Check out photos of the new FF Sony lenses to be announced tomorrow (Friday) at the CP+ show. They are posted on the "sonyalpharumors" website.

The lenses are huge. Disproportionately massive. I've been waiting for a Sony FF superwide zoom, and was looking forward to the new 24-240mm. Until I saw the picture of it this morning. It's so big as to remove all the advantages of the A7 in terms of size and weight.

The idea of the Sony A7 line has been great. But the lenses, not so much. Very limited selection, high prices, and now, very bulky.

I'm glad I kept my Canon gear while waiting for a good, all purpose Sony zoom. I may have made a mistake with Sony, and recommend that you think long and hard before committing.

Full frame to a smaller sensor will only affect image quality if you do large prints. Larger sensors allow pixels to function better in general, but if you are displaying images on computer screens etc., there will be no noticeable drop in quality, unless you went w/ a cheap point and shoot w/ plastic glass. Sony makes good cameras, inheriting Minolta optics and electronics. Speaking of which, I tested my old Minolta-Rokkor lenses against Leica Summicron, Nikon and Canon and my Rokkors were in some cases better. Rokkor built lenses for Leica, so that gives you an idea of how good Minolta was.
