Hardly a surprise, at least for me... The "lightweight" thing was just a strategy to lure customers into the brand... to me it was clear since when a lot of FF lenses came around, with almost no news for APS-C.

 

Fortunately with my latest approach to equipment I decided to have the smallest equipment set possible, and I'm fine with the things I have, a long tele being the only exception, but it was clarified that a specific APS-C design for a long tele would make a negligible size benefit.

 

I only wonder:

1. whether it's a smart move. Had Sony offered only FF mirrorless since the benning, I wouldn't have moved away from Nikon. 
   
2. whether Fuji will take advantage of the move (I'd say: yes)
   
3. whether third parties, such as Sigma, will fill some gap.
