I agree - for all we know this will be a subscription for use of AI tools after a photo has been taken for processing on one of Canon's software packages, as I've read in here Canon has done that before (I could be wrong). For instance, building a depth map from a taken photo using proprietary software for those who need it - I could see that being more palatable. Certainly my aversion for subscription services is very strong, and I do hope that Canon veers away from making subscription a fundamental requirement for access to the R5ii - I may be one of the last people who still buys their phones outright. I have a pretty good idea of where my line is for subscription tolerance rests, and it may indeed be lower than others. Obviously even the mention of a subscription has myself (and others in here) worrying about worst case scenario, but we're not there yet. My mind isn't made up until I see the offering, if this rumour comes true at all.I think everyone is getting ahead of themselves on this, Canon hasn't even done anything yet, lets wait before we decide to criticize and opt out of anything.
