Cheap plastic body, no EVF. What a horrible camera. Sheesh.

Sounds impressive, but will the AF work?


Sorry, you will have to wait for that.

Talk about a pointless feature!


white balance bracketing is nothing new. one of the first cameras that
i recall having it was the nikon coolpix 995 nearly ten years ago. it
can be useful when shooting jpeg, where altering white balance after
the fact doesn't work that well. it's obviously not needed when
shooting raw.

I'm more interested in its extended ISO - up to ISO 102,400!


agreed.

Yeah, just shoot RAW. I am guessing it takes one exposure and then
converts it into several JPEGs with different color temps? Anyone know?

Sounds like it could capture a black hole!

The desire for very high ISOs is the desire of a pure amateur. Pro's have
gotten by just fine on ASA25 to ASA64 all their lives. Rarely will I find a
need for ISO200. Even in fast-action sports settings or capturing birds on
the wing. Nothing more than that is needed in the hands of someone with
talent and expertise. Only base amateurs need high ISOs because they don't
know how to use a camera properly in the first place. It's just one more
setting they can add to their auto-everything Point and Shoot DSLR's
arsenal of mediocrity so that the camera will hopefully compensate for
their lack of skill and talent. That's all it is and will ever be.
