Here are the first images and specifications of the Canon EOS R and the new RF mount lenses
- Thread starter Canon Rumors Guy
- Start date
1) As you've already said, we don't know if it does / doesn't have it yet. We do not know.
2) If we don't get it, that's not like it means that ship has sailed and the platform will never get it. A7 /A7R I didn't have it and it was added in the 2nd gen.
3) It's possible that Canon believes that this first gen will largely be used with folks adapting EF lenses with IS (and 2 of the 4 new lenses), and that IBIS is a 2nd gen (or higher spec'd larger body to come
) sort of move for them.- A

All your EF lenss will be fully functional.
Nikon will have very limited functionality if any for a vast majority of F lenses. Including the huge number of AF lenses and who knows what others.
At least every EF lens I own will work just fine and a huge giant bonus I can now use ALL my FD, FL and R lenses with no optic in the adapter to degrade the image.
I am incredibly happy with this R series.
Way to go Cannon

People aren't referring to the kit price, they are referring to the US body only price.
The 6D2 is a $1599 camera presently in the US, but we think of it how it launched at a ~$2k price point. Many people believe that this is where the action is for the enthusiast FF market.
But not knowing the specs, we could have a D850-->Z7 sort of situation here, and this might be a mirrorless 5D4 and not a mirrorless 6D2. The sensor is not always a clear tell. We need to know more about the other specs first.

Niche for sure, but I have done (and know people who do) nature photography for the recording of species, e.g. plants, and it would be a boon for the later submission of records to central databases. Also, when hiking it would be nice to know precisely where each shot was taken (but I don't miss the feature on my camera, which doesn't have it; my phone does though, and that can be useful).

If it doesn't have dual card slot, I'll use it as my second body for wedding too and family vacation/engagement.

From your scaling, I would have to say that the R has the most “wrapped finger” space of your examples. Did not expect that!

Would have liked to see the M50 in there as well. Strictly for size comparison with the new mirrorless.

Do catch up, people.
Surely heavy as hell to boot. I'm geeked about the prospect of it, but I'm also wincing at the high 'reality price' that physics demands we pay for this.

The 28-70 looks like a tight fit for fingers on the right hand!

Well, apart from those wanting to continue to use their Nikon lenses Canon has some Pros and some Cons. There is the better AF of Canon, lenspark is better (in my eyes), but that doesnt change the mind of a Nikon shooter. Sensor performance is on Nikons side... I guess you‘re right. Everything will stay as it is as of now.
They took the sensor from the 80D and put it into the 200D, so I don‘t see why they shouldn‘t put the 5D mk IV sensor into another FF camera that costs less. Much more cost efficient than producing a whole new sensor.

Assuming the images are legit, it shows a 1/8000 shutter speed (and ISO 40,000, Bluetooth and Wifi).

Oh yes you're right, 2600$ was the kit price, 2000$ was indeed the launch price for just the Body in the US. Guess I was a bit confused by our EU prices.
2k for the EOS R still semms a little low imo, but it could be possible, well unless it's intended to be a mirrorless 5D Mk4.
Just a small note but the top screen says 8000 in all pictures, so hopefully not just 1/4000 shutter
