So yeah.. borrowed this gem from work... the AA was a little frustrating at first, but proved to be no problem. the camera performed beautifully!
this shot was taken at 3200 ISO... the camera has minimal noise (and this was after sharpening!)
some others...
I would buy this camera for $1399 CDN.

Can you post a 100% crop of that photo so we can see the noise characteristics? At such small size all noise gets minimized. Pretty impressive still.

It's on the cover of Popular Photography and Imaging this month. I haven't read the review yet, but I'll have to push it up on my priority list.
