Hi everybody,
since apparently Ricoh did not abandon, the idea at least, of a future upgrade to the Q system I was wondering what would you like to see implemented in such a camera.
I have made a handy poll to see which technologies you would like to see implemented.
Personally here goes my 2 cents:
Personally I would split the Q into 2 segments, 1 consumer (i.e. smartphone nerd) and one prosumer.
The consumer model would essentially focus on features like wifi implementation (NFC, etc...), filters, in camera editing, colorful bodies, etc... and the prosumer would focus on features such as weather sealing, video, slightly higher resolution, etc...
Features I really would like to see in the future iteration regardless (and it wouldn't cost Pentax much to implement it) are in no particular order:
- Tilty screen like in the K-1 to keep it snug
- Pop-up (pop-out) EFV
- Touch screen
- Weather sealing
- Pixel shift (is a must)
- Astrotracer
- GPS
- On sensor phase-detect
Most of the tech Pentax already possesses so there is not much R&D involved to get this working.
Thanks for keeping the conversation going ....
