Just curious if people are going to pre-order. For me, the combination of price and time frame (I wanted it for fall photos) has caused me to not pre-order it.

I find it a little amusing that everyone that was screaming for DPAF sensor .. and EVF built in .. expected the damn thing cheap.

and now are going .. WTH with the price. what the heck did you expect.

I'm glad to see this cheaper than the 80D with 80D's tech in it.

and I'm sure it will drop in USA at least in 2017.

November 30th kind of sucks. but for me .. I need the manual and more nitty gritty details on that sensor than what is being provided.

I wasn't surprised to see the body only price to be about the same as the Sony A6300. Though, with an 80D type sensor in the M5, I think its stills IQ/DR/high ISO capability might be closer to the A6000 than the A6300. Not that there's anything wrong with that, I still use my A6000 for up to ISO400. Hopefully the M5 will prove to be worth its price.
