Mark,

What you see in this image is the difference between camera motion blur and 
subject motion blur and I'm sure you recognize that.  This camera/lens 
combination becomes, effectively, a close-focusing 70mm with in-camera IS. 
The stationary flower is very sharp, but the bee's motion is obvious.  I 
find it to be a happy combination for the types of photos that I like to 
make.

It also weighs very little more than my favorite Leica IIIf RD with a good 
50mm and external finder.
