(It is possible to learn from others mistakes). Slightly dished sensor is being studied. BTW, elimination of jumping mirror dinosaur (using high performance EVF) and sensor shifting AF (similar to what Contax did for their film) would completely change the traditional form factor of SLR. Talking about sensor shift AF, Pentax did XY plane movement for SR, and suppose they can do the same for Z axis movement. Doesn't this solve problems of AF speed, CA and other optical aberrations caused by lens movements? I keep hearing that Oly have been trying to break the mold (legacy) of 35mm SLR in DSLR design.
