I don't know; it looks pretty similar in size to micros to me, maybe a tad smaller like the J1

Canonista, they were just deluding themselves on purpose to justify their m4/3 kits. You can't reason with delusion.

Next worry is availability. Does Fuji manufacture in Thailand in a factory that is underwater or not?

The X100 and X10 are both made in Japan, so I doubt that they'd manufacture lower end models there, yet transfer their flagship work to another country. Amazing what 2 minutes at the googles can help you find.

Keep bringing the hate, it's not m4/3 so there must be more bad to say about it. Unfounded, pre-experience negative judgement about non-m4/3 products is the forte of this site! We drummed up 10 times better retorts against the Nikon 1, which isn't even made to compete with DSLRs!

Shnitz, how is that question "the hate" -- they were just wondering about release dates? I think it's a valid question.

No one has really said anything negative about it, and quite to the contrary, most people seem excited about it, where they didn't about the V1. I wonder why? (hint: this is a closer offering, in terms of what people were looking for when they bought m43)

You might want to settle down there a bit.

I don't think this is the camera that most MFT thirds users have been asking for. I think there is a relatively small group in a loud echo chamber who want this kind of camera. No doubt this system will make a lot of folks happy though.

For me, a lot will depend on exactly how the camera feels in my hands and how large it is with the lenses mounted. From the pictures, it looks pretty big (for my needs).

EDIT: What I am trying to say is that this camera/system look like a real winner but perhaps not for the bulk of MFT users. It probably will take away a lot of the market for the Sony NEX-7.

The question for me isn't whether this will replace my µ4/3 stuff, but rather whether this will replace my DSLR.
