who needs a p80 super zoom?! think the market is flooded with cameras like this (and muich better indeed), so what's the point of this?! we don't wish for super-tele-zooms or more mega pixels what lacks is a small body, with 24/28-xx mm zoom, a decent apperture (f/2), and a good noise performance (lcd twist out and flip is also a bonus) this is what much people miss, and i would love to see out there

Well, I could imagine wanting something like this for occasions when I don't feel like bringing my D300 and 6 lens kit... I don't like standard P&S cameras, but superzooms have some appeal for me. EDIT: Just noticed no RAW, only JPEG. That might be what keeps me from buying it.

I happen to speak to an aspiring nature / bird photographer yesterday, who was frustrated by the very high cost of long lens and dSLRs. While she noted that the entry level cost of a decent dSLR has plummeted, the cost of even a fair 400-500 mm lens remains out of reach for her and many others, even when looking at used, manual focus lens's such as the old tamron adaptall series.

For someone like that, a long superzoom with built in IS and good performance at base iso might be very attractive.

Of course the lack of RAW is an absolute deal killer for a lot of us. From my perspective - I'd like to see nikon, canon and others support "universal raw" DNG at least on it's digicams. If they want to stay with the proprietary route on the dSLRs then so be it (unfortunate in itself), but DNG would allow countless pocket digicams to support raw without adding to the pile of querky raw formats that ACR has to support.

Also depressing from my own point of view is the lack of acceptable wide angle coverage. For my own tastes, the old Nikon 8400 offered a nice zoom range from 24-85mm, with a pretty nice quality lens to boot. Of course, those were more sober times back when nikon introduced that camera.
