Although I own a Sony laptop (so far, no problem, hopefully, it will go on), I tend to agree with Azrifel.
I don't think Sony can compete with the major other companies (e.g., Canon, Nikon), especially regarding the optics. They are probably one of the major companies for electronic devices, but that's it. Their experience is rather limited regarding the optics, and the experience gap they need to fill to be at the same level is way too large.
We will see how it goes with the newly introduced FF Sony camera, but I doubt pros will be ecstatic about it, they will probably go either Canon or Nikon simply because both companies 'share' an incredible amount of knowledge. Time will tell though.
