Patent: A sensor protection assembly for a small form factor RF mount ILC
- Thread starter Canon Rumors
- Start date
My RF 35 1.8 is lusting for that body! And please make an EF lens to RF body adaptor with tripod thread (like that of the EOS M system) for those who like to use old EF lenses in non-homeopathic doses!

I’m with you on that. But so many people today have only ever used smartphone screens that I don’t think it would really hurt sales of an entry level $799 R-body camera. I personally find it uncomfortable to hold a body/telephoto lens out in front of me to view the live screen. And not very stable either. No EVF is probably fine for the video creators, who are the fast-expanding market.

It is used to protect the sensor when changing the lens in the new bodies. I wouldn't think that it would save much money, in which case I would like to see them keep it on all bodies going forward.

It's just a new design to improve/ stop the M/s from shutter shock on R5.
R5 goes too much with it's 2-motor- driven shutter design which causes shutter shock worse than those from DSLR which is one of the main reason we upgrade to mirrorless from DSLR, meanwhile to avoid the shuther - shock.

Electronic shutter necessitates more powerful and faster electronics by the nature of how it works. This cost more money and may eat up any savings from elimination of the mechanical shutter.

I actually think they are running with the Siggy FP design here. Maybe it's an a7c killer? Stabs in the dark

If cheaper full frame RF mount is to be the replacement of APS-C with Canon, why would it be so? Has Canon found that APS-C wouldn't be profitable anymore? Potential Eos m users simply using the more and more advanced computational photography on their phones, with the different focal length lenses that are being added? Is it because fujifilm has got that segment covered and they don't want to compete there? While fujifilm themselves are reducing their digital imaging manufacturing. https://fstoppers.com/gear/fuji-refocuses-away-photography-570640
Does Canon see there aren't pros looking for APS-C cameras anymore? Or does it see that the possibility of producing cheaper telephoto lenses with slower aperture negates the need for an RF APS-C system?

There are plenty of options for those who want flash, and who worry about electronic shutter effects and everything else.
This would seem to be an entry level camera for low cost and small size.
that’s a market segment that is probably large but virtually unrepresented by those who participate here.
Except for people like me looking for a compact alternative to their R5 for pocketing occasionally, travel, while having the ability to share any lens.

Not true. They do that in some cameras but they didn't in the RP they said they did it because they didn't want people sticking their finger in the shutter and harming it. Canon saying if you can't afford a $5000 camera you must be stupid.

An R100? The Canon M100/M200 are adorably small. Most first-time camera users have never used an EVF.
