I sold my old dslr and have been on the preorder list for light. Wish them the best but am on the fence for these reasons:
- the demo photos, like you mentioned have either a softness like you mentioned or colors that seem a bit too vibrant. Would like to see more examples of action photos, up close macros, and night shots.
- no stabilization - in their talk they mentioned this isn't practical and they'll sell a stick gimbal, though it seems odd when a smartphone has this.
- the delays, it took about a year longer than I initially expected (preorders are shipping this July)
- My own needs - I'm realizing I'm not that nuts of a photography enthusiast lately for the price of the camera.
There's also some hesitance when reading the founders mit technology review article where he hints that the end user will do more things in post with their first product until they leverage an fpga/asic for processing (I think they're currently using a snapdragon 820 with an fpga for triggering)
Still rooting for them though since I hated carrying even a micro 4:3 camera
