The primary advantage of mirror less is size/weight. The primary disadvantage is EVF and slow focus. You can bet the two disadvantage will eventually go away (evf imho are almost better than real viewfinders in terms of overall feature (though actual presentation of view is not yet as good) and the improvement rate is quite rapid (i.e, they will only get better). The focus issue is a bit beyond me in the sense that I am not an expert in the field and i do not understand all the fine details in making a quality focusing mechanism that is both very fast and very accurate (contrast focus is plenty accurate and phase focus is plenty fast - now we need fast and accurate <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='

I am not sure I am a representative person, but when I have tried Sony NEX-7 the main issue was EVF - I felt looking "at", not "through"; after about 20 minutes I got eye strain and headache - it was really unpleasant. Second try ended similarly, and I decided to skip this thing <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='
