Eric,
My two cents.
When I carry anything less than a real SLR with nice glass (I own more than I can carry) any picture-taking feels like the convenience you mention, not serious photography.
I have never used a camera like the V1 series, but I have used smaller camera's like M-Leica and several Nikon Coolpixes.
When I did get a chance to hold an early V1 series camera it felt like any other bit of consumer electorincs, whatever the Nikon marketing-speak.
To get back to your question (...way forward...): I do not think so, just consider the users-influence on the picture-taking process and the availability of real glass.
Regards, Gilbert
