Decided it was easier to take a AF kit rather than some other combination. Mistake. I had the A7 out a few weeks ago with Leica glass. Sharp as it gets. MF was accurate ( magnified view). ALL the shots were in focus... Yesterday's results were less sharp. AF error? ( shot at F8...! with electronic first shutter curtain).. And slower than I rememnber.... Next time my beloved Leica Optics will be used. not as fast as AF, but AF speed is not necessarily the panacea. focus inaccuracy is just plain unacceptable to me... Of course, it could be the lens is just not as good as my Leica optics...and I am confusing focus accuracy with optical resolution... Thoughts? Frank Filippone Red735i at verizon.net
