The DSLRs available today are spectacular.


They are huge and heavy, with no live preview and no fold out LCD
screen. They are like horse carriages with a combustion engine added. My
guess is that in a few years the DSLR design will evolve into something
more advanced and DSLRs will look less like film cameras.


In a few year somebody 'invents' a DSLR viewfinder that contains its own
camera for preview. Problem solved (for most part).

Other than that, I doubt that many DSLR owners want video chips as sensors.
Most people prefer low noise to weird folding preview LCD thingies.
