Get the Novoflex.
I just did a few test on the light leak since I am on leave and at home , with the Sun blasting into my window , I place the A7 facing the window and did a number of test shots using the following
1. Cheap RJ adapter with CV 40mm 1.4
2. FE 28-75
3. FE 35
4. La-ea4 only
5. La-ea4 with Sal 50mm 1.4
All shots at 30s , ISO 25,600 for all except RJ at 3200 , you will see why lol
1) Cheap Rj with CV 50mm 1.4 - ISO 3,200
No need to go to iso 25,600 to know that the Cheap RJ adapter is CMI ...T_T , or is this the case for all third party adapters ? Dont have the voigtlander or kipon to test
2)FE 28-75 , ISO 25,600
If you want to be anal, there is very very very slight light at lower left corner , but I would negligible and could be due to high iso artifacts. I am happy to say that no light leak issues in real world shooting situation.
3) FE 35mm , iso 25,600
Same conclusion as FE 28-75mm
4) La-ea4 only , ISO 25,600
Looks the same as the earlier two to me , with maybe more artefacts at the edges ?
5) La-ea4 with 50mm 1.4 , ISO 25,600
This obviously has more visible artefacts maybe due to more metal components, but still acceptable to me to conclude no real light leak issues.
Overall , I think the light leaks matter seems occur only at extreme shooting .

Even with the lousy RJ adapter, I tried to do ISO 100 at 30s, and the result is
as below:
Its more pitch black than any of the frames above. SO with the lousy Rj , at ISO 100 , 30 seconds, I cant get any real light leaks, I cannot see how the IQ can be affected in normal situation. The only peeps that will have issue are astrophotographers. Then again, in astrophotography ,you wouldnt get extreme bright lights in my experiment above as well.
As what Bro Ricleo mentioned, when you do 30s, it is unlikely to shoot at high ISO. To conclude, I am happy with my camera and its good to learn about its limitations Cheers

So fast no stock? Last saturday still saw ppl buying it... Fast hand fast leg these ppl (rich oso)... :bsmilie:
Show us your new toy (CV 50/1.5 Nokton Silver!)...
HK Sony lenses no international warranty. Buy a dozen, no one in Singapore will buy. How to make profit?
I can go buy a dozen for you later if you give me $200 profit for each one. No return policy though.. lol...
