it depends.... as long as hardcore canon fanboys buy cameras that miss features.
i guess it is cheaper to produce cameras with the same old sensors (no BSI, not stacked) and without 4K features that would need a beefier processor.
reusing old stuff sure creates higher profits than developing like crazy in a shrinking market.... when the customers buy your stuff anyway.
but you have to be a canon fanboy or shareholder to appreciated this strategy....
I think that's why they have been dragging their feet to get into FF mirorless and making pro FF mirror less.
They don't want to invest too much in R&D for a shrinking market, and when they do enter FF mirrorless, they released a product that's not to disrupt their DSLR sales.
Their next lower tier make it more logical. It's all about the numbers to them. It's great business strategy but as consumer, it means they will lagged behind the competitors on values
This apply to Nikon as well.
I am skeptical to fully commit to one mount in FF mirrorless and will be buying whatever camera for my needs and use my EF lens. I doubt my next camera will be Canon.
