If you look at the back view, there seems to be a join just below the hot shoe, as if there is a cut out section that needs to be covered by the hot shoe coming down around the back. That cut out is most likely for an EVF or maybe “smart” OVF that can relay shooting parameters in my opinion.
On previous versions, that space was taken by a green focus confirmation light. It was quite well placed, because if you used the OVF attachment, you could see that light in you peripheral vision. It looks like they have a different solution now.
That’s what makes me think we might get an EVF attachment option. They had one before for the GXR, but it never worked with the GR.
