It’s not only about the new kind of input, it’s also important to give users the functions they really use and need in a way they can understand. The proficiency switch for example adjusts the whole interface to how experienced the user is. The “Settings recovery” function gives users the freedom to make mistakes, play with settings and learn without consequences. Also, opening up the cameras operating system to developers can only be of benefit for users and manufacturers. Although this project is far from finished, it shows some new directions of thinking about digital cameras.
