The 30 Year Evolution of Canon EOS Cameras Visualised

[Canon Rumors Guy]

<p>The Canon EOS system was introduced in March of 1987, and <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BTECduYfWnI">Digital Camera Warehouse</a> and compiled a visual history of all EOS SLR/DSLRs since the first EOS 650 35mm SLR all the way to the latest EOS 77D from Canon.</p>
<p>Over 70 EOS cameras have been released, how many have you owned?</p>

I've owned 5, and still own all of them.

EOS Rebel 2000 35mm
EOS Elan 7n 35mm
EOS 20D
EOS 6D
EOS 7D mk2

They should compare the cameras of the same range afterwards... so you would see the small changes between 1D ... and 1DX2 and so on.
So its nice to see not so well-known models, but as an "evolution" useless...

Started 2008:
1. 40d
2. 60d
3. 7d
4. 5d II
5. 5d III
6. 1Dx...was my last Canon body

Now...100% FF mirrorless ;D

Current is only the 5DIIIs. Of the past cameras I had, I miss the 40D the most.

The cross branded Kodak digital cameras were terrifyingly huge.

I used Minolta film cameras until about 2005 when I sold it all and went to Canon digital.

 

[GMCPhotographics]

I stared with a Eos 650

650
33
300D
20D
5D
40D
5DII
7D
5DIII

 

[Crosswind]

(Excluding some Pentax and Minolta cameras in my list):

EOS 40D (2-3 years?)
EOS 600D (2-3 years?)
EOS 5D mk 1 (a few weeks)
EOS 6D (~ 3 years)
EOS 100D/SL1 (a day - for testing)
EOS M10 (a few months - and then I gave it to my mum ;D )
EOS M3 (a day - for testing)
EOS M5 (since Jan 2017)

I'm not quite sure if I will ever go back to FF or stay with APS-C, but I will remain within Canon's mirrorless family (pretty sure about that)!

 

[DominoDude]

I have only owned two, and they are still in my possession. A 50D and a 7D. Now that I'm back to working and having a salary, I have my aim set for a third Canon EOS - going for my first FF. It just takes a few more months...

 

[Jopa]

My history doesn't start with Canon

Sony A99 (sold)
Sony A7r + Sony A7 (sold)
Sony A7II (sold)
Sony A7rII (sold)
Canon 5dsR
Canon 1dxII

 

[Zv]

My history of Canon started relatively recently (*curently own)

Canon 550D / t2i
Canon 7D
Canon 5D MkII
Canon EOS M*
Canon 6D*
Canon EOS M2*

What will be my 7th I wonder? Or will I end it here? I'm quite happy with what I have. Out of all the 5D MkII and 6D have been my faves with the M2 close second.
