25 Years of DPReview: 6 camera features that didn't make the cut (dpreview.com)

Several of these "should have worked" like the IR sending and the Android cam. Poor execution and I suggest IPR stupidity let them down.

I never got swivel lenses. I think it made sense if you came at things from a handycam video world. I came at things from a different world, and this feature wasn't on my wishlist.

I miss my Olympus half-frame. 72 shots of medium-terrible quality, and expensive as hell to get C24 processed these days, but it was fun. The tiny sony digital I had sort-of got there but it now has some crap in the lens assembly and fixing that kind of thing is $$$ mis-spent. Better to live in my Android potato camera.
