It arrived this afternoon and the battery is charging is I write this. It may not be pocketable, but it is a proper SLR the size of a Leica M and lighter. It will fit in my laptop bag for business trips, and when a second bag is allowable, it will fit into the same small Domke bag I used with the Leicas. And it will serve as a backup for my primary camera, the Canon 1DII. I am taking it with me to Alicante on Sunday.
