Default What Do You Wish Your Camera Could Do?

HEY,

I'm having some fun on thinking about what I wish my camera could do but can't.

At first I was thinking about things like I wish it could grow more megapixels, make phone calls, reply to blog comments, ect. I'm making it more of a fun question but it could be looked at from a serious point of view too.


So what do you wish your camera did but can'?

Upgrade by simply connecting to the internet and downloading a newer, better one, lol.

Cleaning my house would be a plus.

LESS.

These days, they keep adding more and more features that I am not really interested in.

I don't need an HD video mode... I need more frames per second at full resolution.
I don't need in camera scene modes.. I need a better manual to tell me how to use the camera to get the shot that I want.
I don't need art filters or picture modes.. they will never look as good or give me the control that I get from photoshop.
I don't need GPS.. I have a map and a education. There is about a 99% chance that I know where I was when I took the picture.
I don't need a button on the outside of the camera for every function the camera has. For every one time that it has been useful, there has been several when it has just been in the way.

Ok.. me and my dinosaur will slowly walk away now.
