Nikon 1 J1 10.1 MP HD Digital Camera System with 10-30mm VR and 30-110mm VR 1 NIKKOR Lenses (White),2.0 out of 5 stars A Niche Camera for the Confused Wealthy, November 11, 2011

I guess I was thinking this could be a Leica replacement without the outrageous price. But it doesn't seem to work. Fast lenses that aren't really fast. Colors lost by a diminutive sensor. And the need to divine the cryptic actions with each setting, and the tedium to set them.

I ordered the V1. It failed to recognize the card on the 2nd use. And for some reason programs like Lightroom don't like NEF Anymore.
So back it went.

I think I'd rather spend less and get something that will fill the need for a top shot without lugging out the big guns.

Not a pleasant purchase. Even without the defect, doesn't seem to have a well designed purpose
