Any thoughts on this? seems as if it could become pretty huge.

I had hoped for a more exotic camera to show the power and potential of the new system, but I guess it makes sense to start with cameras that we already know.

I'm keeping an eye on this, but I really want to see through the Viewfinder to get a sense if the eVF is really that good.

Sounds like my-kinda-camera! :thumbup:

Iron, it's the same EVF technology used in their pro line ($30K +) video camera EVFs. I know this type and it's really great! It's 1.4 million dots which is pretty awesome! My A2 is just a hair shy of 1 million and that's pretty great. The two things combined and I bet you couldn't tell it was an EVF if you didn't already know it. I mean besides the display of text, icons, and animations as you use it.

Damn it tho... No movie mode and no interval time sequencing. Two big big misses IMO. Oh well... The G2??
