In this case, it\'s the shallow depth of field which I desire. Because of this, I intend to pick up a couple of fast prime lenses (35 f/1.4 and 50 f/1.4), mount them on the light-weight and cheap Sony camera and be done with it.
If Canon releases a pentamirror FF camera, I\'m all for it too. Anything that cuts costs and reduces weight is attractive to me.

Off you go then. But as you\'ve stated elsewhere: good luck with the lens options.
You are right, Sony has limited lens options.
But I also said that as we move from one format to another (FF to APS-C or m43 or compact), there are certain photography aspects that simply cannot be duplicated.

Because of this, I intend to pick up a couple of fast prime lenses (35 f/1.4 and 50 f/1.4), mount them on the light-weight and cheap Sony camera and be done with it. This means I get to continue using Canon APS-C most of the time. It\'s no different from Chez who uses his FF most of the time but turns to his X100 occasionally.
