It is interesting that the Olympus entry into the DSLR market made this such
a major issue and now they seem to be setting themselves up to push the
hardware to the opposite extreme.
The specs have a section
Image stabilizer
Manual Function
input focal length 8, 10, 12, 16, 18, 24, 28, 30, 35, 40, 48, 50, 55, 65,
70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 100, 105, 120, 135, 150, 180, 200, 210, 250, 300, 350,
400, 500, 600, 800, 1000
which suggests they are serious about making it more than an auto point &
shoot with no controls.
I like what I'm seeing and if they keep pushing in this direction they will
hopefully become the big fish in a niche that could grow into a very big
market.

Do you remember how Olympus made a big deal
about how the 4/3 lenses were specifically designed for digital by making
the light rays as parallel as possible when leaving the rear element.
