Looks likely Sony is accommodating--FF NEX equivalent that can use 
E-mount in "crop" mode. No reliable hard data on this though.
May be good for use with Zuikos with the focus peaking feature.  
Perhaps replace 5D MKIII, perhaps not.

Bo Ming cracked the aperture control of Canyon lenses on NEX and I 
think a week or two ago activation of IS  in IS lenses.
(Canyon lens to NEX adapters with these features  should be marketed 
soon)
He  hasn't put a ton of effort  from what I can gather on AF as he 
doesn't think it will work all that well --NEX with focus peaking
feature may not benefit as much as MF is fast and good.  So those with 
a bunch Canyon glass may still prefer NEX.  I have no clue if he would 
work on new Fuji, but must be a market there too.  He had a ton of 
experience cracking the Contax N conversion to full auto Canyon.

Still, wonder if MFT is better than high end P&S for beltable small 
option.  Head is spinning with all the permutations to consider.
