Bad science and dissing the Sony A7 FE concept (David Kilpatrick)

David Kilpatrick on Photoclubalpha  argumented with founded tech background dismisses the groundless myth that a shorter mount to focal plane register (body thickness) cause any problems with lens design.

In fact the E-mount makes it possible to design slightly smaller medium to long zooms and very much smaller wide-angles, and normal sized standard lenses. Where there is potential for Sony native lenses to be small, there’s very limited potential for this with DSLRs.

Thanks David for this!

P.S.: Also Photochirp explained some facts around the E-mount system.
