are we going to the good ol days when dpreview are posting rumors again? Thumb up for dpreview.

what a joke.

The ricoh is very different.People love ricohs not because of IQ, but control layout. This coolpix will be the opposite.

sigma marketing is just weird.

what is new in this release? BH is already taking preorders at 999.

It may seem that way, but news are not posted chronologically.

when are they adding retina display support?

There's definitely hints of Ricoh on this camera. The power button lights up in green!

If Pentax were to make the exact same cameras as Canon, Nikon, Sony, on one would buy them. They have to be different.

There are cameras that exist to meet a need, then there are cameras exist to inspire process of photography. This camera is more of a latter than the former, unlike RX100. Sure, with 1inch sensor...

The camera's placement of controls reminds me of Olympus OM-D E-M5 and even E-5. Record button on top, compensation dial, wheel on back, and direction controls on back instead of wheel. I like it.

That's why Fuji is so great, because there are hundreds of cameras w/o OVF or good OVF. Canon G is so crappy.

Try do a 2 sec exposure in panorama mode.

Try do a 5 seconds exposure in panorama mode.

24mm wide angle should be emphasized more. 28mm is just... well, boring. That's why Sony, Oly, Canon, Nikon is losing with nature/landscape enthusiasts. Fuji, samsung, and panasonic get it.

That is well said.

This lens does not exist yet. Olympus needs to fulfill this gap. We have the Panasonic 150/2.8 (300/2.8) coming out soon but I have a feeling it will be ~$1000.

For me, the problem with this lens is that a high quality 200mm F4.0 lens for FF can be had for ~$500. And it will beat 35-100/2.8 in terms of narrower DOF.You also have a lot of choices for good...

Good stuff.I don't think there's anything wrong with telephoto focal length, although a narrower perspective gives a more portraiture look.I often wonder out with just a telephoto prime. There's...

If you want primes, you're asking for too much.Since I'm a prime shooter, I'd go with 14/2.5 + 25/1.4
