Re: 3.5\

well i just wonder what does your camranger has to do with canon enhancing the display?
it´s fine that you are happy with your camranger. but how does that affect others?

i heard a slightly negativ tone in your post, maybe im wrong, but to me it sounded like "pfhh... that´s not needed.

and i was puzzled that when canon enhances features some are still searching for a hair in the soup.

What is the rumored DR of this rumored screen update?

Re: 3.5\

The larger screen could have something to do with the MF rumors...Phase One backs are navigable much like an iPhone.

I wasn't sure about a touch screen until I tried it on the 70D. It's DEFINITELY useful especially if you are using Live View. They'll never replace buttons. It's much faster to change settings with them. And try changing settings when it's bright out...

Re: 3.5\

If Canon had a 5" monitor I could plug into a body and use to navigate menus with a touchscreen, I'd be interested. A slightly bigger touchscreen on the back, right next to the buttons anyway? Meh.

Personally, I'd like to see streaming tethering. Right now, I can tether my Surface Pro, with its full 1080p HD screen, to my 7D. Problem is, I have to take a shot first to see the result. I'd love it if I could stream live view through the USB cable to the Surface Pro, and control the camera from there. Would be like having a classic large format view camera, only better (i.e. no upside down composing or dealing with ground glass.)
