Don't buy the Sony A5000/5100 for astrophotography

Where just looking at a5100 to replace my now worn out Nex-5R (+50.000 subs since 2012), so this was disappointing info. Nearly the same as with the definable telescope friendly Sony ILCE-QX1, that among others features lack a Bulb setting. Since it is a scaled down Nex-5T, why not have the same functions?
Whats left in getting small "cheap" astro cameras, it is to hope for Olympus new opensourced Air A01. It is 3/4 sensor, well, that's comparable when looking at SBIG and the others sensor sizes. As open sourced, one can only hope for an app writer to make a time-laps astro app, supporting bulb takes.
