Very interesting.  I was pleased to see the anti-shake.  I was concerned 
a full frame sensor might be a bit too much mass to move around quickly. 
  It will be interesting to see what happens with battery life.

Also interesting is the live view cut-away diagram which seems to show 
the main mirror in the down position with semi-silvering allowing 
metering and (maybe focusing) going on at the floor of the mirror box 
while a smaller mirror in front of the prism (?) bulge redirects the 
image to a smaller live view sensor just above the eyepiece ala E-330 A 
mode.  Well, at least that's what it looks like to me.
