Size matters...

I just can't wait to hold that cold piece of aluminum in my hands. I think I'll actually sleep with it in bed the first few nights.

Yes sir I am a Ruski.

Actually she's raven haired and I like 'em short but plump in the back! ;)

Great photos, thanks everybody. I'd love higher-res ones for my desktop if at all possible...

Jim, what did you use for the lighting in these shots?

[Isa Totah]

I'm actually astonished by the size of the camera. I think mobility is extremely important and I was a little concerned about size at first. Wow! One question. The other cameras, I believe, are configured to shoot. Is the picture of the Red a configuration that one can shoot with? If not, what would the minimum configuration look like?

[Sanjin Jukic]

Wow, amazing! Jim it's true now for everybody that really size matters...

[Ace]

The surprises just keep getting better and better. I would never have thought the body to be this compact, its nothing short of amazing really.

The black color also visually reduces the size of the camera in an perceptive sense.

Bravo!

[Don Woods]

Love it.. I love the size I can already think of some pretty interesting things to strap that camera to.

For handheld use without the cage, The most compact configuration would lead me thinking about mounting the battery to to the bottom of the camera for optimum compactabilitationess. Kinda like how DSLRs mount the battery on the bottom.

Even though it would be more compact with the battery mounted bottomside, the smartest mounting position would still be the back due to the front heavy oritentation Red would have with a PL or still lens mounted.
