I own a A700. The CZ 16-80 is my daily lens. I have several other quality A mount lenses.

Over time, I have noticed that I am less and less willing to take my DSLR with me on casual outings. Too big. Too much work. My bad......

I just bought myself a NEX 6. I harbor no illusions about the quality of the kit lens. That said, I am very excited about having a small camera to take with me when I am just not into dragging along the A700.

The bonus is that with the purchase of the LA-EA2 adapter for my A mount lenses, I have a complete camera system in a more compact package.

I did the same...and I put my money where my mouth is.  I abandoned full-frame Canon MkII and "L" lenses in favor of NEX system.  I just got tired of carrying around the bulky and heavy gear.

The quality I get from the NEX is worth the reduction in weight and bulk.
