How much does that weight?!?!?! (I'm not going to ask cost since it's probably more than I've made in my lifetime...)

Unfortunately Sony has been toting this thing around for almost 3 years I think. They CLAIM it will come this year with the new FF.

That's funny. The SAL is even Sony's naming nomenclature. Not sure why they thought it was a Nikon.

Ah well, still pretty sweet.

You are not wrong. They used to have one that looked more finished that traveled along with it.
