$999 is a steep price to pay for a fixed lens camera. one would
be better for getting a digital rebel outfit for same price.
Is it F2.0 across the whole range or F increases as the zoom
goes up..thats typically the case.

the images contain no exif data. looks like he took with film camera and scanned in. a digital camera does help to review the quality of shots but most dont do well in adverse light conditions unlike SLRs.
