- Add an Av/Tv modus like Pentax has them (does the same as your M mode does right now, if Auto ISO is on - and Pentax M does the same as your mode M with Auto ISO off), so you dont have to menusurf on even the most expensive Nikon cameras to switch the damn Auto-ISO on or off for manual mode.
- Change the shortcut of the A modus to Av, and S to Tv, so everyone has the same shortcuts for the same thing. Ricoh, Pentax and Canon all do this, so its kind of a standard now. Also, I think Tv is more intuitive a naming than S anyway.
- Add configurable U1/U2 on your mode dials, on all your cameras, not just the D7x00 and D600. In fact you can easily add up to 5 such user defineable modus for maximum flexibility. Basically this allows to have multiple preconfigured cameras in one and switch them very quickly. See the Ricoh GR cameras for a great example for this. On lower consumer grade cameras like the D5x00 line, you can allow to change the scene modusses (modi?) into user defineable modusses.
- Please give us a full frame camera option with a flipscreen like the D5100/D5200. For like 90% of the time you dont need the screen anyway, so you can flip it around to protect it and can just look through the viewfinder instead. For the rest, the flipscreen is ideal to still see what one is doing even at unusual angles. It would also be nice if said flipscreen would be somewhat more robust and not just full plastic; ironically my old compact Canon Powershot G11 has a much better flipscreen in respect of build. The shoulder display should be gone, too, to make space for all important controls near the right hand. The goal is being able to shoot with the right hand alone most of the time, and to never move the left hand from its position of holding the weight of the camera and possibly operating the lens.
- Please give us monitor screens that can be read even in full daylight, and with 3:2 dimensions. Canon can do it. So why cant Nikon ?
- Please add HSS support on your D5x00 line of cameras. Its absurd to not have this on a DSLR.
- Please allow the camera reset to reset to something user configurable, not just factory default
- It would be nice if Nikon would offer the equivalent for KatzEye screens for their cameras, so one can use full manual lenses more easily (old AI/AI-S, or Zeiss etc)
- About the sensors, obviously Nikon is excellent in this respect. But is it maybe possible to add a global shutter ? For better video, more silent release, higher shutter speeds, and higher flash sync speeds.
