Having used Canon, Nikon, Olympus and Sony cameras, I agree that Canon is the easiest to set up, and also the easiest to use. My main cameras now are Canon and Olympus, and the Olympus gives me many of the options that people have been discussing as what they want to see in the R5, but if I know that I want to be able to pick up the camera and shoot without having a refresher course on what my buttons do and how other items are set up, I pick up the Canon. And I am not a less experienced user having digital cameras since 2003 and cameras in general since 1979. That being said, I would love to see Canon implement AF limiter settings in camera. That may be the only thing I would like added to the R7. (Don't own the R5).
Many folks think it would be so easy to just keep adding firmware to give you more settings, more customizable buttons, etc. with no negatives. Makes me wonder, however, if all the freezing issues Canon (and other brands) have are related to the complexity of the firmware. My guess is more complexity will mean more freezing issues.
