I'd recommend the Nikon J1 unless you need the viewfinder or external mic from the V1, that way you can save money and possibly spend it on additional lenses!
Which camera do you recommend for lspencer53?
Nikon V1 - $500
10 MP|Nikon CX CMOS|3" LCD
Nikon J1 - $365
10 MP|Nikon CX CMOS|3" LCD

have you considered samsungs new nx200 with 18-55mm or maybe even the 18-200mm? it's small, compact, convenient and has some nice pancake lenses too. The image quality is really awesome. -

For general photography, Sony's NEX-5N is a much better option (image quality, low-light performance). The Nikon 1 series is good for only action/video works.
