I agree inasfar the camera should be able to meter wide open and have a DOF
preview button, but for that you do not need a DSLR. My main point is the
viewfinder. It is much easier and cheaper to build a G1-viewer type camera
than a new full-frame DSLR. Keep it simple. Of course it should cost much
less than an M9. 

BTW, the petition has now reached 290
