[Leica] Fwd: Sonny/A7R111

[Paul Roark]

Be aware that the thicker Sony sensor cover glass softens the corners, and
sometimes edges of Leica M glass images from about 75mm down.  The question
is how obtuse the ray angles are at the edges and corners.  At 90mm I don't
see a difference.  The 75 and WATE are affected in the corners but some may
find them OK.
