Quesabesde interviews Michiharu Uematsu from Panasonic!
Read the article in spanish or very bad (and sometimes funny) english google translation.
The most intesting points are:
“The budget and resources are limited, so you have to prioritize, and now is the time to focus on the Micro Four Thirds” -> No more FourThirds products?
“Removed the mirror, it seems logical that the next victim will be the mechanical shutter…” -> Cameras with electronical shutter in 2011?

Please!

4 years ago |Yeah Canon Powershot with CHDK can get some crazy shutter speeds and still have flash sync at very fast one still. I think if anyone did this for a interchangeable lens camera it would be a home run.

4 years ago |Yeah they can add customisable sounds to the shutter, like for instance… a kiss, or… a cucu, and a cell feature too, whith many ringtones, screen savers and games. Paparazzi will love it , they can play and send messages to friends between action moments.
I´ve seen this before when industry introduced 16:9 pc monitors against the consumers will, they anounced more inches with less functional area, reducing production costs. Try viewing your vertical pictures in it. Even in tv, people are still seeing vertically compressed images of remaining 4:3 broadcast emissions.
