I absolutely love the Sony NEX, but I do have a problem with
Sony’s philosophy on the camera. Apart
from the pancake 16mm and the newly released 50mm, any of the other E mount
lenses are comparatively huge. In my
opinion, if you can’t pocket the camera, you might as well get a DSLR, which
has better AF, is easier to hold and a nicer optical viewfinder.

The new Carl Zeiss 24mm f1.8 lens is meant to be amazing,
but it’s 3 times bigger than the camera!
Same goes for the Sony 18-200mm.
I like that Sony has introduced a 50mm, but I think a 35mm (equivalent
to a standard 50mm on full frame) in a small pancake like package would be
better. Something like Nikon’s excellent
35mm f1.8 would be perfect!
That’s why right now I have 2 systems – Nikon SLRs and Sony
NEX / Leica. Both perfect for different
situations.
