Difficult for me to imagine that they\'d go through the trouble to create a modular VF, hotshoe interface and protocol for communicating with the camera body and then not innovate and release new accesories that use that interface after version 1.0 product. Particularly with regard to hybrid OVF/EVF that they pioneered... And that is partly the engineer in me speaking but also how I feel after using the OVF/EVF in the XP2. For me after using the XP2 OVF/EVF it would be a very big feature. I don\'t view the OVF/EVF as being only useful for under 90mm traditional candid photography as some associate it with. I\'m finding it useful in a variety of ways myself
I think it might be even more useful with that 44x33 sensor that would at least encourage me to try and shoot in 1:1, 3:2 and 4:3 with less worry about sacrificing too much image quality. An OVF would be useful for analyzing the scene and choosing a composition if one were trying to think in different aspect ratios. A different take on \'seeing outside the frame\' perhaps... maybe it would be modified to \'seeing outside the frame(s)\'
