1) Handling. Coming from Pentax the Canon handling is so outdated. It feels I'm back in the 80's. There is no Hyper Program Mode (the FV is a nice try not not quite there yet) that Pentax has since the 90's. There is no green button so to get back to full auto I have to go to the touchscreen or dial thought the whole range of values.

I’m not familiar with Pentax’s controls, but I take it that you would like to be able to switch back from manual to the equivalent of P mode by pressing one button? Pressing the down or left arrow button in Fv mode will reset aperture, shutter speed, ISO and exposure comp to auto. Is that close enough to what you want?
