I'm not sure I'm thrilled with it.
Funny, I was thinking that this was exactly where things were going if
you want to optimize registration distance for each lens. The
difference being that I was figuring that they'd do it first at the
high end of the market, optimizing a $2,000 body for a $15,000 lens.
I've been thinking for some time of a modular camera system allowing you to
interchange the lenses, the sensors units and the viewfinders independently.
A fast contrast-detect AF system (a la Panasonic) would solve any tolerance
problem in positioning the interchangeable sensor units and the lenses.
