I also want an option for a user to choose between fast yet noisy and silent but slow autofocus. For instance, 20mm panacake is quite fast but very noisy in live-view mode. But when I actually push record button it is now optimized for silent performance at a cost of becoming sssslllloooow. There are plenty of shooting situations (a concert for example where I get my audio from mixing console) where I don't care about focusing noise but need the fastest performance instead.

Also there is a time lag between when I tap the touchscreen and when the camera starts to refocus whereas half-pressing shutter button refocuses instantly. I need one-tap - immediate refocus mode. Shutter button is kinky as accidentally pressing it too hard stops recording and for reportage genres one-tap fast and immediate refocus is a must.

I love the gh2 but after playing with a Nex 5n I see some things that need to be added, like focus peaking, better low light and 60p (60p is the sole reason I got a Nex 5n for slow motion stuff).. The 5n lacks in areas also like no mic input, and the screen only goes up or down.. no flip out. 422 would be awesome, I'd upgrade in a heart beat if the gh3 added 422, focus peaking, 60p and better low light.

As for the camera body, its about as small as I'd like to see it get, I'd actually like it a bit larger for grip ability.. but the trend seems to be making the camera body basically a lens caps now.

Nice wishlists. This is what I think we'll likely see:

• Headphone jack
• 1080/60P

Bit more unlikely, but still possible:

• Usable LCD (Higher resolution and/or focus peaking)

@douglashorn

I don't have weather proof lenses. And the weather proof feature will raise the body price.

+1 for built-in timelapse capabilities with electronic shutter. 50/60p would be also nice, and I think we are likely to see that. I'd like to see ND filters, too, but I doubt it's gonna happen.

As for RAW, 444, AVC intra etc, come on guys, that's all just a mere percent in perceived image quality. Don't be fooled with figures. If that comes - which I doubt - with the SAME sensor that'd be an illusion of progress. Real headway means PHYSICAL improvements first and foremost. Better sensitivity, lower noise, more dynamic range. Less rolling shutter would be highly appreciated, too. But since that's a wishful thinking topic...

Holy Global Shutter! I summon thee, descend on us in thy glory!

@DouglasHorn "How about a couple of really simple things like: A registration pin receptacle on the mounting screw."

Yeah no doubt I think that was my first WTF? moment.

• better menu design
• afs is afs. afc is afc. duh

+2 on focus peaking

How about a couple of really simple things like:

A registration pin receptacle on the mounting screw.

USB mode for tethered stills shooting and processing.

+1 on focus peaking

All I need is a electronic first curtain shutter for astrophotography, 1080p @ 60 FPS, 720p @ 120 FPS, and 480p @ 440 FPS. Mix that with the 35-100mm lens and I would be a happy camper.

1080 60p and a better LCD would be a blast
