Something is nagging at me to go back to smaller sensor

When it comes to camera bodies though, you've got the Sony FX30 which is arguably "the best" APS-C body there is today for pro filmmaking. But what is there for photograhers??? There is only the Sony a6700 at the top of their ranks, it's certainly falling far short of being a truly pro body.  

If Sony is to take APS-C photographers seriously I'd say at the minimum they need to put an APS-C sensor inside an a7 series body. (although of course their dream would be an APS-C sensor in an a9 body, but doubtful that will happen)

Although then again, perhaps I could argue Sony has kinda abandoned pro APS-C filmmakers, just like APS-C photographers.

Where are the APS-C replacements for the FS5/FS7/F5/F55???? 

I really feel like "an FX60" (an FX6 with a FX30 sensor) is needed if Sony wishes to show they truly are committed to the workingman S35 videographer.

At the moment he only has these four options:

1) use an ancient camera, such as the FS7

2) use the prosumer grade FX30

3) stretch his budget to get a Sony FX9, then use it only in S35 mode

4) ditch Sony and jump to another brand (RED Komodo X? Blackmagic Design URSA Mini Pro? Canon C70?)
