And Sony, to get back on topic, well, Sony has always had awesome features... on paper, then the ergonomics/design, battery life, menu fiddling and most of all: color, left wishing for more (F35 though!). E-mount does have focal reducers, so you can actually narrow the gap between APS-C and fullframe. Never really looked that filmic or too modern, just looks like... Sony, for lack of better terms. Their fullframe systems are nice, but I ain't looking to spend that kind of money on a camera body. And I will mostly want to shoot with S35 glass, fullframe lenses are too bulky for most applications when travelling a lot, but with versatile E-mount, you could still adapt some to an APS-C camera though when on close-by location and feel like rigging up.

I just wish ergonomics would be better...

Just came from a Lumix G7 to a Fuji X-T1. Just needed much more photo IQ than Video. I guess most of us, rookie/amateurish people, want a camera that just works. That's what i felt when switched to the Fuji. G7 ergonomics are great, X-T1 also, a6000 (and predictable a6300) not so much. This is just my opinion, sure, but i guess Sony APS-Cs would sell much more if they were in a mini a7 body. Or do they gave us the choice of which ergonomics to choose.Fuji gives this to photographers (X-E2s vs X-Pro2 vs X-T1) as do Pana and Oly to video-photographers.

Features look great in this camera though. It´s a Lumix G7 and many mid-level dSLR (d5500, 750d) killer, if buyers want to stay with few or adapted lenses.

I guess most m43 and Fuji users won't switch or use it as B-Cam due to the costs of good lenses for Sony. 

This will be for new buyers or b-Cam for a7s/a7R users...

Sony a6000 is also a kind of ghost in my conscience: it's now very cheap, good vídeo with updated xavc s and larger sensor than micro 43. Handling it, i didn t enjoy the ergonomics, specially evf placement. 

So gx7+ new glass, a6000, g7 or crippled glassed a7?

Hi guys;

Been lurking EOSHD for a long time now, and what a brilliant video site it has become.

I've been shooting with Oly E-P1 and Canon 60d, and it is time to buy a new camera. I'm a m. doctor so this camera will also be used to record my patients.

Budget: 1000-1200 euros

Priorities: 60% Stills (indoors, portraits, and few low-light situations); 40% Video (indoor, no uber need for 4k although good 1080p would be appreciated). 

Detailed 1080p and still IQ are what i'm looking for.

Current Glass: Oly 17mm f2.8; Canon EF-S kit zoom 17-55 and 10-18.

I'm thinking this is a good time to buy some micro 4/3 and Sony gear, due to price reductions in gx7, G6 and a7 - what do you think?

Which one do you think it is a better deal and why?

. GX7 14-42 - 500 euro

. G7 14-42 - 700 euro

. G7 14-140mm - 850 euro

. Sony a7 body only - 1000 euro

Thanks!
