Orion Arm 8 panel mosaic

This is 4 x 2 images using my new Sony A7r (same sensor as the Nikon D800E) and trusty Nikon 14-24mm lens. I used a Novoflex adapter which solved the distortion problems I was having using a Metabones and a Chinese adapter. The Novoflex is rock solid and obviously uses the exact spacing which is critical with this lens.

I took a few panoramas last night using various lenses. A Minolta Rokkor 24mm F2.8 and a Zeiss 35mm F2.8.

I'll post them later once processed.

Minimal processing here. Auto white balance works great on Sony and Fuji cameras. I also used the Sony lens compensation App which is good.

Manual focus and review of images is a breeze with this camera and its lightweight means it is easily withing the Polarie's load capabilities (it also handled the D800e well despite being over the stated load limit).

The airglow was pretty last night. I believe I could see it slightly visually for the first time.
