In the SearchResponse#hits you can iterate over SearchHit, and for each  
hit, you can get fields back.

Hi!

I have the same problem and want to retrieve only specific fields from the  
resultset, but i can't find it.  
My results look like this:

searchHit.field("title")) -\>  
Lorg.elasticsearch.search.internal.InternalSearchHit  
searchHit.getField() -\> same as .field

searchHit.getSourceasString shows the correct Result...

Thanks!
