Hadn't really thought of it that way! I could already see myself heading down this route at some point in the future my 5d mkii seems to have a 35mm f2 permanently attached to it these days so a small full frame body with a compact 35mm prime would be a great replacement when I'm next in the upgrade cycle!
I wouldn't get too excited about the adapters, the autofocus is really hit or miss, as is the lens performance
IF you have a look then some lenses seem to autofocus well but other really struggle, e.g. most of the 50mm lenses are useless

And then there is the general problem if wide angle lenses:

You really want to be looking at native lenses if you are serious.
And if you really want to go small then you need a smaller sensor, the Sony FE lenses are the same size as canon, actually the 70-200mm f/5.0 is bigger and heavier which is not surprising because the Sony will need a longer barrel to make up the shorter flange distance.
Sony needs to hurry up and release some compelling lenses
