Good thing is there are lots of 50mm choices that are adaptable to that. QUOTE]
This is one thing I keep thinking about. Imagine the MF legacy 135mm lenses, 50mm lenses and 28mm lenses that suddenly are useful again. I hope Sony has the brains to make the camera as photography-friendly as possible. SS and EV dial, in built VF. Focus peaking/easy focus magnification. IBIS. Even with Sony's history of slow lens releases on NEX, you might not need them right away with all the good legacy glass.
A point made today on a different forum about the ff Nex and Leica lenses...after thinking about what the user said, I have to agree w/ him...
He basically said that the nex7 was not good w/ certain wide angle legacy lenses... That Sony is not going to do something special to handle the issue w/ micro lenses that Leica did.. They are out to sell their af lenses and if the old rf based lenses happen to work then great.
While the nex5n, 5r and nex6 w/ the 16mp sensor had no problem, I was never sure if this was just happen chance. Anyway, the nex7 was fine w/ lenses from 50 on up and usually of w/ 35 but below 35 it really depended on the lens is the way I remember it.
Until Sony releases the new ff body, hard to tell which way the dice will roll here, but the made point is not to get your hopes up if u like wide angle lenses...
