Oh, a bit :-) Supposed to be hitting the streets (in the U.S.) next month. Price of $1699 for camera body, $1899 with the 18-35 zoom. A few of us got to try out a pre-production version last weekend at the Grandfather Mountain Camera Clinic. All-round favorable reviews for appearance, ergonomics and performance. Enthusiasm ran very high. I have some of the shots I took with it posted on my web site: http://www.robertstech.com/temp.htm Tom Van Veen, Bill Owens, Tom Rittenhouse and a couple of list lurkers also tried it out. Their opinions and many responses can be found in the list archives. Seems like a real winner to me. -- Mark Roberts Photography and writing www.robertstech.com
