    Im not expecting anything but many things could be improved: Adding a joystick, better thermals, improved EVF

    The R8, albeit not being a great all-around camera, is the closest thing you'll get to a perfectly small, compact ff and very capable...

    Just get an R6 Mark II then. If they did all of that, nobody would buy the R6 Mark II, you would essentially get an R6 Mark II copy in a...

    I really don't like the idea of turning the R8 successor in some kind of "retro-not-really-retro" camera. Seems like it'll mess the R8...

    I've always envisioned my dream zoom lens, and 20-50 F4 (or equivalent) is it. just not too thrilled about it being a power zoom.. i...

    Probably they reviewed the Sony A9III and decided camera sensors had reached their pinnacle of awesomeness and they could hang it up...

    I think rather than silver it would look distinctive and different if they did more with the darker gray color used on the RF mount and...

    I have been looking at the R8 as my travel camera. My R5 is to heavy with it L bracket attached and really not needed for those type...

    I doubt the new R8 will get dual card slots or IBIS. Basically a new sensor and updated AF, but the same limits to separate it from the...

    Sorry but I see this as a distraction and a bit of a waste of time, but that's just me, I guess, whatever turns your fancy. I think...

    I would like them to include IBIS so they could make their lenses smaller. It would also make Canon’s smallest lenses, the 50mm, the...

    I hope they don't appeal to the selfie demographic. They're already catered to by 95% of the market.

    Aside from the "retro" aesthetic, what are you expecting from the mark II that the original doesn't provide?

    At this point I trust Canon to make a good camera with decent trade-offs. I don't trust them in areas of subjective taste. I want the...

    Stabilization please. And a beautiful retro design - that is the point of this camera!

    Sony could do something.

    It's not as cheap as it should be, at this point. I want to pay less than I did for my 1DX. It feels like a bad deal otherwise.

    “On that topic, make focus peaking easier to see in all situations. There are still situations that I have hard time with it. That could...

    Agree to everything but the tilt screen. We certainly don't need another camera like the R100 with a fixed screen. Fully articulating...

    Very nice images.

    I hope they don't mess up the R8 with some retro BS and increased EVF bump. A little bit of styling is fine but keep the camera size.
