After using the fuji x-pro1 for a while now and monitoring the E-M1, A7/A7R, Df developments, I've decided to stick to Fuji for now. At least for general shooting and city trips. I've sold the 18mm and 60mm lenses and purchased the 14mm and 23mm lenses. So I'll have 21mm, ~35mm, and ~50mm 35mmEq. in the bag. Although the 23mm weighs 300gr. it is comfortable to use with the x-pro1.
Having said that. I also need something for high-resolution shots, especially macro, landscape large prints, and wildlife. My initial thought was to add the Nikon D800E to the collection. But the Sony A7R sounds really appealing too, especially for my back. So I am seriously considering the A7R instead of the D800E. I am thinking about 2 lenses initially: in the 21-24mm range for landscape, a 1:1 macro lens in the 100-150mm range, and a 300mm lens. Do you have any suggestions regarding lenses that fit well with the sony A7R in those ranges? Perhaps you may have read or heard something. Personal experience is even better. I don't need fast aperture lenses. Zoom would be OK too. Any help is much appreciated. I am not sure what I will do but your suggestions will greatly help in the thinking process.
With respect to macro, the Voigtlander 125mm APO-Lanthar sounds really attractive but it's incredibly expensive. And I don't know if it can be mounted to Sony (yes, I admit. I am not familiar with sony).
thanks, Peter
