Yes! There is a standard power zoom being released with the NEX6, and a 35/1.8 as well. I think Zeiss is also releasing 3 prime lenses next year for the NEX (and Fuji X).

I have enjoyed my 5N, only have a kit zoom, which is fine at f9. Touchscreen focus is very good. It forced me to learn the importance of white balance correction and its dynamic range gave me great pleasure: I can pull out shadows from nowhere and pull back highlights almost anywhere. People need to be patient, wait another, realistically say, 6 months to get the 35mm f1.8 and another 15 for the Zeiss primes. By that time Sony will have released another 2 bodies in the series. I am not people and so not that patient. I will be at Shiguma DP2M or a D600 by the time those lenses come around.
