@BTM_Pix could you please shed light as to how this would help in the future.
If you ever decide to launch a hobbist camera project, I'd be willing to contribute some of my free time to designing the user interface module.
I've been an advocate of real simple UIs (User Interfaces), however with a balance of the things you need most often right at your fingertips at all times. Today I mostly don't like any of the user interfaces on any of the usual suspects in the camera business (Canon, Nikon, Sony, Fuji, etc), and I think this could be much improved if these manufacturers gave us tools to create our own user interfaces and be able to share them with anyone else; heck, it could be something as simple as designing the UI with HTML, CSS and/or JSON and then providing javascript hooks into the actual functions, something similar to this:
camera.setISO(800);
camera.setSpeed(50);
camera.setApperture(lens.getMaximumApperture());
timeToShoot = 300;
camera.shootVideo(timeToShoot);
etc
I understand that they dont want to give AF on the 5.4k raw. But i think not giving it on the 4k 60 mode is a bummer.
They know perfectly well how to hit you with the cripple hammer.
If we can get about 12.5 stops of usable DR with log, This would be a winner camera.
Now the only thing remaining is the price.
