I hope this 90D will be a major flop for Canon, forcing them to create a mirrorless equivalent immediately.
There is a mirrorless version, It's called the Canon EOS M6 Mark II

As we keep telling the sony tribe, there is far more to a camera than DR. I am sure the 90d will be a good camera but in a lot of areas(what many of us consider the most important areas) it will likely be a step down. Things like build quality and robustness do not come cheapHow do you know using a 90D would be a step down without knowing the true specs yet? My hunch is it will have much better DR than a 7D as well as other improved features, especially if Canon is considering making the 90D an amalgamation of an 80D and 7DII.
Maybe not this roundSo, we won't be seeing an update to the M5? Sigh.
They probably will, it’ll just be mirrorlessI hope that half or one year after 90D Canon introduces 7DIII just like they introduced 7DII a year after 70D.
One can only hope...
I’m not so sure.. I chose the 80D over the 7D2 and I’m glad I did. I may get ever so slightly fewer sharp images, but I can crop more and I can push shadows more. Which is a big deal in wildlife shooting.
Black Magic just announced their 6K pocket cinema camera with EF mount for $2500 USD. I bought my R back when people were still believing that it actually shot 4K. In fact that was the primary reason I had bought it. That will do as my stills shooter and my 80D as my back up stills shooter for the next 10 years. But with the new BM announcement I am no longer waiting for Canon to finally release a hybrid camera capable of 4K. I have very likely bought my last Canon camera.Who cares? EF-M is dead, and EF is not too far behind. If they made cameras that weren't 5 years outdated the day they were released, maybe they wouldn't be hemorrhaging customers at an astonishing rate. Just food for thought...
I’m not a video guy so I’ve never really paid attention. Does the EOS-R’s much maligned crop in 4k use a smaller portion of its sensor than a non-cropped S35 sensor?Black Magic just announced their 6K pocket cinema camera with EF mount for $2500 USD.

Sorry, but your thoughts seem to have succumbed to starvation on the ‘food’ you provide. Canon’s ILC market share 10 years ago was ~44%, 5 years ago it was ~47%, and currently it’s ~49%. In case you don’t understand numbers, that means Canon is gaining net customers, not losing them.Who cares? EF-M is dead, and EF is not too far behind.

I am a Canon user 5DIV and a Rebel SL1. Both very different grades of cameras. I used the SL1 for a trip to Europe and shot with it in drizzle one day and it never had a problem. From what I read the forthcoming 90D will have weather seals. My hunch is it will be a more robust build than previous models in that series, especially if there will not be another 7D upgrade. Just my two cents.As we keep telling the sony tribe, there is far more to a camera than DR.

Thanks for sharing yet another opinion from someone who fails to grasp reality.
Canon (and really, everyone but Sony) uses unit sales to determine market share. In other words, 49% of ILCs sold in 2018 were made by Canon, and based on Canon’s IR info and CIPA data, they’re still at 49% for 1H19.nope. It does not mean they are "gaining net customers". market share is about revenue, not about number of customers. Does not matter whether their revenue is achieved with 1 customer or with a million. Canon's had less (imaging) revenue each year for the last 5 years, they just managed to lose less than total erall market was shrinking.
Canonical, I hope you are not an accountant by trade. Let’s look at the corresponding EBITDA numbers for imaging divisions. Shall we...
that was my point. re-read your post.. you were referring to revenue as a metrics then talked about market share... you are obviously confused.well, you are obviously not an accountant. Otherwise you'd know that EBITDA and market share are two totally different concepts. A company could have 100% market share and still have a massively negative EBITDA. Or a very high EBITDA and yet a tiny market share.
Also, meaningful EBITDA comparisons are not possible for imaging gear makers based on publicly available data. It starts with the different businesses they lump into "imaging division" and does not end there.
