My guess is that the typical woman buyer won't care too much about 4K or spending more for those 4K requirements (SD card, processing or editing power, software, time and effort for downsizing to HD, file transfer times..)

Is there a 'typical woman buyer'?

Maybe not. I meant the average or what the majority of women would do based on what I know. I suppose those who work in camera shops can answer that much better.

In my limited experience of women, those who are not interested in photography, if they get a camera, get one based on what they want to do with it. Those who are interested in photography treat it much the same as a man does. I think that is the flaw in designing an ILC directed at women. Essentially, women in the market for an ILC are the same demographic as men -keen photographers who are quite aware of what they are buying.

Let's hope so. Otherwise we will have lots of cameras with different colours. Wait a minute, didn't Pentax try that with their entry level K-x DSLR in scores of different colours? It seems to be a sign of companies about to fail, when they try to create miracles with cosmetics, different colours, also gold, titanium or bronze coloured bodies or wood-grip versions of cameras, but they still have the same old parts.
