[...] so how is the 90D a bridge between ff and CMOS?
Perhaps Blaydese meant APS-C and it’s just a typo? Not sure.

A 90D would be an APS-C so it couldn't be a bridge between an APS-C and something else.Perhaps Blaydese meant APS-C and it’s just a typo? Not sure.
When Canon says, in interviews, that they don’t know how much longer DSLRs would be around, though they would be around for a number of years, that’s pretty much saying they’re on borrowed time. I think we all know, that the death of DSLRs is just a matter of time.Well, you see, that's the problem with playing fast and loose with information.
There is quite a bit of difference between:
...and projections that eventually mirrorless cameras may sell more units than DSLRs. One implies extinction...one does not.
As far as I know, Canon executives can not see into the future and have never claimed to have that particular super power. As a company responsible for protecting the interests of their investors and sustaining the viability of their business units, Canon seems to be positioning themselves to adapt to the market, wherever the market takes them.

Obviously, Canon needs more lenses before more people will switch. Not everyone wants to use adapters. I see the DSLR contingent trying to convince the rest of us that DSLRs will be here forever.
Would you mind sharing which adapter you have been using and how well it works? I've been considering the Fringer but haven't ordered since they are in the process of switching over to a new V2 of their EF-FX Pro.If this had 120fps 1080p it would be an instant buy for me. I ended up picking up a Fuji X-T3 as a b-roll camera for its 120fps capabilities and am adapting my EF lenses to it with moderate success, but matching Fuji to Canon colors on my 5D4 has been a PITA. This would solve so many problems, which is exactly why I don't think Canon will do it.
We do? You mean you need it. Believe you me, Canon has a finger on the pulse of their base. The base certainly isn't high end APS-C camera owners with $10,000 lenses. If that was the base, Canon would be doomed.We need a 7D Mark III...Canon needs to check with their base. The Nikon D850, although full frame, has a lot of features that would look good in the Mark III.

Indeed: check the specs.
-Check the number of AF-points: the D500 has 153, the 7D Mk II has 65.
-Check the number of cross-type AF points: the D500 has 99, the 7D Mk II has 65.
-Check the number of f/8 AF-points: the D500 yes, the 7D Mk II no.
The better Dynamic Range of the D500-body probably is important here (although many on this forum keep repeating that the difference in DR is minor or even that DR is hardly important: it is for action photography of air planes in less than ideal lighting).
The problem with a statement like this is, while it must be true, it is so open-ended as to be essentially meaningless. EVERYTHING has a finite lifespan. It's like the old quip Neuro likes to use about the Sun becoming a red giant and (potentially) swallowing the Earth.
A friend and his adult son did an extensive trip last fall to Morocco, Barcelona, a John Wesley tour of England, and a bunch of other places. The son documented the trip by taking selfies and shots of his dad. I could barely make out were they were because of the heads occupying most of the frame. I know what they both look like. Still, I was glad to get the updates. I just wished that I could have seen more of the places they visited.I for one don't hate cell phone cameras or selfies. Far more people have great fun with those than do the minority that use EOS.
They clearly had sufficient fun to want to show you the selfies and you enjoyed getting updates. Perhaps a mutual trading of lessons in photographic techniques would be in order. Although not being a selfy man myself, I can see where the notorious selfy stick would be useful in expanding the background and reducing the size of heads.A friend and his adult son did an extensive trip last fall to Morocco, Barcelona, a John Wesley tour of England, and a bunch of other places.

I did try a selfie last year. Someone who knew I was going to the A10 conference tournament in Washington, DC, told me to take a selfie with Archie Bunker's chair. The results didn't inspire me to do any more selfies:
