Yes, 1) but Canon need to be able to enforce their IP in a court of law, the track record in China is not very good. 2) The subject of...

I treat mine well, too. Love that lens.

Once you transfer the tech, leashes are useless in China as so many companies have discovered.

I baby my RF 200-800mm, which is my way of handling it properly.

I would think that patent rights are easier to enforce when you have them on a leash (i.e. under a licensing agreement)

I don't think so. If I buy a third-party cable release or battery or flash, I expect no support from Canon.

Canon will probably start licensing AF full frame lenses when they think it will be beneficial for Canon or they think it becomes...
Dragon replied to the thread Did Canon See the Writing on the Wall with the RF Mount?.
Licensing is more complicated than you might think when you add in the support angle. If you buy a "licensed" Chinese lens for RF mount...

Thanks for clarification. Maybe this is one "gene" they keep for their C50 to have some differences. If the price of R6 iii is 3200 € in...

It seems like the options up for discussion are (1) open mount, or (2) completely closed mount.
But there is a third option: license...

The 200-800 may not be the most robust design, but somehow, I doubt they broke in two if handled properly. The point is that they could...

I think this should be considered a successor to the EF 50mm f/1.4 USM. It is about the same price point (after inflation) and a third...

I don't see the C200 on Japan's list. Where is your list pulled from? I have about 20 C200s and I send at least two of them in each year...

And a new camera model is usually much more than the sum of the individual feature upgrades.
As an example: I did a comparison of the...

That's the thing, they're fallacious.
For instance, by your spreadsheets, the original R6 and the R6 Mark II would be rated at the same...

That's why previous models are often discontinued.

No longer a stills-focused camera and Canon wants me to get a refurbed Mk II. Got it.

I like to do these comparison spreadsheets for myself and thought it could be helpful to others. If I had more money, only a couple key...

Thanks(y)
Of course it is, and that's exactly the point: they could have made all these lenses with internal focus.
With internal...

Good points here. It is interesting that some feature improvements, perhaps even just one (the right one for that person) may be...
