Canon Cinema EOS C50




We do know the Cinema EOS C50 will be phototography capable, but will not have a built-in EVF or mechanical shutter. This is a video camera first.
The image sensor in the Cinema EOS C50 may be what we get in the EOS R6 Mark III


I was excited about the C50, but now less and less. Seems to me like an R6c. I hope to be in the wrong.
How can a 4K camera (even from a 6K sensor) that may not shoot photos replace a hybrid 8K hybrid camera.
That’s like saying the C80 is a replacement for the R5C. They are very different things.
I shoot 8K immersive 180 footage for Vision Pro with my R5C , can I buy this replacement camera and do the same?
Doesn’t seem like it. So how is it a replacement ?
The VCM line-up seems complete, except for the glaring hole that is the 28mm F1.4. Maybe, just maybe, they'll also be able to add a 100mm F1.4. I don´t believe a 135mm F1.4 would fit the size of the VCM lenses.
I will autobuy the 85 and still keep the 50!
My theory has always been, that the primary reason for Canon to make the R5C, was because they needed a portable/compact and "affordable" 8K videocamera for their VR180 lenses/ecosystem (where 8K/highres is important). So yes, I totally agree. C50 doesn't sound like an R5C replacement from what we have heard so far.
