The Sony NEX 6 uses an APS size sensor, so does the Fuji X Pro system, and with either camera the new Zeiss Touit 12mm f2.8 is a great combo.... but it is wide.
On the APS sensor, the 12mm is like using an 18mm on a full-frame camera. I do own an 18mm in the Leica M-mount but don't use it that often because I find it just too wide.
On the NEX, the new 12mm is wide and takes a bit of getting used to before you make any good images. I've found with this shot of the two boys about to play soccer, I shot a bit wide and ended up cropping in a bit. I'm fine with cropping but was surprised that I had to do it.
The two shots in the church are the full frame. They seem to work fine but I had more time to compose, setup and move around then the shot with the boys walking down the street.
It's a fun lens, I'm enjoying it, but not used to it yet.
