There's a bit on DPR about what Canikon should do with their mirrorless offerings...

This bit caught my attention...
"Demands (including from us) for more battery life, along with the need to handle and act as a like-for-like DSLR replacement has led to mirrorless cameras getting progressively larger. This has helped create a generation of cameras that are nearly as big as their DSLR rivals. And, with the exception of better video implementation and the mixed blessings of electronic viewfinders, little else to set them apart.
So what do you propose?
Essentially, I'm asking for a full frame, interchangeable lens Fujifilm X100. Ok, that might not sound much like an X100, but the common thread is of something relatively small, that by design, doesn't try to do everything. A camera that will sit happily alongside your existing camera (mirrored or not)."
But don't we have that already, near enough? The A7 is only about half the EVF hump taller than the X100 and arguably and IMO not significantly bigger in any direction as I wouldn't want either a X100 or A7 in my trouser pocket so once the decision is made to use a small bag the difference in size between any of the smaller cameras becomes IMO insignificant.
Anyway. It's there to read if anyone wants to.
Size comparator thingy for X100 v A7...
