Oooh aperture control during recording! Sexy! Now they need to start making SLRs that can do slow-mo hi def capture, like the Casio 1200FPS camera can. And for god's sake make that thing look like a rangefinder, not an SLR! Micro 4/3rds is supposed to be micro! MIII-CRO!!! It's the first word in the format. C'mon. No reason to keep making them big with a fake pentaprism housing. The whole point was to get rid of that. *sigh* /rant
@gloveofpower: A big part of the advantage of this size and shape for a camera is the ability to stabilize it when hand holding. By putting the camera to your eye, and pulling your elbows in, you can get pretty stable, compared to holding it at arms length and having it wave in the breeze. Handy for shooting video or high zoom levels.
@Crescent: Yeah, decoding flash video is processor-intensive as it is -- throw in higher resolution and some postprocessing and even my relatively new MacBook heats up.
@John Herrman: My powerbook G4 1.33ghz 12" cried for mercy under the pressure of trying to decode this. I had to put it into SD to watch it. I very much enjoyed this video. Seeing this and the previous video shot with the 5D mkII I want this camera.
