Weaknesses:
This camera was unvieled at Photokina 06 and is not yet available , although some retailers are taking preorders and deposits, it should be in the shops from early 2007. Built arround the Nikon D200 body early reports indicate that it will be a very capable piece of kit which will give the Nikon a run for its money.
