1) SR5: Three E-Mount FF cameras are planed to be launched within the next five months! And let’s hope Sony doesn’t change this plan
2) SR5: Two are NEX-FF cameras and one is a DSLR shaped (ILCE) E-mount Full Frame camera.
3) SR5: The first camera(s) will be announced soon and be in Stock before Christmas (Sources didnt’ tell me if it’s one camera only or two that will be announced now).
4) SR5: There is a cheaper and a more expensive NEX-FF to come (Sources didn’t tell if both will come at the same time or not).
5) SR5: There will be (a minimum) of two primes lenses (Zeiss 35mm f/2.8 and Zeiss 55mm f/1.8) and two High Quality zooms along the first camera announcement. These lenses are FE (“F”ull frame “E”-mount) lenses. (Editor’s note: One source told me about a portrait lens too but I have to triple check this. Could be the leaked 85mm f/1.8).

The more expensive Nex-FF + my CV 35/1.2 (please, please work.. PLEASE!), my Rokkor 58/1.2, contax 45/2, contax 90/2.8, FD 135/2.8 and some sort of a wide angle... Dream kit come true!

That would be nice, I have a few kits planned for mine.
FD SSC: 24/1.4 Aspherical, 55/1.2 Aspherical, 85/1.2 Aspherical.
Rokkor MC: 28/2.5, 58/1.2, 85/1.7
M: CV15, Please oh please work perfectly.... Leica M: 24/2.8 Elmarit Asph, 50/1.4 Lux Asph, 90/2 Cron Asph.
And a few other mix n matches.
This is going to be great fun!!!

I'm almost sure there will be no problem with Lux and Cron. Hope they will work as well, those are in my kit too
Very tempted about Lux 35 ASPH FLE too: I WANT 35mm for streets, because I found out my Super Elmar 18 is a bit on wide side for this kind of works. Sonnar 35/f2.8, I'm sure, will be very competent lens, but DOF scale is a must and I'm sure again it won't have one.

I can't wait to see the Hasselblad versions of these FF-NEX....
Let's be realistic, guys. Don't expect that RF Ultra wides like the CV 15/4.5 will deliver a stellar performance on a FF-NEX. Even in the Leicas M240/M9, (with sensors tuned for RF glass), the Heliar 15 performs only so so..Quite weak corners. It's a nice lens for price and compactness but in a full frame sensor it shows obvious shortcomings.
Another case are the Zeiss Biogons (G and ZM). Are we to expect lacklustre performances VG900 like, or will Sony give us a nice surprise ?..This is the million dollar question..

I know it's very unlikely that the CV15 and current FF sensors will work well together, I expect that I won't be able to really use it till Organic sensors become common, till then Ill be very happy if my M 24/2.8 has minimal color shift.

my contax 35/1.4 is eagerly waiting for a new FF compact body with IBIS.... from the sound of it, i might be tempted by the Zeiss 55mm FE that's supposed to be released around the same time. Can't wait to see what other lenses they'll release. Hope the zooms are at least G-level (could be good for travel).
