Would it be possible to add the estimated DOF value into the viewfinder for a given focal length, aperture, and subject distance? This is assuming the lens is able to determine the estimated subject distance. I know that I've seen distances in some of my EXIF data, but I don't know if all lenses record this info. I think the feature would be most useful in assuring adequate DOF when using lenses with large apertures such as the 85 f/1.2, 50 f/1.2, 135 f/2, etc.
