Hi All, I went down to the Classic Camera shop when the Zeiss Demo day was on and they had 2 Loxia 21mm lenses to test. I brought down my classic Zeiss ZF.2 21mm to compare with it although it was a quick and dirty test on a tripod. I attached below the photos processed on capture one with no sharpening etc on my flickr account.

The only problem I had was with mounting and removing the lens as it is quite tight on the A7rii mount and almost the whole lens turns (focus ring is 2\3 of the front then a bit in the middle that does not turn and then the aperture ring). The lens is the perfect size for the A7 system.
