Is the only thing better about it is that it's smaller? Do photographers just generally have tiny hands and no strength?

I'm toting around a D3000 and the reviews says it's like a brick. I'm just holding it like it's not there.

Bet the people who buy this give limp wristed handshakes.

Yes, but remember this is a medium format camera. Unlike crop and full frame, the sensor is roughly 1.6 times larger than the very best DSLRs out there. Medium format cameras are huge, bulky and not easily portable. They also cost about 20k. This is the first one that is small enough to take around logistically, and at half the price.
