Fred: “We discovered something very important while testing this lens.
With the A7RII, setting EFCS (Electronic First Curtain Shutter) to “On” will affect bokeh rendering when shooting the 50/1.4 ZA wide-open combined with high shutters speeds (> 1/1000s). This is actually true for all large aperture lenses (f/1.4).
Look at the out of focus rendition difference with EFCS set to “On’ and “Off” (at f/1.4):

Of course this won’t be an issue with lenses without EFCS like the original A7R.”
