What do we expect canon to give us in the future?

In the digital world, it doesnt take long for technologies and numbers to look old and dated, and the camera's are no exception.
I'm just interested in hearing what you guys think features and specs we can expect to see in our DSLR's in the future, not nessiserily in the next 1 or 2 years, just think of everything you can! :)

I think a feature i can see is true 3D imaging, to go with 3D tv's which arent far around the corner...


What do you think...

benesotor,

How do you forsee them arranging it, via a single lens through some clever electronics perhaps?

My own daydreaming has been much less exciting. I'm hoping to see sensors curved to allow for optical curvature, maybe controlled to optimise a certain lens and even a certain focal length in the case of zooms.

A while ago there was also talk of liquid lens elements, electronically shape controlled.

And lastly, I believe we are soon to witness the death of the SLR concept. Now Liveview has now reached us, I feel it's only a matter of time before we start looking only at a digitised copy of the scene, even through the viewfinder. I've grown up with what we now have and would rather they did not do this, but progress is progress!
