Then It wouldn't be a camera under, it would be out of the system. - no IS? I'm afraid this could be. - No video? Well, if they are aiming for compact users, I don't think they will take it away (now that it is attractive for compact users to step up because the DSLRs,GH1 and EP-1 have video...). Not having video is what kept many of my friends from stepping-up from their compact to a camera that "only shoots pictures". For most, I agree with Eric. What he says sounds really reasonable.
