The NEX-7 is on the back-burner. I ordered it from Amazon last
September and due to the flooding disaster in Thailand, production was
delayed. I got an email from Amazon in late March saying it would ship
in two days. At that point I had a different financial priority so I
cancelled the order. I still find it highly desirable for a small
light travel kit.
Thanks for the other thoughts.For landscape work what I need most is
resolution and accurate exposure.

I suppose that if you had bought NEX-7 thence, you'd have 24 MP and you
would be less "worried" by 36 MP of D800. But seriously, it may well be
a good thing that you did not buy NEX-7 as I suppose soon enough they
will have to produce an upgrade anyway. Also Sony is long overdue with
their upgrade of the full frame line - I think A900 and A850 are among
the oldest on the market now (unless they've already been discontinued
anyway). So may be next announcement from Sony would be worth your while...
I should however point out that at least Canon don't cancel 5M2 having
introduced 5M3. So they're allowing themselves to split the prices and
either you get an oldish camera for fewer bucks or you shell out for new
one. So it seems the "affordable full frame" camera prices took a dive
towards USD 2500 during previous Moore cycle and now they're on the
bounce, so to speak. Not talking here about how various FF DSLRs compare
between themselves.
