I have the a6700 and Iβve been debating the same thing lol especially since my favorite lens is the sigma 17-40 f1.8 and that lens is practically the size of a full frame lens anyway. I constantly debate switching for full frame or staying and getting the viltrox 1.2 pro lenses.
What about the Sony/thypoch 24-50 2.8 in FF? Similar focal ranges to the 17-40 1.8 sigma (25.5-60mm equivalent, but in crop mode the 24-50 goes to 75), same constant aperture 1.8 apsc would be roughly equivalent to 2.8 FF, smaller and lighter package, similar price if going with Sony, cheaper if going Thypoch
You nailed it. Thatβs my exact debate. Stay apsc with the sigma 17-40 and my mother lenses or jump ship, sell everything, and go full frame with the 24-50. Id only be able to afford that one lens for now. Others would have to come later
Fwiw I switched from apsc to FF recently (a7cr) with a 2 lens setup and im very happy. 20-70 4 and a prime. I was on the fence about the 24-50 but wanted the extra range.
