Richard, first I would try to find out about the software and ant its user
interface, then see what the camera offers, if the software (on your PC/mac)
is not good, it is like having a great tool that u can't use. 

 you can always send it to japan for service but these things have a short
lifespan (at least perceived)

But B.D., if you stick the world class 50/1.4 Summilux 1.4 ASPH ($2700?), 
for only $5400, you get the best ~74/1.4 camera the world has ever seen. If 
that doesn't convince your skeptical mind, I don't know what will!!!

:-)

There is a rumor release date of 7/22 in Japan, which is during the time I 
will be there. The only tricky part is if I buy it in Japan, how would I 
get it serviced if needed?
