A7 series still a long way to catch up la. Plus if they going for different mount, sure an adapter there to support the default lenses. DSLR only problem is weight but the toughness, I says it's solid. Dropped my A850 twice, still ok. Heh heh!
when that happens please don't forget I predicted it. hopefully I'll have enough lives left to see it
Unfortunately it seems like Canon either gave up with the EOS M or are not sure what to do with it. Till date, there are only 3 lenses made for it (22mm, 18-55mm, 11-22), and one coming up (55-200), but the 11-22 isn't even sold in the US. If you use any EF or EF-S zooms on it, the whole setup becomes bulky again.Correct me if I'm wrong; DSLR's weaknesses are weight and dimension. But if you attach 70-200s on full frame mirror-less like A7, it's not that small either.
The picture in Gizmodo website shows Sonar 35/2.8 prime attached to the A7. Try this:
Admittedly the difference is quite there if you attach 24-70s.
I guess the sweet spot is on crop mirror-less like A6000, EOS-M, etc; which are truly smaller in both dimension & weight. Also, don't forget that compact / point & shoot cameras are really catching up.

I think m4/3 or APS-C mirrorless is the way to go - hell, maybe even the Nikon 1 system. The main advantage of a mirrorless system is the size and weight, but if your lenses are still heavy and bulky, then that advantage quickly goes away.
In the end, you cannot cheat physics...
FF 70-200/2.8 will always be that big. There is reason why zooms for the A7 series are all F4...
I agree with casual users on the move to mirrorless etc... but in the end, the professional industry will still use the big stuff.
i bring dslr to safra swimming pool hip my children siong, lifeguard say cannot use big camera because camera too big, make people uncomfortable
on another day, i ask my wife to hip siong using dslr, nobody comprain
one guy use small camera in pool hip siong, also nobody comprain
:dunno: :bsmilie:
You're lucky, your wife can carry the dSLR for a while, at least to get away from the lifeguard's attention.
Imagine those single men without wife/kids/gf.. who to carry? :bsmilie:
