->> Interesting concept behind a point and shoot. I wonder how much lenses with sensors cost when you want to upgrade?

->> Quoting the article: "And as the lenses slide into place, changing out the units is a lot easier than the press-and-twist fitting of a bayonet mount." Strange, I've never found that a particularly taxing operation . . .

I think the last sentence of the article gets it right.

As some of the replies point out, it could get interesting if Ricoh makes modules with large sensors and various lens mounts (Leica M, for instance), but without the lens.
