Hello you all.
This is only speculative!
I have the impression that new technology will change the cameras as we knew in the past, and found that some other people seem to think the same way.
This is the description of a future camera.
First, it will be digital, of course, and full frame too.
Since digital tech will be faster, it will have an eyepiece with a micro digital screen that will show the image projected through the lens against the digital sensor in real time. There will have an optical viewfinder too, that could be seen through the same eyepiece, and if you want you could have both at the same time, by splitting the screen in two areas, or by adjusting transparency. This new viewfinder will have a prism, like in the obsolete previous rangefinders, that will make a composite of the optical image and the digital image. By adjusting liquid cristal filters that could block partiallly or totally the light coming through the optical viewfinder, so that you could customize your viewfinder accordingly the shooting circumstances.
Custom viewfinders will be available too. Some will be attached in the accesory shoe, and will have bigger screens, some other will be like sunglasses where the image through the lens will be wireless transmitted to the built in screen for your right eye while you could have extra information being projected to your left eye glass.
Remote operation will be possible through standard mobil phone systems, which will use internet.
So, it will not be a rangefinder, nor a reflex, since all previous concepts would be obsolete. In fact it will have the advantages of both previous systems, and that will be the reason for the SRLens systems death.
Therefore It will have the M mount, which is the new standard, and will be able to use all previous lens, adding full automatic focus, by moving the sensor plane as it did the Contax AX http://www.photographyreview.com/mfr/contax/35mm/PRD_83354_3105crx.aspx. It will have a focusing matrix, as the vintage Nikon D3, so that you could decide where to autofocus. Manual focus will be possible by switching the autofocus system off. Selective focusing or perspective control will be possible by tilting the sensor plane, manually or automatically, by focusing in 3 points, as this article explains. http://www.digit-life.com/articles2/m39var1/index.html
All kind of lens adapters will be marketed to use all previous and diferent brands, to be used in M mount, no matter if they were autofocus or not.
