Good glass is always good glass.  Jayanand is correct that the native mount
lenses will almost always provide an image that is far easier put on the
sensor.  Auto focus at this stage of the tech is almost always more precise
than manually focused unless you do all the usual: tripod, biaxis focusing
rail and point magnification on the view screen.  Then there is the current
lens correction routines in native lens to camera connection.

All that is I certainly enjoy many of my lenses on a mirrorless platform
buy increasingly I get better results using native mount lenses.

All the best.
