I concur with those points. I might accept a "DL-build" camera if it were 10 megapixels or more. I might accept a 9 megapixel camera if it had the build of the ist-D. I wouldn't consider this camera unless it was really inexpensive. (Who knows?) Still, this thing is a hell of a start considering the partnership was only announced in October. They must have has a lot of preliminary work done, but it's still impressive. Samsung is a big league player and capable of very short design-to-production cycles. I'm looking forward to more! -- Mark Roberts Photography and writing www.robertstech.com
