Yeah, all this talk is great and it is fun to dream but Devious does remind us of that good point. Unless you doing professional work, or have a lot of money to burn, this camera falls into the "nice to have" and not "necessary" category. Great image can come from a camera phone for goodness sake! Personally, this is out of my price range even if it dropped to $2k. What is interesting is the impact it and future cameras will have on the marketplace in the coming years. Still, if $4K fell in my lap....nah, I'd probably pay off some debts with that. I don't think the prosumer market will dry up for a while, there are amatuers out there who don't want to have to worry about changing lenses and are happy with a fixed lense camera. The optical zoom range continues to improve and with in-camera and lense stabilizers, who needs interchangeable lenses? I'm not talking pro of course and I know the benefits of having many lenses at your disposal, but if you are on a budget, one does just fine these days.
