm f/1.8 for Sony’s Full-Frame E-Mount cameras

There is no other way around it; if you need a macro lens, you need a macro
lens. Though, sometimes, you don't.

Dedicated macro lenses can be expensive and, in many cases, they can end up
being a one trick pony. For example, not having especially fast apertures,
they might not be extra useful in low light or limited DoF portraiture.

I picked up the Nikkor 105mm f/2,5 F-mount lens sometime in 2010. I was
told that it was a portrait. I was told that it had buttery bokeh,
and sharpness and colour out the wazzoo. Cool beans I said.

I have a touch of what some photographers call GAS, or Gear Acquisition
Syndrome. It was just last fall that I persuaded my wife how important a
Nikon 70-200mm VRII lens was to me and how it would propel my hobby
headshot "business". This completed my personal holy trinity of Nikon
lenses, which also included the 16-35mm VR for "real estate" photography
and the kit 24-85mm VR. But to be honest, my day job in finance doesn't
leave a whole lot of time, or perhaps energy, as to allow the natu

Since purchasing the Olympus MC1.4x Teleconverter to couple with the Oly 40-150mm f/2.8 lens, I've been curious to see if the extra reach provided me by my Panasonic 100-300mm lens is really necess...

 

This lens was somewhat of a surprise to me. Generally, I avoid wide angles
like I avoid aubergine. However, I really grew to like the lens, which
turned out to not be like aubergine at all. Unlike the 14mm, which I just
could not get to like, this was different. 

Aperture ring moves with the nice, elegant clicks we've gotten used to on
the 56mm, and have the manual focus quick pull-back, like on the 14mm and
23mm.

It feels a bit bigger than the 23mm in hand, and is not shy in length ne
