Thanks brightcolours.
Hmm... I am considering the 550d but now that I happened to buy the NEX-5 I'd like to just briefly explore if there might be a hidden gem in this.
On a somewhat different note I guess more people will see my question if the thread heading is more in line with my current question. So will start a brief specific thread on this ...

Hi Jesper,
There actually is an adapter for EOS->NEX, which makes it possible to set apertures on an EF-mount lens while mounted on a NEX CSC. I'll see if I can find a link for you. Sounds like a good solution for many Canon shooters if you'd ask me. A chance to get into CSC while still being able to use all one's Canon lenses.
I don't necessarily think that the solution is to get another Canon dslr - that is a completely different style of shooting IMO. For one, even with larger lenses, it is less conspicuous than using a dslr. That is at least how people seem to experience it.
Kind regards, Wim
