If it had the 24MP sensor it would be more realistic for the price to come in around $1800-$2100 (US)*. With such a superb optic as the Zeiss 35mm f2 biogon (from what I've read), I would venture a guess that at $2799 the sensor is the same one that Sony agreed to give Nikon 6 months ago for a typical 6 month lead before Sony came out with anything using it: the 36 MP Xmor. If you're going to go to all that trouble to build a FF digital fixed lens camera with the best 35mm lens in Zeiss' arsenal, why not have the best sensor at your disposal to go with it?
*With the recent drop in price for the NEX 7 I wouldn't be surprised if the opening price came even closer to the estimated opening volley for Nikon's rumored D600 24mp FF camera. Around $1500-1700.
