Nah, Sony have a history of making their own standards. In this case it will be hard even for them to enter the DSLR market on a totally new mount/format, but rather than adhere to a open standard, I think it will appeal more to them the available Contax name / mount / client base. Time will tell. <wishful thinking> Maybe Sony's interest in the DSLR arena will boost their R&D in large sensors as well potentially disrupting Canon's ruling, which is a good thing. Who knows, the affordable full frame sensor might even get closer than we expect. And hey, maybe Foveon is on their shopping list as well, and that great idea of 3d sensor is not buried for ever... </wishful thinking> Servus, Alin
