After more than a full year of declaring the A7R II as the finest FF sensor ever made, DXO finally got around to testing a lens on it. New lenses came out from Sony well after the A7R II came out and were tested at DXO -- but only on the original A7R, much to the Sony fanboys' chagrin.
Well, wait no longer. Here's a first pass on 18 lenses tested on it, including two of the G Master big pickle jar pro lenses they recently released: https://www.dxomark.com/Cameras/Sony/A7R-II---Lenses-tested
Of note:
More to come on this, I'm sure. This is just the tip of the spear. I'm curious to see how their 70-200 f/2.8 G lens performs.

Of note:
- The previous 9 highest resolving lenses were (not surprisingly) mounted on the 5DS R. No longer. Three Zeiss primes on the A7R II have cracked the top 10: Sony 90mm macro, Zeiss 55mm f/1.8, and the Zeiss Loxia 21mm f/2.8.
- They have not yet adaptored any non-FE-mount glass to the A7R II. Would be interesting to see someday.
- Comparison of the three major 24-70 f/2.8 lenses.
- As the Otus lenses + Nikon + Canon + Sony doesn't lend itself to a 3 headed comparison, here are all the 85mm f/1.4 (or faster) lenses -- apparently the Sony G is 'Otus grade'.
- Haven't found any eye-rolling DXO overall score inflation for a lesser performing lens.... yet. (The day is young.)
