The Sony Cybershot DSC-R1 should be the best option but 
doesn't get above 3 frames per second, but no raw mode then 
and the camera has no anti-shake. I think you will have to 
wait a bit longer till the Sony KM marriage is there.

Better dynamic range in sensors is more promising and may not 
be that long away:
