Hi Boris, I can understand your reasoning and generally agree. I got my son a NEX-6 to replace a broken Panasonic P&S, and he's not particularly into photography.Drawing and graphics is more his cup of tea. However he took it and his iphone 5 to Seattle recently. His report back. 'Wow! I put my iPhone away and used the Sony.' He was really impressed... something that's hard to do with my 22 year old. :) Sony is on a roll. They've taken a number of missteps IMO, but the NEX line is a success and the A7's appear to be ground breaking. In the end it's about IQ and usability. Affordability as well. BTW have you got a chance to listen to Paul McCartney's new album entitled "New"? It was released in US on 10-15. As usual, I love most tracks.
