Great.
I just switched from full-frame (5D) to crop (7D Mark II), sold all but one of my full-frame lenses (Sigma 15/2.8 fisheye, 24-105/4L, 35/1.4L, 85/1.8, 17-40L, kept the 70-200/2.8L IS II) and bought 3 EF-s lenses (10-18STM, 18-135nano-USM, 55-250STM), one Sigma crop lens (18-35/1.8) and a bunch of different full-frame lenses targeted at my crop camera (8-15/4L fisheye, 50/1.8STM, Sigma 150-600C) and I've never been happier.
Now, EF-s has been abandoned, the 7D line looks to have been abandoned, and mirrorless cameras (which absolutely suck, in my opinion, due to the EVFs) are sucking up all the development money.
All I want is an updated 7D with more pixels (I'm often focal-length-limited even with the 150-600), a better sensor, better video (I'm especially interested in low-resolution high frame-rate, windowed zooming and electronic stabilization in video modes) and some more AF upgrades. And it looks like that's never going to happen.
I guess all I can hope for is that EVFs suddenly become tolerable and my EF-s lenses will work on one of them with a high pixel density (even 61MP full-frame is the same as the 80D as far as pixel density goes).
