A New Full Frame V Series Camera is Coming Next Week

[Canon Rumors]

i did jump ship to get that lumix for $1259 with the edu discount, but of course if canon releases this Immight return the lumix just so I stay in one eco system, but I gotta say that lumix s9 has amazing footage quality

I love how that camera got panned by 0-day reviewers, and then real people bought it and love it.

That's an interesting consideration. 20-50mm would be very good 'walkaround' range for a single lens, similar to the 16-50mm range on the PowerShot V1. If this lens does come along, I'll wait for the IQ results to see if it's worthwhile, but it very well might be.

I´m not entirely happy with my travel/ hiking options/ set-up. I tend to take a two-lens setup e.g. the RF 14-35mm & 70-200mm for cities or prime and a zoom for hiking. I do own the RF 24-105mm which chatgpt tells me is my "go-to lens to cover 90% of my shots" (I let chatgpt create travel set-ups out of my existing line-up for fun) but I quite often choose to leave the lens at home or at the hotel. A 20-50mm would be perfect for hiking since I rarely need 14mm in the mountains and combined with 70-200mm it would be a real nice combo. I'll just wait and see.

The PowerShot V1 is not for me, I´d like to either have a longer zoom range on a compact camera or the ability to switch lenses, therefore I chose the R8.

But what were the products that had poor sales? For example, EVF-DC2 was only working with a couple of M series cameras that probably were not Canon's most-selling anyway. It might sell much better if the smaller V cameras end up selling well, especially if there will be more of them in the future. EVFs are crucial when shooting details in bright outdoor situations, in my opinion.

The C300 III and C500 II also had an optional EVF.
None of the new cinema cameras has that.

Canon doesn't need to care anymore. Users can choose from 4 separate bodies with the same 32MP sensor, two with an EVF, or two without.

I guess you are basing this on the rumors.
Currently, we can choose between the R6 III and C50, which do have the same full-frame 32 MP sensor.
We can also choose between the R50, R50V, and R10, which all have the same 24 MP APS-C sensor.
There is also a choice between the C80, R3, and R1, but those are less alike.
The R5 and R5 C both have the same EVF, but those cameras are old.
