Um, lots of over-saturated Velvia like stuff. Didn't do much for me. Never 
liked the Velvia look.

I'm sure the camera is quite nice (if rather odd looking). I look forward to 
seeing it in person.

It's kind of ironic that I picked this particular time to get obsessed with 
guitars, isn't it?

I think I seriously have a problem.

Nah, in my experience such obsessions tend to 'cycle' in the amount of 
attention they draw :)

For me it is cameras, guitars and computer stuff ...

Indeed. It seems we're having a great year as far as new camera 
announcement go. Pretty much everyone introduced wonderful cameras and 
excellent lenses to go along.


I cannot help but notice this little fellow:
http://www.dpreview.com/previews/panasonic-lumix-dmc-gm1/

The only drawbacks I'm seeing is lack of immediate way to attach an 
external viewfinder and rather small batter. But, boy, this thing is 
slightly smaller than Pentax Q7, albeit heavier, but it has so big a 
sensor in comparison. In terms of technological breakthrough - I think 
this is the most important announcement as of recently. If I were Pentax 
executive - I might have been starting to get worried.
