The upper right corner in the third video indicates a ZIESS lens... are those the knock-offs of Zeiss lenses? <wink>
GREAT looking footage! Thanks for sharing! Yup... guess I'm buying at least one of these puppies...

Sorry Jim. That was in questionable taste on my part. I only meant to point out that one of the superstores was indicating in stock because their website does allow that sort of thing. They do make a point of updating whether something is shipping soon or in stock. No offense intended.

There is a review by Philip Johnston of the LS300 at http://www.hdwarrior.co.uk that was posted on May 11, 2015.
There are some evening street shots toward the end of the review. He come across as being very positive about the cam.
I hadn't really considered an interchangeable lens cam before but it'll take some more investigation on my part. At the moment the HM200 is on my short list and after weighing all the pros and cons of the various cams available I'll probably be springing for it.
