For "great" I don't think Nikon 1 first, but a couple of features were/are still neat. IQ, as Studor says, shouldn't be examined at 100%. But the basic concept and the availability of longer FL from the F-system was not so bad.
Although, havin said that bit of touching them: They always failed to feel worth the price. Light, plasticky, made for tiny hands, sort of consumer camera for semi-pro prices (the V versions), the other versions had no dedicated EVF and made not much sense for interchangeable lenses if all buyers just get a kit lens.
Anyway, Nikon now discovered the "what-goes-beyond-Superzoom?" segment and will announce something like a 125× zoom thing (24-3000 mm equiv). So, if you get up early enough, you have the 3000 mm zoomed around lunch time, then you go back to landscape and will be right in time for a sunset @ 24 mm :lol:
