RX1 not really that expensive

show me any 24mp full frame camera with a Zeiss 35mm f/2 lens that doesn't cost much more than the RX1

show me any other full frame camera with a 35 mm lens that you can fit in a coat pocket

an NEX-7 with the Zeiss 24mm lens will cost you $2,296.00 from B&H - - the RX1 is only $504 more and you get full frame, and all the benefits that come with it, in what looks to be a smaller package

to the person who wants a small camera and wants the absolute highest image quality $504 is not deal breaker

if the RX1 came with a 50mm lens instead of the 35 I would seriously have to think about selling all my NEX gear and going for it
