Phew! I'll take "boxy" all day long over "crappy".

I'm not speculating, I'm just wishing. I don't know.

I hope "boxy" means EOS Mish.

Most boxes don't have humps...

"Canon is coming with a video focused APS-C camera"

Good. Canon needs something to compete with the APS-C vlogging cameras Sony ZV-E10 II and Nikon Z30.

Let‘s see, how the box looks like.
And what options it offers. (attachable EVF?)

Mine do, after I've filled them with everything I want in them...

We did have some fun with the cinderblock RF 28-70 f/2L USM mounted to it.

I´d like to know how that went using the magnificent 28-70mm F2 on a EOS R can be troublesome, but on the R50??? Kinda like an original VW beetle with 400 HP Porsche motor

Would something comparable to the Sony FX30 be too much to hope for?

These current set of crop bodies are certainly useful but they are definitely not awesome. I actually despise them...lazy designs, cheap buttons, and just chunky funky.

An m62 in a smallrig cage just wipes the floor with the r10/50 designs. And feels more modern to boot.

I did a overview of them at B&h the other day. No thanks. And none of them can to fit in my smallest camera bag for M50+ 22 f2. Just design fails all around. Too chunky.

If using gimbal, I think they can release R100 V with R5 sensor!!

I find the larger cameras easier to hold, my 90D feels easier hold for me then my old smaller and lighter 700D.

I find the larger cameras easier to hold, my 90D feels easier hold for me then my old smaller and lighter 700D.

For me, it depends on the lens. I have no problem holding my M6II with an EF-M lens on it, but my R8 with something like the RF 100-500 is unwieldy. That's why I use an integrated-grip body as my primary camera.

Worse outcome : R50 without EVF

Expected outcome : R50 without EVF, upgrades to a newer APS-C 26~3x MP BSI, clog2 capabilities. Sits at $700~900 pricing with a stronger sibling coming out later.

Best scenario : The rumoured stacked APS-C CMOS in a R50 size with IBIS, no EVF, gets R5ii AF, 20~30fps stills, clog2, 4k60 oversampled, 4k120/2k240 subsampled... For a price of an discounted R8.

And... All white R50s should mount with RF 1200mm f8L

An FX30 equivalent? Hopefully with rumoured affordable Cine lenses to come.
Waiting on the rumoured Mini-Cine, a boxy R5C?, with C400 sensor. The FX3 equivalent with better ergonomics as my B-cam to my C80.

 

[John Wilde]

Would something comparable to the Sony FX30 be too much to hope for?

Yes. My baseless speculation is that it will be more like the Sony Sony ZV-E10 II and Nikon Z30.
