The new Z-mount is almost as large as medium format mount for some 6x6 SLR cameras
But the lens mount is much closer to the film (sensor) plane. So the light cone would loose it's corners on a 6x6 frame. My understanding is that at the mount dimensions it can't contain a 36mm square. The light cone would allow a larger sensor but a 6x6 sensor would cost as much as a house, or more?
