Here is some information from a user of the a7r --

Steve Huff: "...*the A7R and Leica 50 Noctilux F/1 – Amazing combo. One can
find a used Leica Noctilux F1 for around $5k these days..add that to the
$1700 A7 and you have a drop dead gorgeous combo for less than the cost of
a Leica M alone. This lens works just as magical as it does on any Leica M
camera." *

My guess from my experience with the a7r and the 50 f/2 Zeiss, as well as
what I've read on the internet over the last year, is that the corners will
not be quite as good as on a Leica due to ray angle, but it'll mostly be at
wide apertures and not be sever smearing.

FWIW
