I was ready to cancel my NEX-7 order based on its problems with rangefinder lenses. But then I got a noticed from Amazon that mine would be shipped next week, then minuted later they told me it was shipped. I\'ll get it Monday. Not sure if I\'ll keep it. Half the lenses I want to use on it are rangefinder lenses, the other half would probably be used with a tilt adapter. (which is the other capability you can get with SLR lenses if you accept their size). The samples shown here look fine here -- philber suggests the IQ is in favor of the NEX-7. Even without the file in hand, you can see they are comparable (colors a bit different, but that than can be pretty much fixed in conversion with a good profile if you prefer the 5D2 look). I\'ll probably just get a 5N and be done with it until Sony decides give us a NEX-7N.

I\'m curious to here what you end up doing. I have also come very close to ordering the NEX-7 but at the last minute, I keep changing my mind.
Well, my NEX-7 is due to arrive by the end of the day, and I just scored a NEX-5N (w/RRS L-bracket) on ebay, so we should see very soon. I suspect I\'ll wind up selling the NEX-7 for now in anticipation that they will improve it down the line.
