The pictures of the lenses I have seen show no apparent location nor "gear 
work" for T+S operation.  It could be done in SW in the camera, or later, in 
the downloading SW.  Or internally in the lens housing.
He also claims the T+S info will be part of the exif ( ?) file so PS will be 
able to do something with it.

Sounds pretty fantastic.... but then again, I was convinced the 24 F1.4 was 
for the S2......  This time I am waiting......

BTW, if this thing turns out to be a bomb, financially, can you imagine the 
R+D expense put into the S2, when the same R+D expense put into the R10 
would have gotten  the R10 out quicker or maybe a R10 at full price and an 
R11 ( Hereinafter called the mini-featured-R10... the "MFR10" ) at half 
price.....?

Opportunity cost is real.

He also says the lenses are all T/S
