Quote:I don't think people here actually want Sony to ditch FF DSLRs/SLTs, but there will come a point when it isn't good business sense to continue. Sony will likely drop mirrored FF long before CaNikon do,
Sony will drop mirrored FF, including SLT, but they aren't dropping A-mount FF and APSC anytime soon. That's for sure. They have dozens of lenses and all are in production. Sony makes and sells products that are far lower volume than their A mount cameras, like F55 for example.
See the above photo of FF prototype camera with FZ as the native mount. That's far more lower volume product, as Sony doesn't even make FZ lenses, but yet they have officially shown the camera in development stage.
How weird that Sony will release a FF camera with FZ mount with ZERO Sony lenses but yet they will drop FF in A-mount with several dozen lenses. It's simply not happening anytime soon.
