This is a great thing! There are plenty of options already from Canon
and Nikon. People should use one of those if that's what they need.
Why would it be a good thing to have yet another brand making cameras
like that?  I like my small, no frills Pentaxes that stay out of the
way while I  try to create art with them.

Speak for yourself. If you are walking around in a city for six hours
in a row shooting people in the street, camera strapped to your wrist,
size and weight become a big issue. When I do that I'm not doing
anything else, btw.

Give me a small istD with an FA35 over a 20S with whatever lens is
equivalent anytime.
