i have a ricoh GRD and it is really not good at anything over iso 100
so anything that improves it is good step forward. i also saw this
camera in action @ PMA by a beta shooter and we saw some of the shots.
i think shooting raw and using some sort of noise remover this camera
looks to create good usable iso 800 files. for one thing the sensor is
a lot bigger than other P&S, also u can take look @ the sigma sd-14
since it uses the same "cmos/cdd" or whatever else it is called for
comparison.

I am getting one these
