Breaking down the latest Canon gear to appear for certification

No offence intended, but this is the usual BS reply from a troll. Hope you're not one.

P.S. Almost everyone who has a 6D II loves it. Their opinions count more than the internet trolls who only look at specs.

Didn't you get the memo? It's not about people buying a camera and being happy with it... what really counts is the people who won't ever buy the camera not being unhappy with the spec sheet :D

Canon is probably going to milk that 24Mpix crop sensor architecture for a while. But I'd expect somewhat improved fps in return, beyond the slight improvement seen in the M50.

I thought this might be plausible as well, but that would be an unprecedented resolution for an APS-C sensor. I don't think there are crop sensors exceeding 24MP currently generally available. Personally I'd prefer improved fps over improved resolution in a 80D successor.

The Fuji X-T3 with 26.1MP sensor will be available this week.

I mean, at least he was given the benefit of the doubt in not being a troll- usually, that's the conclusion everyone jumps to around here.

APS-C or FF , may I ask ?

The 30D is APS-C. If the K437 turns out to be the 90D (APS-C as well), then I'll break down and add it to my bag. I was using the antiquated 30D and 5D when I first jumped into photography. Then I upgraded to the 6D II last year, but I've always wanted the extra reach a high-res APS-C crop offered. I've been toying with the idea of getting an 80D for some time, but I'll wait for a 32MP 90D if it's announced soon.

Happy to see an M6 Mark II and M5 Mark II on this list :). I know the M line has been in question after the EOS R's announcement, so this is a sign of relief at least for now. Seeing as the M100 is only about a year old, we probably won't be seeing an M200 on a certification list until sometime in the second half of next year.

Why two replacements (K435/K436) for the 77D?

Different colors?

Mostl likely is that K437 is the 90D, and K435/K436 are the 78D and 850D respectively.

Although I am somewhat amusing myself, but noone else, in thinking that as the 77D followed the 760D, the next in that sequence should be the 7.8D :)

It definitely is. I don't expect 26 mpx FF mirrorless camera to be entry FF line - 6D. Just look at the Canon 1DXII and Sony A9.

Unless there's a real shock coming I don't think Canon are able to compete with the A9 yet. No IBIS, sensor tech not yet close. Canon have some advantages, especially when it comes to DPAF, but I think an A9 or 1DX class mirrorless is a long way off..

I expect Canon to grow the M series of bodies (and lenses, although not as much...) for many many years.

The Canon future is M for small-and-light APS-C shooters...and R for those who simply must have full frame (professionals and those who want to shoot like professionals!).

I am interested to see the G9X III on the list.

I still own a fully-functional S95; this tiny little body served us very very well.

I looked...and looked...and studied some more, when the G9X I (and II) came on the market.

I decided against purchasing both...with the tiny M2 + 22mm lens often in my hands, I find myself using the S95 less and less...

But here's the key, too.

For people/vacation-type pictures that do not require a flash, it turns out that the camera on the Apple 6s is...tremendous!

So there's another comparison for me to make, when deciding on the G9X III...vs the iPhone as well as a tiny M. For me, I'll be looking at how 'quick' and 'responsive' the G9X III seems...I was not impressed with the II's responsiveness, and I wasn't all that satisfied with what I saw from the 1" sensor inside of it, either. But I'm hopeful that the III will surprise me, in a good way.

waiting for a mirrorless camera worth attaching the RF 50mm f1.2 and RF 28-70mm F2.0 too.

will not buy the 28-70mm but i sure be interested in the 50mm f1.2.

and i want to use that adapter with the ND filter with my TS-E 17mm.

but not on the EOS R or a 26MP body.

something fast and around 40-45MP... until then i stick to my trusty 5D MK4

Right. Small, inexpensive, APS-C is their bread and butter. With probably a hundred crop bodies sold for every FF, Canon wouldn't exist long as a company without those. The R being a bulky mount with expensive lenses, I don't think we're going to see consumer-level R bodies any time soon.

I think the release of the fastest APS-C lens in Canon's history is also testament to their continuing the M line. Hopefully they will soon announce the EF-M 53 f/1.8 IS...

No, EOS M line has never been really in question. Only some folks like Thom Hogan and a few n00bs who are unable or unwilling to understand Canon's transition from 2 mirrorslapper mounts (EF, EF-S) to 2 mirrorfree mounts (RF, EF-M).

EF-S is dead. EF is legacy. RF and EF-M will be around for many years to come.
