Dedicated dials won't happen it will be 2 wheels like we have now (which is fine with me as long as the buttons are placed right. i can control everything right now without moving my eyes from the VF
Not a chance matrix metering will be dropped
only way it will be touch screen is possibly if its a MILC (and i think FF MILC is a high probability myself. it will make them distinct from the otthers and allow the smallest FF with full lens compatability (provided there is an apsc mask )
If it's Milc the tilting OLED screen is a distinct possibility (easier to keep size down with OLED - first Sony prototype tvs i saw 10 + years ago they were talking about being able to roll them up
)
Sorry, meant Spot A/F not Sport.
Its my dreaming up specs at work camera and I never use Matrix modes, don't really understand them if I can highlight my target. Every photo has at least one main subject, something that you want to highlight, thats what I meter.
MILC is not what I would personally want, unless the EVF was pretty awesome. I personally don't like touch screen. Turned it off on my NEX5N pretty quick. But it would keep size down.
I personally would take 3 wheels, ISO, and then the two dials. Replace the mode dial with an ISO dial
Then all manual.
Leave the green button on there.
Man, if it was slower @ work this week I would just sketch it out. Not that it would serve any purpose.
