Excellent idea. This is the future.
Some of them look great, such as the first wine glass! Others reveal the weakness of the sensor to resolve all that the lens is capable of. The splotchiness of the second rider's jersey comes to mind.
For street shooting, I like the idea of transmitting to my iPad or iPhone, culling and editing on the fly, and posting online. There are some decent apps for processing black and white images.
iae aa eia: What's for to have a very compact body but big lenses? Olympus has got the right balance until now.
For my uses, I think the form factor is great. I plan to put legacy lenses on it, like the diminutive Voigtlander 28 Skopar f/2, or Canon FD 50mm 1.4, which fit the camera nicely.
klopus: No dedicated AE/AF lock??? If so it's non starter.
Always manual exposure, but focus is automatic.

Oddly enough, after almost a decade of full-time work as a destination wedding/commercial photographer, I've never used AE/AF lock. Not even once. To each his own, but Sony can start with me. ;)

I have to admit that when I heard the 10fps, I almost drooled. Video at Engadget,bottom of the page:

I'm thinking this would be great for street shooting and EDC.
Looks very appealing, the direct dials seem like a pleasure to use. I wonder how it would look with a Pentax K 35mm 1.8 on it?
