Canon Will Continue to Expand the RF Lens Lineup at 6 to 8 Lenses a Year

Sigma and co. are focusing on APS-C because there is a huge gap in the market.
I somewhat agree. However, judging from Sigma's lens mount conversion service, the additional effort and cost to port their existing FF lenses to Canon RF is pretty trivial. As I recall, they quoted me about $250 per lens to convert two lenses from EF-M to RF and that included removing old parts and putting in new replacement parts. How much more could it cost to make all their existing FF lens in RF mount also? I don't know exactly why Sigma doesn't do it but Canon saying/implying that it's all Sigma's and Tamron's fault just seems like manipulative BS. Craig may be right that Sigma doesn't have the factory capacity now but I think Sigma would somehow make it work even if it means adding onto their factory and hiring more people.

canon r7 keep or sell...

that was what MPB offered me. Thank you I don't need to sell it and I don't want to be robbed. I think their offer on the lens is a bit off as well. Any suggestions for places to sell as the seller not through mpb or others. I just looked on line and the r7 body is selling for 1,139. so 800 isn't that horrible and I am no worried of a flood of r7's when the new one comes out
