Exactly, Samsung was building an apsc 'pro level' system. Sony is not, being focused on ff.

The only alternative is fuji and they haven't reached the same level of nx1, even at a higher price.

But Sony is still making pro level system in FF though right? I keep hearing/reading that more and more pros are now switching to Sony FF (A7Rii) for professional photography.

And if a pro had to choose between APSC pro level system and FF pro level system with everything being equal, I'm pretty sure FF would be the preferred choice.

*IF* everything else being equal as in whatever advantages provided by APSC (cost, smaller form factor than DSLR, faster AF, faster continous burst) is matched by the FF counterpart, THEN why would they choose FF over APSC.

Why? And if among two things, everything is equal, then they are the same!

Haha good point

There is an expression here "if my grand mom had wheels, she would be a skate board"!!

With everything equal, why not a medium format sensor then?!

It is a bit pointless, but do not forget that Cinema S35 is closer to APS-C than any other photographic format, and that worked really well for a lot of decades of cinema!

Anyway, full frame cameras are very cheap right now. You can find some amazing deals of 6D or A7ii, even the D750 has an amazing price for what it is.  There is Pentax too!
