Hi guys cheers for your fantastic advice!
Ill admit Ive used a few old cheap lenses and they have never come close to touching a modern prime (center fine, corners lacking) which Is why Im considering the MF lens.

Hi Guys,
Looking for some advice...
Im a sony user, all my kit but one lens are primes. Nothing wrong with my one zoom i have (70-200 f4) but compared to my (mostly) zeiss primes it constantly feels like a compromise - and its a lot of lens to carry round when I also carry a 100mm prime too.
So, my current setup is... 18mm 25mm 35mm 55mm 100mm and now Im looking for a 200mm (and ill probably be happy).
As many of you may know 200mm primes are pretty light on the ground, but I have read some good things about the Pentax SMC FA 645 200mm f/4 - its light enough for my needs and the handful of reviews Ive red say its a great lens.
So anyway, can anyone help me out with a few questions?!
1 - will a 200mm medium format lens result in (more or less) the same field of view as a 200mm full frame lens when mounted to the A7?
2 - Is f4 on a medium format lens (more or less) similar to F4 on a ff lens when mounted to a A7?
3 - I dont care about autofocus at all, this lens will be used for landscape and ill manual focus everything. With that in mind does anyone know what the focus throw is like on this lens, and how responsive it is when manually focusing?
I have a couple of adapted canon lenses, and I use them fine, i have no experience with adapting anything like a Pentax lens so any thoughts or comments would be greatly appreciated!
