Canon EOS R6 V Specs: Active Cooling and more…

[mb66energy]

I have seen that lens as an interesting dual use option for both, APS-C (standard zoom, fixed f-stop) and roughly ultrawide for FF.
→ R7 with 20-50 (32-80) + R6 with 100-400 , after lens swap
→ R7 with 100-400 (160-640) + R6 with 20-50
effectively 20 ... 640 mm with a small gap between 80 and 100mm effective focal length ...

But 1400 bucks seems - to me - a little bit to high - except optical image quality is stellar!

But 1400 bucks seems - to me - a little bit to high - except optical image quality is stellar!

As a benchmark, the EF 24-70mm f/4L launched in 2012 at $1499. Given that, $1400 —in today's dollars and factoring in Canon's tariff-based price increases— seems consistent. A slightly shorter zoom ratio (2.5x vs. 2.9x), but providing an ultrawide focal length and the power zoom feature. So while $1400 is not cheap, it actually seems pretty reasonable to me.
