Interesting! I like its 28mm-420mm lens and dual lcd. 3.5" some more...wouldn't that be very big camera liao?
1sec startup is really very slow! :thumbsd:

wow! the specs look pretty amazing I must say. if its image quality is good, it is gonna be a FZ20 killer. if it really has an optical thru-lens viewfinder, looks like an Olympus E-10/20 reborn with big lens.

1 sec shot to shot is not quite good indeed! But if it has a true TTL viewfinder, then its indeed a very worthy prosumer

From http://www.letsgodigital.org/en/news/articles/story_3081.html :

The start-up time of the new Samsung Digimax Pro 815 is just within 1 second and with an average of 2.5 frames per second the new model reacts quite fast!

The lens looks cool
It would be interesting if it's F/2.8 in all range and comes with IS/VR/OIS.
