Even crazier is that they are selling the V1 with both 10-30mm kit lens and 20mm f2.8 pancake for $399.99. It uses the same battery as my D600! I picked one up last week and really wanted to like it. I took a few test shots and felt that the image quality was only a bit better than my Canon s90. Yes, the autofocus is fast and it has an insane burst rate, but I didn't feel the extra bulk and expense was worth it.

The V1 is an excellent camera....... and at this price, why not! there is an 18.5mm lens, but not the pancake. The pancake is 10mm.

I want to get the 18.5mm lens -- 50mm 1.8 normal lens equivalent.
