1. Even desktop computers and laptops have trouble dealing with an 80MP file. The IQ is doing all the processing in a form factor the size of a small book, so why expect supercomputer performance?
2. There is nothing to indicate (yet) that this is a substantive issue being experienced by the majority of IQ180 owners in a majority of shooting situations.
3. Anyone who sees this as an issue – or anything else for that matter – that won't be solved by PhaseOne is free to choose not to put their money down for an IQ180.
4. As Guy keeps pointing out, this is the bleeding edge. There are costs and compromises for choosing to participate in technology this extreme. See #3. If you want certainty, then spend less money and get a DSLR. But don't forget that even the DSLR manufacturers have released their share of faulty products.
5. I was thinking (and someone beat me to it) that ideally there should be a user-selectable option in the firmware to choose between fast previews that may be visually compromised and slower, more accurate previews.
