Sony is going to release a full frame NEX camera. According to the latest rumors from SAR, after the SLT and NEX introductions (first two revolutions) Sony is about to change the photographic and video industry with the third revolution… a new Full Frame NEX system!
This new full frame NEX camera will compete against Nikon D800, Canon EOS 5D Mark III or Leica M9.

So two questions:
One, if the above image is supposed to compare the current NEX E-mount and APS-C sensor with the new NEX full-frame mount, then why does the right half of the image show only an APS-C sensor? Shouldn't that show a full-frame sensor?
Two, the inner diameter of the two mounts in the picture above are identical. So why would Sony come up with an entirely new mount? Why couldn't they use the same E mount with a full-frame sensor? The E-mount is after all, a little bigger than a Leica M mount, so it should be able to support a full-frame sensor.
