I just did a quick look at the MX-1 on DPReview's comparator along with the Canon G15, the Fuji X-30, and the Panasonic LX7. Talk about a nice set of Oldies, but Goodies. They all are a little big for pockets in shirts or pants, they all have fast lenses, and except for the Fuji they all use a 1/1.7" sensor. Images are very close at low ISO. A really nice group of jacket pocket or small bag cameras. We could probably add the Nikon P7700 or P7800, and the Olympus Stylus 1 to that group.

The P7700 had one heck of a lens on it, and astounding build quality. Slow as molasses in everything though, I quickly sold mine. Nikon was so close to a classic with that model.
