They will probably launch it before photokina when B&H is already putting pages on line. Albeit to early.

Maybe tomorrow. Ricoh love to make announcements on Tuesdays.

Indeed the product highlights do not make the Q-S1 any different from the Q-7.

However the list confirms the sensor size is the same and that the body has SR.

Nonetheless the Q-S1 could have an improved sensor and image processing engine. Maybe the diffraction correction feature has been implemented in this body.

Cheers,

I know. I explained wife that démos in shops were made with movies recorded on hard disks that are not available for broadcast nor on Blu-ray disks. Forecasts is to have UHD broadcast in 2015, though. I'm waiting...

The Q-S1’s unique Bokeh Control function allows the user to make the subject stand out by automatically assessing the relative distance between the in-focus subject and obtrusive objects in the field of view. Since this function simplifies the advanced, SLR-caliber technique of intentional defocusing, even a first-time digital camera user can effortlessly capture high-quality images with beautifully defocused foregrounds and backgrounds.
