I would love someone to design and manufacture an enclosure for an iPhone that allowed for better ergonomics and controls. I think the Camera app is one of the pinnacles of Apple's software engineering, but sometimes shooting on my DSLR really makes me value how beneficial things like knobs and buttons. Obviously this might require using a 3rd party app as well, but I would gladly pay several hundred dollars for such a device.

>I would love someone to design and manufacture an enclosure for an iPhone that allowed for better ergonomics and controls There are several third party solutions that offer just that, have been for years, e.g.: https://icdn9.digitaltrends.com/image/digitaltrends/pictar-iphone-camera-case-wm-5-1347x898.jpg https://icdn9.digitaltrends.com/image/digitaltrends/pictar-i... http://blog.incipio.com/home/incipio-focal-wireless-bluetooth-camera-case-for-iphone-55s.html http://blog.incipio.com/home/incipio-focal-wireless-bluetoot... and even more mainstream brands...

I've thought about this a lot, it's certainly something I want too. I think a case with a dial in each corner for shutter speed, ev compensation, aperture and iso would be enough for me to consider selling my camera. Perhaps they could even be customised? For now, being able to quickly set one of these values depending on the scene is very important to me - so I keep the camera going for now...

The next step over from that logic is Fuji's XT-3 (and other cameras in that line) that have brought back many of the physical controls that have been removed from newer DSLR cameras.
