That future will be sooner than later, this extract is from the Oly (sorry to keep coming back to them but to their credit they seem to be filling a wide niche) Camedia E-100RS fixed lens SLR literature: "It has a 10x image stabilized optical zoom; 27x digital zoom; and a dual media slot. But the most impressive feature of the E-100RS is its ability to shoot at a rapid 15 frames per second. Its built-in 9.5 MB SD-RAM Buffer and high-speed CCD and ASIC allows you to capture beautiful images at less than 1.2 second shot-to-shot speed as well as 15 fps in the burst mode (JPEG only), thus greatly enhancing your chances of getting the shot you wanted at the precise moment it happens."
