new sea & sea DX-1G camera announced

bhphotovideo lists this camera for 999USD (not yet available).

interesting points:

• weird hotshoe accepts an LED flash that can be used for triggering up to two strobes through optic fiber cables without firing the internal camera flash.
• wide angle starting at 24
• add-on wide angle wet-lens gives 16mm
• shutter lag time of only 0.1 sec (full shutter press)
• rated to 50m
• camera (most likely Ricoh GX100) might have the same ccd sensor as the G7 (from a post in a discussion forum)
• RAW (about 4sec write time ?)
• its battery lasts 350 clicks, but can also use AAAs (50 clicks)
