This is an extra post in a series of articles showcasing pictures taken with the Voigtländer APO-Lanthar 50mm/1:2.0 on the Sony A7R IV. I've been asked about the resolution of the A7R IV - is it worth having? After all, how much detail can you capture with a 60 megapixel sensor, anyway?

Real Life Review: Voigtländer 50 mm/1:2 APO-Lanthar lens

Depth of field when using the Voigtländer 50mm 1:2.0 APO-Lanthar on the Sony A7R IV
