First this not meant to be a opportunity to whine and complain! So please do not post complaints here. Also please avoid lavish praise of your favourite brand, we all like Sony to a lesser or greater extent - shall we take that as read?
What I am hoping for is an intelligent, constructive and thoughtful consideration of how things are shaping up for Sony Alpha users.
First, I have some concerns that may help to kick off the discussion and they are these:
1) Will "legacy" Minolta lenses still work on near future Sony Alpha bodies? I'd hate to loose the use of my 35/2 for example.
2) Will the EVF really be good enough for people who use their cameras for long periods of time during the working day (eyestrain, etc)?
3) What chance is there that exotic optics such as a Sony 24mm T&S lens become available?
4) Will full-frame be enough of a business success for Sony or will it be dropped in the near future as so many serious users are increasingly getting attracted to Nikon or Canon?
So what do you think?
