"Tough & Drag AF" - sounds like you have to fight with itAccording to Adorama, it has 30fps. I am buying this. To me, this is their best move ever since I have known Canon.

Considering the Fuji is a crop sensor camera ($1,399) and the Sony a7 Mark III is right at $2k (I just now checked B&H)... did you really have to ask? Good Lord! There is a huge number of us users that are really only worried about stills anyway. At the last model boot camp I shot less than 300 photos on my 5D Mark III. My two extra batteries never had to be used. Takes 3 seconds to swap a battery. This camera's weight is comparable to the Olympus OM-D E-5 Mark II ($899 M4/3) ... and is full frame. Huge value for the $. The 6D II sensor is a fine sensor. Sensor doesn't change the quality of the lighting, composition, or subject matter... which means far more than the brand and model one chooses to measurebate against. If one can't well light and compose stills, it is doubtful the video would be any better... no matter the frame rate or 1080p or 4k.
Yes, it is.No, it is not. If what Canon did is just they recycled 6DII sensor, I will gladly pass on this one, again, and will either wait for the Pro model for another two years, or go with the M5/M6 successor just for its pocketability. I really do expect companies to innovate, so for me, putting-in a sensor almost worse than its 7 years old model is not something I want to spend my money for. Not in the situation, when lower class APS-C models are all on on-chip ADC.
Is that really confirmed, that RP uses exactly the same 6DII sensor? No matter how great and surprising the price is, if they did it again, I would be extremly disappointed. When the 6DII was released, my prediction was, that Canon was in some production press, and that 6DIII is going to be released in 1-2 year's timeframe, to just bring in updated sensor. I expected RP being kind of 6DIII in that respect.
I guess I was wrong after all. The brochure shows only 4K 3840 x 2160: 23.98fps. If that is the case, I am giving up. Not for me. Waiting again. ..."Tough & Drag AF" - sounds like you have to fight with it

it probably is. I mean here's full frame for 1300 bucks.
You can pick up a reasonable used 5DS for that price. Which would you choose?
This isn't like the release of the original 5D when Canon were forging a market; the only other FF option at the time was 1Ds at three times the price. Now they're also competing with themselves. Out there in Reality, photographers are making-do with second-hand 5D2 and 6D. Some of the richer ones have 5D3.
People on this board are in the 1% of camera owners. Projections that this will sell like hot-cakes ignore the actual financial reality of life; median income in the USA is $49k for a man.
It is not confirmed to be the exact same sensor. It could be an updated one like the R was from 5Div or completely new. I suspect the former. It would be good to have official confirmation.No, it is not.

The plain EF are not too expensive. Most of the L series, of course, are. Hmmmm... the EF 50mm f/1.8 II is on closeout at Adorama right this second. $129

No DPAF in 4k also. For the price not surprising but lots of grumbling from the only put in a nickel and get a dollar song crowd.

yeah I use High Speed Sync too when I need to, but it requires the flash to be mounted directly, not controlled wirelessly (via flash on 80D). It can mean harsher direct light, but I will admit I'm not pro with bounce flash capabilities to counter this.
While the flash does freeze the image at the lower speeds, the max shutter speed may mean there is blur leading to that 'freeze'... it can make for neat or annoying results. Again not a pro, so value info like this, but find it weird to work with. Not entirely sure what you mean by 'get it dark enough' .. I don't want things darker, just faster shutter speeds (which I guess makes backgrounds darker)
Except the Panasonic isn't even APS-C. It's a micro 4/3
