Apparently Sony is rumored to be working on a Full Frame Nex.

Considering that I only see crop sensors on any of their cameras (that currently are on B&H), are they going to have a different mount (meaning new lenses to make) or will the A Mounts work on these with the larger sensor?

I'm pleased about this. Makes a lot of sense to have a full frame camera with an electronic viewfinder. A bigger version of the NEX-7 but much smaller and less weight than all the current full frame cameras would probably sell well. Sony used to own Mamiya, I used to like the look of the Mamiya 7 film camera and imagine this could look something like it, if they're going to follow the trend for retro design.

With fixed focus lens and the price of 2800 USD + hundreds for viewfined etc.? No thank you :-(

This is a very interesting camera. I hope the next step will be one with interchangeable lenses. I love using my Leica glass on my sony 7, it would be fantastic to have a full frame camera with good video abilities as well.
Looks like Leica is getting some real competition.
