Rather, I was providing my impression of the article. I am used to consider dpreview website as a site with news (new product announcements, reviews, etc), i.e. the website where I am hearing about something new. Hence, probably, my reaction. The irony is that upon the first brief reading, I thought it was written rather heavily and not very clearly, since I had difficulty grasping/finding what was new in it.
