Commiserations. Lots of people have sudden dire problems from health to financial so if all I miss is a year's travel, I think myself lucky.I still have my EOS RP and the 3 RF lenses However, seeing that I mostly focus on travel photography and due to the worldwide travel bans, I doubt i'd be creating much content in the near future.
I'll also miss my trip to northern Italy this spring.Commiserations. Lots of people have sudden dire problems from health to financial so if all I miss is a year's travel, I think myself lucky.
Italy is one of my favourite countries and the Italians are among the most hospitable people.I'll also miss my trip to northern Italy this spring.
But, compared to the Italians' sufferings, I'm just "suffering" peanuts...and taking pictures of lovely little flowers in my garden.
And keep hoping that my Italian friends are safe and healthy!
It is in preparation of the imminent end of Q1 2020. Not a Canon insider but luxury and leisure goods are taking some serious beating.Received an offer email from Canon a few days ago promoting their holy trinity RF lenses and offering a discount of around USD$200. Said to be an offer "in preparation for the imminent release of the Canon EOS R5". Offer only valid till 31 March. Could that be an indication that the R5 will be released in April?

That said, $200 discount on what $7,500 package across a set of three lenses? That’s 2.8%
Ok that’s certainly a better deal at around 8% of discounting. At 20% Canon may start getting some traction with the current market.Need to clarify, its actually ~$200 discount for EACH lens.

some Australian numbers to consider:
Current unemployment rate: 5.1% - 700,000 out of jobs
Official near term unemployment projection:1,700,000 people out of jobs
that’s over 12% unemployment rate. Last time it was at that level in Australia back in around 1991-1992.
The R5 might be announced next month to be released in July possibly in limited and the R6 hopefully will be announced in late April/May to be released in June.
If you Google on the subject you'll understand what it gives that isn't just 8K oriented. For example you can after the fact zoom and pan while still outputting in 4K. Exactly what's being said about 8K was said about 4K and probably about HD. Imagine if Canon didn't push forward - they'd be DOOMED!I don't understand, who would need 8k, almost 99.9% of peoples PC's won't even handle 8k so what's the reason, it just makes the price higher?!
So I guess you are going to bring a trusty old EF lens to go with that R5, since there aren't any RF lenses suitable for bear country.I also saw a reference from the Australia site that indicated the R5 is imminent. I'd prefer not to be an early adopter but was planning a trip for the fall to bear country in BC, Canada and l and was hoping for the camera for that. However, the virus has us wondering if we'll even be alive let alone travelling. Like they say, the world will never be the same after this.

But I mean, how are you going to edit 8k footage, it takes a lot of PC power and storage, the best spect MacBook pro 16 won't even handle 8kIf you Google on the subject you'll understand what it gives that isn't just 8K oriented.
