In only 13 months Sony has released several lenses for the full frame FE A7 system. 13 months, yet we have a slew of NATIVE lenses to choose from, with more on the way. Current native Lenses for the full frame A7 system: 16-35 Zeiss - Superb Ultra Wide Zoom, SUPERB 28-70 Kit Zoom - CHEAP and Decent 24-70 Zeiss - Excellent Zoom, just as good as any Canon or Nikon 35 F/2.8 Zeiss - Bests my Leica 28 Elmarit at 1/2 the cost. 55 1.8 - Gets close to the Leica 50 APO at 1/8th the cost. (I have done side by sides on my site. many preferred the Sony lens. Was quite shocking actually) 70-200 f/4 - The standard go to tele focal length. There is also a 28-135 Cinema lens for FE mount by Sony. Zeiss 35 f/2 Loxia for FE Zeiss 50 f/2 Loxia for FE Nine lenses, 13 months. Not bad at all. New fast primes on the way this year. Within 3 years there will be more lenses for FE then you know what to do with as third parties are making them for FE as we speak. Those lenses above cover 16-200mm right now. The A7 series is only 13 months old. In 13 months that is quite a number of lenses released. More than Fuji managed to release or Olympus for that matter in the 1st 13 months of their system launch. The FE mount is NEW so for this many lenses to be out already is quite amazing really. So if you want NATIVE mount lenses, there are plenty here now with more on the way. If you want to be adventurous there are so many lenses you can use and have more fun with and get even more beautiful results with for not any more effort. It is the most versatile system you can buy right now with more lenses available to shoot than any other system. Not sure why everyone is claiming there are no lenses for the 13 month old FE system when there are plenty with more on the way. ;) I get by with 2-3 lenses at most so all I am waiting for is the 135 f/2 and a 21 2.8 which will be here eventually.
