Interesting, but what we are talking about here is evolution of the camera.  Manufactures are already doing this with mirrorless 

Canon 7D w/grip, Canon 40D, Canon 70-200mm f2.8 IS L Canon MPE 65mm f2.8 macro; Sigma 70-300mm f2.8; Sigma 150mm f2.8 macro; Sigma 8-16mm f4.5-5.6

Some great historical footage of camera ads! Thanks for sharing.

From drawings on cave walls to todays mirror-less movement, the ability to capture life in a single moment will continue to evolve. Look especially to wearable products such as Google Glass to be a part of that evolution.
