End of the day, all the above comparison is pretty pointless. You consider whichever one you have the body for, and the practical difference in equal settings is not going to be noticed by anyone outside the hardest pixel peepers. Lens choice is something that needs to be considered when entering a system. To me, a main benefit of the "slow" Sony is the small lens size.

Not just the size which is smaller but it's twice cheaper too. So Canon lineup has hole that they don't have twice cheaper 85mm F2.8 lens that's twice smaller. That's a hole too.
