Touch Screen suggestion / idea

[Martin Weiss]

1) It would be cool if one could have a little marker on the EVF (or primary LCD) that shows where the finger is on the touch screen. (That might make it possible to use that follow focus feature even when operating alone; alternatively, have a little trackball in the side handle / gunner to the same effect.)

2) It would be equally cool if one could move the 1:1 pixel magnification around with the touch screen. Touching the centre of the screen would show the centre of the frame; moving towards the edges would magnify that section. 1st ACs would love it, and on one-man bands one could have two LCDs, one to show the framing, and one to show the 1:1 pixel mag.

(And I wont even charge 2 cents for it.)

Martin,

2) I totally agree here. I use that feature in Adobe Bridge to quickly inspect photos and check focus and other features. That would be very nice.

Another Touch Screen suggestion.

Either make an antenna, or make the touch screens wireless. At least the 9" since it sounds like that'll be the last one out.

This would be great for follow focusing on a jib or steadicam. Definitely make the AC's job a lot easier.
