True. This is an embarrassment whereas the other would have been a serious blow to the reputation.There's a lot of electronics companies in a similar scenario that would have plodded on and tried to sell a not-ready product on to the public.

I suspect that's the one of the three they might have done pretty well with. The other two would have been jumping into segments that already have tons of strong competition - the 18-50 would have been unique. But they were probably looking at sales projections for the three of them together and making the whole thing an all-in or all-out proposition and I can't say I think they're wrong to kill it if that's how they were looking at it. But, yeah, I think they'd have sold enough of those 18-50s that it would have been worth going forward with as a standalone... Or maybe that's just my selfish wants and needs talking.Aw man, that shucks. I was really looking forward to that 18-50... to be honest, i've seen so much interest in it online, i find it kinda hard to believe that they wouldnt sell enough of them...

Yeah, that's a different thread all by itself, I can certainly come out with some examples of not-ready cameras I've owned.Ahem...
The EOS M sells pretty well overall, just not in certain places like the US.Wow, that is something we don't see often. But I suppose that is the risk when established players stay out of a new sector for too long - it can become too hard to elbow your way back in. Wonder how long Canon will persist with the EOS M?
I was hoping to get the 24-85. Assuming the AF was as good as the Nikon 1, but in a smaller package, and with the touch screen that Sony refuses to implement, the camera seemed like a winner to me. It seemed to combine everything that is best in the Sony RX100 series (except for built-in EVF), Panasonic LX10 and Canon GX7.
28 or 35?I would like to see Nikon produce a Coolpix full size sensor to compete with Sony RX1 or Leica Q.
