Well, I thought this topic was dead. But, it seems to be going and now an idea.... if we did what you are saying, donaldejose, and used a High Definition Electronic Viewfinder with a 30mm X 30mm format, we could have a V1 with the definition of the D4/D800 dependent only on the sensor characteristics. But, is there not a problem with the live view and continuous auto focus that would need to be resolved?I actually believe at some time in the future, the mirror camera in which the mirror moves will be a thing of the past. Some technology which would allow a mirror to have a mirrored surface due to an electronic signal, then become clear when the signal changes, this would allow a standard TTLR viewfinder but would work at 60 FPS. Then the 30mm square format would be a no brainer, maybe combined with 36mm X 24mm. Did someone say D5?
Sony already has a headstart with the a77 24mpx at 12fps (sure the buffer sucks) but one look at it shows that when expeed 4 comes out the possibility of a TLR D5 is huge. In additin the fact that electronic shutters are creeping into dslrs proves that vdslr's and tlr's may merge at one point or another...
