A Jupiter-3 isn't so very sharp even on an FF let alone on a Nikon 1 V1, which has a pixel density corresponding roughly to 73 Mpixels on an FF dSLR. However, it does surprisingly well as a people lens at 50/1.5 with a FOV and DOF corresponding to 135/4 on an FF but at an exposure value of f/1.5, which often more than compensates for the difference in DR. Compared to, e.g., an EOS5D Mk.1 with a small 135 mm lens like the CZJ Sonnar 135/3.5, a Nikon 1 V1 with a Jupiter-3 is much smaller an much less intimidating in addition to being completely silent when using the electronic shutter - people just pay very little attention when you are taking photos.
Here is a size comparison between the two systems, note that my 5D has been gathering dust :

A few shots I took in July at the Kuhmo Chamber Music Festival:
I took these shots in Movie Mode, which made exposure adjustment very easy.

I'm testing various lenses with the V1 and will be posting example shots when I'm done.
Meanwhile, here is another size comparison of the V1 showing why it, in my opinion, looks and feels like a "real" camera and not just a glorified P&S like the newer V2:
The V1 shape is very much like that of a FED-2, just remove the knobs and windows from the FED and sculpt the top a little bit. The Nikon S like skins which I added to my V1 still emphasize the similarity although the feel is smoother and softer than that of the Vulcanite covered FED.

No. Just like the small Nikon-DSLR, the V1 can only be used in full manual (metering and focussing).
Veijo has found a little work-around by using the film mode and then switching back to photo mode.
But that doesn't work for longer shutter speeds than 1/100s and is of course not as comfortable as a working Av-mode. _________________ Personal forum activity on pause every now and again (due to job obligations)!

Not yet, maybe one day although I think J-3 is better when stopped down to the same aperture. However, my main interest in J-3 is shooting at the full aperture.

Thanks
Well, there was no difficulty in exposing -- I just shot in Movie Mode, not bothering to switch back and forth between modes. Anyway, 16:9 aspect photos are good for screen display and can be cropped if so desired.

Still, for certain kinds of shots setting the exposure by looking at the displayed exposure is very convenient and beats all other ways, especially if you aren't afraid of a little bit of noise in the resulting photo -- you just toggle the exposure up and down until you like the display enough to take a shot. Here is an example of one kind of such photos (taken with a Summicron-R 50/2 at f/2 on V1) where the balance of the gray levels has a decisive effect:
and another one:
