I really hope they don't!!! I don't want to have to take the camera away from my eye to switch from AF to MF, thank you very much.

I believe I could put up with that, still prefer the tactile feedback of a switch though.

If the photos real it looks like there is a switch for AF/MF and a button for AF mode

I'm going to stick my neck out and suggest the photo is a fake: look at the crude cut of the surface material around the bump. Surely even per-production models would be better constructed.

Perhaps the bump is a new housing / location for the focus motor to provide space for a full frame mirror assembly.
