I may be chiming in a little late but I completely agree with Richard. I saw the problem immediately.
It was very obvious when panning across a crowd of people. Pretty much anytime you move the camera too quickly the image goes to mush. It is completely unusable when this happens. I shoot mostly hand held and I don’t think i will be making the jump to this new camera. In defense of the EX it does look great when you move very slowly and I was very impressed with the colors and resolution.
Not to be mean but if you didn’t notice this as a problem your just not looking with a critical eye. It is very obvious and something Sony will have to deal with at some point.
