    Maybe a more fitting analogy would be what's happening to GoPro... there have been cases of companies pushed out of markets even without...

    Does Canon make anamorphic lenses for R-series cameras? Are the lenses you’re referring to licensed by Canon (like some recent...

    Will there likely be a firmware release in the near future for any of the EOS R cameras that enables them to de-squeeze anamorphic...

    Yes, and you forgot Kodak that knew more about selling film than anyone else in the market. What paradigm shift is currently occurring...

    Thus isn’t the first time that canon and other dlsr (at the time) went through a fundamental change in the market. The rise of mobile...

    Nokia did know more than anyone else about selling mobile phones. Now they have 0% market share in consumer segment.

    Why won't this popular zoom range have IS just because it's VCM? There are both IS and non-IS USM, as are there STM lenses. The...
  • Exploreshootshare
    None of the other VCM lenses has IS, so this one won't have IS either.

    I'm guessing Canon will launch the R7M2 as a beast like the Nikon D500. Even at the price 😀

    i wonder how RF 105 f/1.4 will compare with sigma's EF version. lighter? has to be. faster auto-focus? probably, but will i notice...

    I was wondering... but then, the R6 body is really nice so was like who knows?!
  • Danglin52
    Sorry, I went temporarily brain dead and forgot the R8 was FF. I am going to blame Canon naming conventions since they slipped the R8...
  • DocInfoSci
    Man, I was skipping this one with the thought of VCM 24-105 = USM 24-105, except with a VCM. No overwhelming shift in capability — for...

    I've still got my FD lenses. And an Ed Mika adapter, but unfortunately the 600 never did focus to infinity (on EOS) even going past the...
  • neuroanatomist
    Ah yes, when your opinion is challenged and data to support your assertions are requested, you fall back on ad hominem attacks. I take...

    more cinema eos please!
  • twoheadedboy
    No one has bullied you. It was fair to ask for some kind of data which backs your assertions, and you didn't provide any. If you're just...

    As I said above, the pushback usually amounts to ad hominem and/or a tantrum. People politely disagreeing with you - and I cannot see...
  • roby17269
    When is a 135 1.8 useful? When 85 is too short and 200 is too long and 2.8 is too slow ;) Seriously though, as most primes, it is a...
  • Zadak
    Ah yes, the 2 bullies in charge are hard at work here. Canon is still a very large company and will take years for them to take a hit...
  • S
    I don't think that's a fair representation. I think there's a bunch of longstanding forum members who have seen it all before, and a...
  • neuroanatomist
    Well then, I’m sure you can support your assertion that Canon’s consumer imaging profit is dropping because it is, “…getting more and...
