So why does it have to be a SLR in the traditional mode ( ie with a
mechanical mirror )? Does it need a mirror to give an adequete viewfinder
view? Or? After all isn't this bit of speculation about what the next up
market Olympue E camera will feature &do?

After all Olympus are reputed to have redesigned lots of cameras. So why not
one more.

With a mirror in the light path the problem is where to place the sensor
thatis feeding the LCD display. If the sensor is in front of the mirror it
blocks the image in the optical viewfinder. If it's behind the mirror but
notattached to it then it has to be gotten out of the way before the shutter
opens. Unless the mirror is up it must be semi-silvered or have some means
topass some light, etc, etc. Chuck Norcutt David Carter wrote: Pardon my
ignorance, but why does it have to have a mirror? Could not the view from
thelcd display be mirrored into the viewfinder window? David
