Does anyone really care? :)

It'll probably only take their brand new Memory Stick FF. :)

But It's got a BOINZ processor in it :) I assume that is something to do with chemistry in New Zealand.

Agree Oz, it does look fugly.

Chris, if you compare the penta-prism height of the new Sony relative to the diameter of the Zeiss Planar 85/1.4 ZA in this photo

and then compare it to the penta-prism height of the F6 relative to the diameter of the Zeiss Planr 85/1.4 ZF

Going by those pictures, it seems the prism of the Sony is not big enough for full-frame - but I suppose we'll find out later.
