Looks like this is a good contender for concerts.
Small enough for security to let you through, but with bright sensor and lense for shots without flash.

Did anyone try this out?
I am looking for a new camera for taking photos at concerts, mainly indoors, and this looks like it might be a good one...

Some postings at dpreview have surfaced. Seems like a very good contender. No RAW though, IIUC?!

Some of those shots are pretty impressive for such a small camera :-)

Correction: it does shoot RAW images, it's just that not all third-party RAW editors handles them (yet):
