Well, come to think of it, you could buy a nikon D700 and 14-24 to shoot static landscapes at base ISO and 14mm with. Or you could pay a lot less to get the same 12mp with this and the upcoming pany 7-14 or even the old oly 7-14 and get the same results. It would be a lot smaller and lighter as well. Given, it's less flexible once you start getting into other situations, but you can't say it utterly lacks any advantage in any situation. I mean, that's besides the obvious benefit of being able to stick it in your pocket and have DSLR IQ with you wherever you go, and not getting stopped at events because you have a "professional" camera, because you've just got this and a telephoto the size of your fist in your pocket.
I, for one, want one, but I really do also want the EVF.
