But size and weight differentiate the NEX line from the Canon/Nikon DSLR offerings. I would expect Sony to continue pursuing compactness because it's the right strategy for them. And it's winning.
Having said that, I do agree that Sony have overpriced their better E-mount lenses:
* The 24mm CZ is nice but not worth $1100.
* The new 10-18mm seems overpriced at $850 based on the first shots. That's double what I paid for my Sigma 10-20mm which is a very nice lens.
* $450 for a 35mm f/1.8 is over the top too. Heck, the equivalent Nikon (very decent) sells for less than half that.
Both have OSS however

Yes, OSS is one of Sony's claims to fame.
That's the excuse for their NEX 50mm 1.8 lens being the most expensive 50mm 1.8 on the market.
I won't get hung up on most lens prices but you can buy 3 Canon 50mm 1.8 lenses for the price of 1 Sony NEX lens.
Naturally, the Sony lens is wrapped in thin metal and does have OSS.
