Mk7

I bet the white one will sell like hotcakes in Japan.

Richard Franiec is looking smarter every day.

And Nikon just "happened" to put the P7700 back in the headlines by issuing a firmware update yesterday... hmmmm...

Just wait until the Fall (Aptina to the rescue?!)

Heh heh, you got away with it, just like David Ortiz!

I suppose Panny's market research tells them there's a market for large "micro" cameras. Let's hope, for Panny's sake, they're right.
