Canon interview: Confirms interest in making a vintage camera

Phototrend had a chat with a bunch of Canon managers. And there are two info about future products:

About a possible future vintage camera:

We really focus on the ergonomics of the grip, the positioning of the dials, the buttons and other elements. So if we were to do that with the design of the AE-1, would it really achieve the kind of ergonomics and usability that we need in a Canon camera? That’s the big question.
I hear you, and there is indeed a lot of demand for vintage-looking cases, and that’s not something we’re ignoring. We’re listening. But those technological challenges, as well as the commercial viability challenges, are things we’ll also have to carefully consider before we can move forward with a vintage design.

About future APS-C products:

APS-C is a very important aspect of our business, so we are putting a lot of effort into it. I can’t disclose any new product plans. We understand your expectations. Stay tuned—we are committed to meeting them, without disappointment.
