Originally posted by Gimbal It would be slightly disappointing to remove the bracketing button and add a picture style button.
Bracketing seems more practical, but I'm still just not used to the idea of the camera bracketing *for* me, anyway. Even when bracketing, I pick my shots, so I may as well have a dial to turn for that.
A button to make do what *you* want would be even more welcome to me. I'd probably use it to toggle my in-camera monochrome settings on and off: I'm still relying on that to get me results rather than try and remember what I wanted when I shot while fussing with my old computers. When I was toting my little old Lumix around, I actually used the scene mode spot on the dial a lot, (usually set to 'snow:' that actually tended to give me good results when I couldn't *see* too well. (I never did figure out a good way to stick an eyecup on an FZ-7, but I was working on it. Didn't *always* work, but the 'snow' mode worked in a lot of conditions where the EVF was hard to read. It was a lot faster than trying to use the manual menues, anyway. Less necessary with a camera that has more controls, but it's just a little programming, and I'm not dead-set against scene modes being there as long as they aren't in the way of anything important. Better yet would be if you could set things up how you'd like for later access.

I'd still love to see a 'panic button' mode, (configurable 'green' mode would do) where you could set things up to drop out of anything fancy you're doing, engage all automatics, and shoot for later press use, maybe optimized for leaning on the shutter if something suddenly happens. With all this automation, I figure you may as well be able to fire blind when you have need to.
