Probably current A7 owners that want better AF :)

I don't doubt it, but go read a little in the Nikon and Canon forums. Many don't like the D610 or 6D as they see them crippled compared to the higher end APS-C bodies.

Sony is not going to release a budget FF that has better specs than the A99 or the A7(x). So the A6000 with a FF sensor would be better than the current A7 line. Who wouldn't want that and at a lower cost than the A7 to boot!

What I'd like is a FF Rebel. Personally I'd be happy with a FF Canon SL1. Small, lightweight, great battery life, optical viewfinder, fast AF, responsive. I would want what I just described long before what I'm thinking is coming in the way of entry level FF.

Hopefully I will be proved wrong by the entry level FF, but I'm not counting on it.

Nikon made the sensor in the D4(s) and DF

One other thought, an entry level FF is not likely to be purchased by entry level APS-C folk. I mean we aren't' going to see a FF for $599 with kit lens. So really, it would be the APS-C higher end buyer that would be entertaining thoughts of FF. So... is that buyer willing to give up the perks of the higher end APS-C cameras for an entry level FF?

Things like:
dual cards
dual wheels
weather sealing
robust build
more capable AF
higher FPS
Micro-adjust (only applies to dslr/dslt)
availability of a battery grip
bigger, longer lasting batteries (doesn't seem applicable in the mirrorless world though)
top display


What are you willing to jettison to say you have a FF camera?
