I started collecting parts for a summer project with my son. I’ve been wanting to build a Goodman 3D printed medium format camera for a while and finally took the plunge on ordering a Mamiya Sekor 65mm f6.3 Press lens. It’s the recommended lens for one of the kits and only costs about £50 on ebay.When it arrived I tested the leaf shutter fired and the focus ring turned but I had no way of knowing whether the shutter was actually working. BUT maybe I could somehow test the lens on my Sony A7Rii and this little side project was born.

I know this for a fact, since I myself have both views depending on the day you ask me. In the extremes, the Sony A7Rii is a camera I love to hate and hate to love, and through this relationship with it, it manages to perfectly illustrate the worst of the problems I have with modern digital cameras… So I thought I’d write a post about it…
