I just killed a goat and read his entrails, and it predicts the contrary
well I have still to understand why this particular new body will do that, knowing that Sony's offer is around since years and a majority of us did not choose it.
I do a lot of sport and wild life photos, I am not interested. I tried and did not like it, at least over my reflex cameras. Excellent technology for sure, but well this was my decision, and the one of many of us since now...
In addition Sony's products are better. So why I would buy this one?! Because this is Canon and there is the same battery that I use in my 7D and 5D? Well this is rather thin...
I am evidently certain they will be a marked for this new product, that is for sure. It will appeal to the same that bought Sony. Also you have to keep in mind the price factor.
As far as I understand, Canon market strategy is to occupy all segments, and segment his offer within. that is what they are doing now, business as usual.
so letting down a segment in which Canon is the true master would be a rather strange decision.
