Sony? this new 828 now offers a RAW mode. Supports Compact Flash, including Micro drives, in addition to Sony's Memory Stick. The lens is a Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* 7X zoom, f/2.0 to f/2.8. Looks pretty serious to me. Sony is addressing many areas of criticism of it's prior offerings. Maybe Leica's next Digilux offering will have a RAW mode and support Compact Flash.
