Prove it.
Take into account the entire DSLR market, and not just this
inbred group of enthusiasts. Give us the numbers, how much
exactly, taking into consideration the extra R&D for the camera,
ramping up the extra asembly, etc. In fact, please list all
costs of adding this feature, right down to the addition to
the owners manual regarding the use of non A lenses for us.
Then tell us how much more they could sell the camera for
before it lost sales based on lack of other features or
performance for it's price class.
Then show us if it is a win money or lose money thing.
You came up with this shit, now prove it.
Or shut up.

William,
I already tried that approach (though not as bluntly as your message above).
I got nowhere. J.C. was unwilling to put out any estimates at all. Well
J.C.? We're waiting....
