Me too, buffer is better but they can stick the SD card up their Rs.
I've just had a read of the DPReview preview.
Biggest pluses for me:
USB2.0 (the article mentions a FireWire port later on but as this isn't listed in the specifications I'll take it as a typo)
Faster flash sync
They didn't skimp on the viewfinder
And they kept DOF preview.
Minuses:
No program lines... although I doubt that will be a problem considering it does still have aperture and shutter priority modes.
The size... it does look awfully small. It'd be interesting to see one with the new 40mm Limited lens.
I think I'll buy one if the NZ distributors don't go creaming the price. I might even sell my LX to help fund it.
