Except, that the aperture shutter and focus all were controlled by
different rings. Primary functions should have dedicated controls.

That is how it was originally done. All the controls were on the lens
and about the only thing on the body was the shutter release and film
advance.

I was playing with a friends Canon S90 last weekend and it has a
control ring surrounding the lens that can be used for manual focus as
well as controlling aperture, shutter speed etc.
Yuck!

Most point and shoots don't have focus rings, or an easy method of manual
focus. Look how well that works out. We have so much to look forward to.

It'll certainly have a focus ring.
Here's a question for the peanut gallery: How long before someone
makes a lens that *doesn't* have a focusing ring? For casual shooters
who never take the camera off auto focus. Given the continuing drive
to shave costs wherever possible, I'll bet someone does it. My money
is on Canon for DSLR's and Panasonic for EVIL cameras. Place your
bets!
