I hope not. not everybody wants a damn polarizer in the way. specially not at night.I wonder if they have built-in circular polarizers
I will kill 6D II sales. Better not try one out. Once you go mirrorless, you'll never want to pick up a DSLR again. Unless I'm shooting long lens sports, I choose the M5 over 80D or 7D II most of the time. The EVF is so consistent and you get to see what your exposure actually looks like. No chimping required! And when shooting in dark places or after the sun goes down there is no better option.Oh my, it is aesthetically eve than M5. The proportions are terrible - cut on the right side
... yes, there is a finger space, but it made the camera look a bit out of proportions (unpleasant) imo. Too much space on the left side, when compared with the right side - looks like immediately cut right after the lens. Also tall. Well, FF needs some size proportions, but I also want to like my camera aestheticall and it looks a bi weird. Hopefully it grows on me over time.
I also wonder about AF points selection controls - the likes of joystick, AF selection butoon, scroll-wheel. The images are small, but does it look like a scroll wheel there, or more a Rebel xy-way buttons?
We've got 5DIV in January, so will have to think about. Wanted to replace 70D with some small/cute companion for a street photography. Will wait for the M5/M6 II. EOS R, on the other side, with the price-tag and its specs - I wonder, where's the catch, as for 1900$, if right, looks like it could eat the 5DIV sales?
Sony is doomed.![]()
Looks like the EF-EF-R adaptor has a version for drop in filters. Compare the cost of say a 52mm filter to an 82mm. If you lots of filters the drop in will be worth the $$$I hope not. not everybody wants a damn polarizer in the way. specially not at night.
Has the $1900 price been confirmed or is it just from last weeks rumors?
I bet that toggle with <> arrows replaces the quick control dial on the back. It also has the quick control wheel with selector button from the M5.I'm thinking we gotta have IBIS here and while I'm hoping for Cfast2, I'm pretty sure I ain't gonna get it. I haven't used SD cards in a while, but if the newer ones can keep up with the read/write speeds, I'm good with that. I just prefer a more robust card (structurally) SD cards make me too nervous with their small size and generally flimsy nature

It might use the touch screen to move the focus points like the M5 does.Doesn't appear to have a joystick to move the focus points. I'm surprised they would leave that out.
Also, given those specs, does anyone else think this may be the "high-end" model? It almost sounds too good to be true for a $1900 camera from Canon.

I wish we could get some higher res pix. I hope it has custom shooting modes. If this is under $2000, then yeah, I'm pretty much sold. I've been on the lowkey lookout for an updated second-body.
I have big hands and the M5 is very small, but given a decent sized body, it would work well. You can pick which quadrant you want to use. You can move the focus point with your thump while up to your eye. Think mouse vs joy stick. Very natural.Is that an effective way to move the focus points? I haven't used any EOS M cameras.
The 28-70/2.0 does not look too big.
Probably replaces the quick command dial on the back. Left-right, up-down, clockwise-counter-clockwise. It's all the same.Yeah, I'm a bit stumped by that as well. The only possible thing I can think of is a zoom switch for a powered zoom lens like the EF-S 18-135 USM with Power Zoom Adapter PZ-E1. Canon also has a Cinema EOS lens or two with power zoom.
I wouldn't think they would be introducing the EF-M 32mm f1.4 or make an EF-R to EF-M adapter. I have been saying I thought the M line would eventually replace the Rebel line, and I think these actions reinforce my theory. Don't forget there are strong rumors of a M5 Mk II also.I wonder if this foreshadows the elimination of the EOS-M line. If they're putting all their energy into the R line, it seems like it might make sense for APS-C mirrorless moving forward to be R-mount as well. It seems like there are already almost as many R lenses as their are M.
Well, they're supposed to be releasing an M prime, so not exactly a sign of End Times.I wonder if this foreshadows the elimination of the EOS-M line.
