Yes, I should have qualified that to semi-pro, Pro and advanced enthusiasts camera success, specifically more in the arena of cameras that would interest folks that frequent forums like this. I had Zero interest in a Sony DSLR until they had a decent spread of AF Zeiss lenses and a FF sensor.With respect, Marc, I am not sure that Sony's numbers tally with your comment. All interchangeable-lens cameras except semi-pro and pro models are used overwhelmingly with kit zooms. That does not contradict your lust for an optimized FF NEX+Zeiss, mirroring on a different level the excellent Sony RX 100, combining a very good Sony Exmor sensor with an also excellent Zeiss zoom. Just, that alone will not be enough to make a FF NEX a success...
There was an interesting thread on the DWF (Event, Wedding, Portrait and Boutique centric forum) where a pretty accomplished wedding/portrait shooter employed a NEX 7 along with his Nikons, and gave it a pretty good field test report ... mostly good and some bad. Raved about file quality and in some cases preferred it over his trusty Nikons, but the single biggest drawback was lack of high optical quality, fast AF lenses devoted to it.
