It would have been news if that wasn't the case. Of course blackout will be banished, but lag comes down to EVF refresh rate. The A9 has noticeable lag. If they put a low refresh rate even the stacked sensor won't help. I'm hoping it's a minimum of 120Hz at full res and that it's at least...

With 100-400 S, 200-600 and 400 f/2.8 S and 600 f/4 S incoming. No f/11 abominations as part of the line-up or f/7.1 either. Nikon will no doubt release the superteles with the Z9 and you must have missed the fact they already have 400/ f/2.8 and 600 f/4 and Canon's so-called RF versions are...

Yeah Canon's magical supply chains will mean they will readily available from the get go.

So it will come with overheating and lock ups too?

Z9 will probably have 18 months unchallenged before R1 makes an appearance. Specs looks fantastic and if it's $6K (which I doubt) that would be enough for me to entirely abandon Canon. I'm already commited to Sony and use a D500 but have a lot still of Canon glass still. Nikon won't be doing...

Good to see the A1 has improved IBIS. My A7RIII is only good for about 2 stops. A1 is my next camera, but I am eagerly waiting to see how the R3 holds up even though it's pixel challenged.

Taken way out of context. Most of those hung up on pixel count are birders, cropping is a fact of life even if you own 600 f/4. Already some of the best birders in the world are thrilled with the jump from 24MP to 50MP on their A1. Try and shoot small songbirds or shore waders where even with...

1DX is 2012 tech, 18MP was fine back then. IMO it's not in any way desirable anymore andI say this as someone that loved my 1DX and had one for 5 years. As a birder, as soon as I saw the 5DIV was 30MP I eschewed 1DXII even though I knew I was giving up AF prowess and a lot of speed. R3 will no...

Personally gutted, Canon still incapable of offering decent resolution in a pro camera. I'm sure it will be fantastic camera, and if priced aggressively might be of interest but no doubt Canon will ask for more like A1 money than A9II money. Oh well, looks like I'll sell my A9 and A7RIII for...

For birders 30MP is still a useful improvement over 24MP, that amounts to 12% extra reach. Every bit helps. Let's not forget even 30MP would be disappointing, but palatable. R1 no one has a clue about sensor or res, and at least another 12 months away and no doubt $1.5K dearer or more. We...

Just the Canon equivalent of the Sony schill Patrick Murphy Racey.

That would be nice, they are in plague proportions in Australia. The weapon of choice for those that can't drive it would seem.

I hope they move to 1.5x crop sensor if they go to APS-C on RF mount. EF-S was always silly how they limited it's use unlike other makers with their DX lenses. Not sure why they think there wouldn't be a market for vastly more affordable APS-C cameras. EF-M is a sad joke and should be killed...

Sorry, what exactly is new about them. They are nothing but EF lenses with the adapter glued on. I can't even see the point f releasing, them, the EF III lenses work the same with adapter. Priorities should have been on actually all new 300 f/2.8 and 500 f/4. The notion someone would be stupid...

Well maybe they are holding certain features back. The over-hyping of 8K on the R5 bit them in the a$$. Maybe they wanted to be absolutely certain the R3 can record 8K all day without overheating, and if it can that would be a major feature to announce on the official reveal. A 45MP R3 is almost...

Are you for real. Come to Australia where one retails for $2600 and the other $4900. In what unvierse do live in that the 100-500L rip-off replace a lens nearly half the price. I suppose the 500 f/4 renders the 400 f/5.6L obsolete. I wouldn't pay $4900 for the 100-500L if it were f/5.6.

They can delay the 100-400 all they like, we don't need more rubbishly slow lenses. Yeah sure there will be a 100-400 f/4.5-5.6L IS, but when? If they released the slow and fast together I wouldn't have a problem. But still no fast supertele zooms on the radar.

That will go well paired with the bargain basement RF glass on offer. As for a cheap FF rendering APS-C redundant, in your dreams. You honestly think someone that would buy say a high perforamnce APS-C camera like a 7DII would accept a lowly crippled FF as their new mirrorless replacement tool...

Sony 200-600 is 2.115kg, not 2.4kg get you facts right if you want to have a go at me. I consider 2.5kg the max I can comfortably handhold for an extended period based on my 300 f/2.8L IS. A zoom is about convenience for me. I use a zoom to scout out areas. Then I might go back with the 500 f/4...

Come to Australia and see what price gouging means RF style. $4899 for 100-500L, $5.2K for 85L f/1.2, $3800+ for the holy trinity. RF lenses up about 30% or higher than their EF cousins.
