I use my pre asph summilux and a skinny tele elmarit 90 on the Sony A7r3 
quite happily.  I also have a 135 R I like.   I?ve only had this Sony since 
December, and I also still use my a7r2.
A drawer full of lenses ranging from micro Nikkor 55, to some soviet glass 
all work nicely.  That?s mostly play, and all but the m lenses have eBay 
grade adapters.  
I use a Novaflex on the m lenses as it is a little smoother to operate.  
I?ll really need some more time to wring it out as we?ve had dreadful 
weather here and I haven?t been shooting much except flowers inside.
