It's inertia, not necessity, that drives camera design.
If you look at a lot of camcorders, even the digital ones, they still look like the ones that need a space for a tape.

The newest thing is a video camera that looks like a SLR but records like a camcorder. We have not used them but our camera guy is giving them a hard look.
