Thom Hogan review of NEX-7

I just rechecked the roadmap, and the 3 new lenses were on there.

You would certainly hope that another year brings more choice.  I am just a little surprised that Sony didn't respond more aggressively to the general impression, voiced here often, that it's both the quality and quantity of native E-Mount lenses that is holding NEX back.  My sense of frustration was not so much about foreshadowed lenses not materialising as about this lack of response by Sony, particularly on the quality side.

It may be that Sony are pinning their hopes on the opening up of the lens standard, but we haven't seen much response yet.  I assume that CZ was already inside the tent.  If the only quality native E-Mount lenses we get, other than the G series, are from CZ then it's likely to make a quality NEX kit an expensive proposition.  OK for some, but not all.
