I saw an article about a camera experiment which gutted the control
logic out of a Canon 1D and fitted an interface for an Apple iPhone.
Several apps were written that controlled and expanded on the
functions of the Canon 1D, and a mount was built into the back of the
camera to hold the iPhone.

It looked pretty slick and useful for some uses. I don't think either
iOS or Android really makes for the best in-camera RTOS, but as a user
configurable control interface, there are a lot of possibilities
there.
