OK. Everyone is still talking about this rationally and debating it on the merits. Allow me to make a blanket statement:
This is a stupid (@#*$# idea.
Let\'s check back in a year and see if that\'s correct.
This is not a new idea though. Nikon already did it back when 2 megapixels were all new and stuff. They even look the same. I think it might be a good idea myself though. Won\'t this allow them to engineer the relationship between the lens and the image sensor for each pair - independently? Aren\'t there some advantages to be had from doing that?
Ricoh has always been a goofy company though. Their computer parts, their office products, most of their digital cameras so far... Pretty goofy. Goofy as in outside the box and good or bad, not following the herd.
I don\'t think it will catch on though. This design requires a high user level and high level users won\'t be interested in this format as a primary device.
