This looks very promising, and I am thinking to replace my 6d with this. Just wondering does this RP have on-chip ADC or off-chip ADC?

The first mail was from Clifton Cameras, and their's is without the adapter. The subsequent mails from WEX, Jessops etc do have the adapter included. Maybe Clifton made a mistake.All UK prices I’ve seen are with the adapter.
Amazon also showed with adapter for £1300 until they hid it. Canon store shows it with adapter too.The first mail was from Clifton Cameras, and their's is without the adapter. The subsequent mails from WEX, Jessops etc do have the adapter included. Maybe Clifton made a mistake.
But a huge number of buyers (perhaps most of them) will be coming from EF mount cameras who already have a library of glass.

I wonder. What are the figures normally touted - the average user has one lens, a small minority have two, and the proportion of users with more than two lenses is vanishingly small. Can that last group be the target for a low-end, mass-market* product?
*admittedly, being FF, it's already a niche product, but within the context of FF it's surely mass market.
Well I didn't necessarily mean a huge library. 1-2 EF lenses are enough. I'm thinking about a lot of original 6D users that likely have at least the 24-105 or (one of the variants of) a 24-70.
Those are the current prices on BH Photo.Those aren't the launch MSRPs. Don't parrot the propaganda line from the DPR Sony fanboys...
Those weren't released today...Those are the current prices on BH Photo.
As far as I kno? Canon has not yet confirmed that it's the same sensor as the 6DII, but it's identical in resolution (both total and effective pixel counts), so I would expect that it is the same sensor. I believe that means off-chip ADC, unfortunately. Still a great sensor from what I hear from 6DII owners, but I was hoping for current generation sensor with on-chip ADC...
It really seems there is same sensor as 6D2, but is it possible to tweak the sensor to get on-chip ADC? I'm not expert, I really don't know. I'm still pretty happy with my 6D sensor, but still, if I'm gonna upgrade the camera, I'd like to see some improvement in sensor, too.

If by "issue" you mean "revenue stream", then yes.The other issue is that people with entry-level cameras will have mainly APS-C lenses, which *technically* work on the R, but will kill the resolution you get.
Doesn’t matter, those are the camera bodies that it competes with and are the options of buyers today.Those weren't released today...
Following your logic, nobody should be buying brand new bodies and just wait for the 1DX2 to drop down to $1K in 10 years time...Doesn’t matter, those are the camera bodies that it competes with and are the options of buyers today.
We’re not talking about the same thing then.Following your logic, nobody should be buying brand new bodies and just wait for the 1DX2 to drop down to $1K in 10 years time...

Shockingly honestCanon: Basically, it's the same sensor, except the microlenses are fine-tuned to be more optimized for the mirrorless system.

I bet my 5D2 is pretty cheap these days too.Doesn’t matter, those are the camera bodies that it competes with and are the options of buyers today.
