 I just like the comparison as seen in my studio. I know which one I prefer to have over my shoulder! David

Yeah, I wouldn't want to spend much time carrying a D4 around. I have held one a couple of times -- it is really big and heavy. I held a D800 too and it isn't for me. I posted recently about comparing camera and lens sizes: viewtopic.php?f=49&t=6441Here is one example:  I have held all 3 of those cameras. I like the feel of the NEX 7 better than the Olympus EM-5 because the EM-5 controls are too small and bunched together in order to put the EVF in the center rather than off to the left. Also, the NEX 7 grip is much nicer.

David Different system, different purpose. I wouldn't want to drag the NEX through a swamp chasing wildlife...

David, Have you tried some Studio shot with the NEX 7 yet ? I would love to know the feeling  . I'm really looking to do my next Test station shooting in a month with the NEX 7 instead of the A900 ... being now able to rent a Canon 17 TS for the job (thanks to the metabones adapter). Regards, Frank

here they come:
studio with two soft boxes
NEX-7 with Sony 50/1.8 OSS
and a 1:1 crop
not really 1:1 due to the size restrictions!
you may find these in bigger size and more on http://www.flickr.com/photos/dierktopp/dierk

Hi Dierk - that is a very nice collection in your "size matters" picture - a camera for all seasons and occasions that's for sure.
