Depositphotos analyzed 44 million commercial photos and created an infographic dedicated to the most popular cameras, settings and seasons for taking photographs. I noticed that there seems to be a small over balance of photos on Eastern Europe and Russia. So I am not sure how representative this is. Anyway, according to their data only 3% of the photos have been taken with a Sony camera:
Today Sony dropped the price of the RX1RII and you can have it for $3299 at Amazon, Adorama and BHphoto. The new pricing is actually the original launch price. But Sony months later did raise the price y $600 which is quite unusual.
Rokinon 14mm Full Frame E-mount autofocus lens for $499 only directly from Amazon US (Click here). And the Open Box Rokinon 50mm f/1.4 FE autofocus lens sells also for $499 on eBay (sold directly by Rokinon).

As you can see from the image above the size different between the new Sony A7rII + [shoplink 57167]Batis 135mm f/2.8[/shoplink] and the Canon 5Dr + [shoplink 57168]Sigma 135mm f/1.8[/shoplink] are small.
In Zeiss defense we have to add: The Batis has weather sealing, in lens stabilization and more importantly it weights almost half as much as the Sigma!
Preorders:
