Nice! It looks good. I'm officially blown away. It's real! Glad there's a flip screen and not tilt.

Excited to see what the screen blackout/follow up is like. If it can keep up with action this seems like a great upgrade for me. Really want that 28-70 F2.

We only need one kidney?

 

[admiralburns]

If the price is still sub 2k (or thereabouts) as rumored, I'm buying one. That simple.

 

[FurryMan]

The 28-70/2.0 does not look too big.

 

[MNMR]

That looks sexy

It's big dude. Scale it to the 24-105's mount. It's big.

EV -6 ?!?!?!?!?! Holy CRAP

 

[ahsanford]

Control wheel = RIP. Thought it might survive, but I guess the tilty-flippy needed some of that room.

Cards = Unknown. Looks SD sized, but how many = TBD

FPS unknown

IBIS unknown

It's looking really good... So glad this is real.

I'm trying to figure out which gear to try and sell to subsidize what I'm guessing will be a $3000-3500 camera. I like my M3 and EF-M 22mm, but I hardly see me investing in any of the EOS M line anymore. Yet and still, I still love the compactness of that combo. Definitely time to part ways with the 5D Mark II and 80-200mm.

Where are you seeing that?

Forgive me, missed that. Holy hell. -6?!

Take my money.

 

[Inspired]

I had high hopes for eye-auto focus

 

[bks54]

Almost exactly same size and weight as Nikon ZZZZZZ. But definitely cuter.

 

[admiralburns]

Wait...does it have a headphone jack?

[navastronia]

I wanted a nice, chunky grip

Wish this were a pro camera. I’ll save my money until then.

Spec list isn't complete yet. No mention of FPS or IBIS either.

Eye AF is a quirk of an AF system, not a topline spec anyway, isn't it?
