Well, Sony didn't quite "get" it close enough for me. I wasn't aware of
the raw file problem and that's a biggy. But the specs turned me off
when I saw that the EVF resolution, while better than the Minolta A1
(which is gawd-awful and near useless), is less than the Minolta A2.
If the camera had a high-res EVF, say 800x600 or better, I'd probably
buy one. All the advantages (and more) of the E-330 for ground level
macro work but only barely usable in the eye-level viewfinder
department. Maybe they'll get it all right on the next go around...
maybe even with a KM lens mount.
