I'll bite on this one.  Use titanium foil on the shutter so no worries
about burning a hole in the shutter as well as getting 1/2000 top speed
and 1/100 flash synch.

How about no more bundles on the frame lines: I think I like my M3 so
much as the frame lines are really clear.  If you have to keep the
bundles, how about a unique 75mm frame line?

Why not put the rewind on the bottom ala the M5.

Put the vertical alignment screw back on the front of the camera instead
of that stupid red dot.

On the MP tighten up the meter so it is a true spot meter.

How much would it be if the main casting was titanium?  Much less weight
and possibly better rigidity would result.  As long as I am dreaming,
make the main casting out of carbon fiber composite.  That would really
take the weight out, increase rigidity, and possibly decrease costs at
this could be precision molded.

Since we don't know what the week will bring, other than hoping some
rumors
are true, what would you like to see introduced this week? What are
folks'
top five wishy-list kinds of things? 

Any thoughts? This could be fun. Rememer fun?
