Little performance degradation with the native FE lenses. Which means Sony could reduce the stack without shooting themselves in the foot. I doubt this is news to be hopeful that they will, but it\'s still interesting to know that they can.
Edit: A few people have commented that the improvements we see on M wides isn\'t enormous, making me realize I left an important disclaimer out of this post. These lenses experience peformance degradation mostly at/near infinity - we\'re not seeing much \"correction\" of degradation at the shorter focus distances Imatest uses because there isn\'t as much degradation to \"correct.\"
