Some ‘issues’ with the MX-1 concept

The GX attachable evf was the greatest idea but let down by it's low-resolution implementation and it's fiddly nature when carried around fitted. Ricoh, first with the idea, abandoned the concept only to have it adopted by others then brought it back for the GXR. It is still fiddly and "breakable" when fitted but I agree that a universal non-model specific port that could work with a standard hot shoe fitting would allow the GXR evf to plug into the Pentax Q for those that might need one. I have no problem with that, it would not require a special Q-evf nor I presume not cost that much to engineer the port into the Q body shape. More universal capability of use should bring the cost of these devices down to something closer to acceptable.
