R10 more compact than it looks in the photos

I was initially disappointed by how bulky the R10 looked in product shots and in DPR's video. But check out the specs for R10 vs M5:

R10: 122.5mm × 87.8mm × 83.4mm, 429g
M5: 115.6mm × 89.2mm x 60.6mm, 427g

So R10 is barely bigger than the M5 (the 23mm higher depth figure is due to the substantial grip, which is great for me), and has basically the same weight. Most impressively, the R10 is actually shorter than the M5, in spite of having a much bigger mount! The two RF-S lenses are almost identical in size to the EF-M counterparts, so the R10 is basically the M5 mark II some of us had been begging Santa for for years.

My impression of R10 has officially changed from "meh" to "Canon, please release an RF-S 22mm F2 and an RF-S 11-22mm ASAP, then shut up and take my money."
