Originally posted by house Seems to me the fuji interface with those A settings on the dials is a functional interpretation but the Nikon solution seems primarily retro in terms of look.
The new Zeiss camera is absolutely not retro design but still use simple dials. The zeiss seems a bit trapped by the minimalism but if Pentax did its interpretation I think it could be great.
If it were to be a light and small body (for traveling light) but full functional K-mount:
Retro in looks only if "form follows function"!
Retro as "minimal features" just the real important features, similar as Sigma did it with their DSLR bodies
but no display but really good OVF similar to the K3III.
I'd be happy with APS-C but of course FF would be interesting.
If my eyes would still be as they were, I would even be interested in a DSLR with split-image focusing-screen and no AF.
But I guess hardly a market for such a minimal design?
