Olympus E-P1



It doesn't have a fold-out display but otherwise doesn't it look like my dream described in post one? It also will not have a 12 MB/s data rate but I'm still looking forward to see sample movies. The sample images posted at dpreview.com look really great.

-Large 4/3 sensor
-Micro 4/3 lens mount
-RAW
-Stainless steel case
-720p MJPEG AVI @ 4 MB/s
-Stereo PCM/16bit, 44,1kHz, WAV
-4:2:2 color compression!

Definitely interesting because of its size and quality.

First video samples at dpreview
I can't help but those look really good. There is aliasing in the second last sample but I bet the 5D mark II would also have problems.
