It was a strange idea - someone probably thought it would be the digital equivalent of the old 110 system. But it was seriously overpriced when released and was always going to struggle against very slightly larger cameras with a larger sensor (eg Lumix GM-1 with its 16MP 4/3 sensor). I bought a Q when they dropped the price in Australia to $200. No regrets - it's still my take anywhere camera. The camera plus the two zooms take up almost no space and, in good light especially, produce quite acceptable images (both of my photos in the 2015 Annual were taken with the system).
