Are there any discontinued or never built cameras that you guys ever want redone in a modern way?
For instance, Nikon was very close to making a Sony RX100-like camera with a 1 inch sensor called the DL with a fast medium zoom that got cancelled at the last minute. There was supposed to be an 18-50mm, a 24-85mm and a 24-500mm variant of the DL camera. I think they would still be compelling cameras today.

Overall it's crazy how quickly the point and shoot camera range shrunk for all the manufacturers, especially for Nikon. There used to be dozens of Coolpix models.
A modern interpretation the Epson RD-1 rangefinder would be very fun and interesting too.
What cameras do you guys miss or want a manufacturer to build?
Nikon D7000/ Nikon D40/ Nikon FM2/ 18-135 AF-S/ 35mm 1.8 AF-S/ 105mm Macro AF-S/ 50mm 1.2 AI-S
