Still not sure if the "multi camera control" Means they are in perfect sync.
If it is just a millisecond then we are talking about a perfect 3d system.
Two QX1 with lens will not be very compact of course. More like a pair of binoculars but will probably fit i a small dslr bag.

True. The new software used in QX1 adds some features that are unavailable for QX10/100, like zoom setting and focus mode, there must have been a reason to add them, it would be strange if Sony engineers did not use them. I don't have a way to test it, but abwz could run a quick test connecting his QX30 and QX1 to a smartphone with the newest PlayMemories Mobile loaded.

BTW, if that worked, we could have a setup where one of the cameras could borrow some picture quality (QX1) from the other, offering higher zooming capability (QX30) in return

In my setup of two QX10 (camera1-WiFi-smartphone1-bluetooth-smartphone2-WiFi-camera2), lags are significant, a large part of pictures of moving objects is unusable. But then again, at least the piece <bluetooth-smarphone2> would be gone in the QX1/QX30 setup.
