    I believe Canon could come up with a 300mm F2 lens, it would distinguish them from competitors and wouldn't cannibalise the 100-300mm...

    This afternoon I tried to find again the Orange-cheeked Waxbill. Looking at a group of ~60-70 birds didn't see it. Instead I found a...

    It's not 300mm F2.8, it's a 300mm F2!

    This should be old photo, they don't winter in Germany and the bird is in breeding plumage (they breed in Germany). I got some photos in...

    When in Bulgaria (2023) I tried to find it on a spot that it should breed (it's relatively rare species there but breeds on many...

    I think it would be great to see the R3 II be where the R6 II appeared to be headed right up until the III dropped. In fact, I saw the...

    I agree, this would be a head-turner in the industry and would make a lot of wildlife people happy if the images are rather clean. Even...

    I'm waiting for the 50-150mm f/2 for RF. Also I don't think they'll do a 300 f/2.8 just because they already have the 100-300 f/2.8...

    Looking at this patent application (2025-179579), there are a lot of designs in here that I found intriguing, but there are certainly...

    I believe that Canon has the technology now to release a global shutter sensor if they wanted to. They have multiple patents and the...

    How about Canon's first entry into global shutter cameras? It might just be like the current R3 but with global shutter and other...

    Yuge EOS-M fan here, Yuge! My M6ll is my most used camera, despite OM-1 for birds and bugs, R8 for full frame / night shooting. I keep...

    I don't see RF-S primes happening, Canon has treated APS-C with decreasing importance now that FF mirrorless cameras and lenses can be...

    I think the R3 line is a perfect body for those that want the grip body, advanced features, but not having to break the bank to get it...

    I think you're right--there was only one -3 camera in the lineup before, and it was the EOS-3 back in 1998-99. And like the R3, it...

    The reviewers would certainly punish any Canon attempt for 12k unless it can continuously record for 2 hours without overheating :)

    Tbh the only thing I missed from EFM is the EOS M/M2/M100/M200 size body, 22mm pancake and 32mm f1.4. The later got a equivalent with...

    There are a few possibilities that could result in a gripped high-res body. For a high-res FF body to be interesting to birders, it...

    Accepting FD lenses? ;) I'd love that 32MP sensor in an AE-1 body BUT they need to do more than "hey this is so hipster!" First of all...

    I think Canon has it exactly right. Sports shooters need high speed but small enough file size to get to the editors quickly! Pro sports...

    no but, the gripped body only helps handheld operation. as soon as a tripod/slider or gimbal is involved, the grip doesnt have much...
  • neuroanatomist
    Indeed. Some people conflate MP count and resolution, and some people think a 20-30% increase in MP count makes a big difference.
  • neuroanatomist
    Time will tell, but I doubt we'll see a high MP integrated grip body from Canon in the future. It limits the market, in that an...
