Looks like a decent offering to me.

Oh for a viewfinder!

trev, the VF's in these small compacts are so piss poor anyway i prefer they did without and made em smaller. the p7000 and G12 are good examples where the VF is unmanageable. this thing is like an s95 with a hotshoe which i really like the sound of.

So long as Olympus delivers PEN style image quality and not MJU style image quality!
