Sony A7r vs Leica M - Part 08 - Leica R APO 100 Macro Part 01 - English

Hello, I'm an amateur photograph with a passion for photo gears and great pictures, I invite you to visit my flickr site

I hope my english is understandable ! :)

Test procedure :

• Tripod and RAW
• ISO 200 on both camera
• Same speed at each aperture
• Focus done in liveview with maximum magnification.
• JPG from Camera RAW
• Temperature : Daylight
• Sharpening : 0
• Noise reduction : 0
• No other correction.
• Downsize of the A7r picture to the M size for a fair comparison. (Downsize image in bicubic smooth mode)

Here is the picture with the crop position :

Conclusion :

It is the same result between A7r and the M, with a very little advantage to the A7r, he's got a slightly better resolution. Now I need to test the same lens with the Elpro to see how the lens perform at macro 1:1
