We would if somebody has a record of the amount pre ordered. But a quick search engine search would reveled the entire photo industry having and opposite opinion on the importance of the camera than you do Richard. The talk is very high on the camera. I cant find one single mention of it in the negative. Except your post here on the Lug. Its not too little late is a LOT late. The coming of full frame to compact camera bodies. Rollei 35 and Oly XA digitals in effect. Its huge news and everybody knows it.
