I had a bunch of trade credit I wanted to use so I had to wait until 10am ET to get my order in.... hoping I didn’t burn myself on having to wait for the next batch

Relax. Yes, your EF lenses will work with the EF-RF adapter. I don’t know the answers to the rest of your questions. I ordered two spare batteries with my R5.Instant R5 pre-order for me. I still have some unanswered questions though... This WILL work with the EF-RF mount converter, right? I'm sitting on $25K of EF glass and not being able to use that would be a dealbreaker. Can I use my LP-E6 batteries and AC-faux-battery-plug in this thing? What kind of bitrates are the various codecs in 8K and 4K? Can it film 8K to a UHS-II SD card or must you use CFexpress?
Preordered on blind faith right now (yes I'm foolish but Canon has never let me down TOO badly, hehe), hopefully reviewers will post details like this before my preorder ships so I can catch any dealbreaking issues before it's too late.
Unemployment in the US is higher than it's ever been since the great depression. I think the number of people ready to drop 4 grand on a camera is a little lower than it would normally be right now.I had a bunch of trade credit I wanted to use so I had to wait until 10am ET to get my order in.... hoping I didn’t burn myself on having to wait for the next batch
Here is the table for max burst of R6:

Hi, when I order the R5 camera body only, the EF/R lens adapter is NOT included correct? I think this is wired since with the R camera I think ? the adapter is coming as deafult.
Also what is the difference betwen the standard adapter and the one with the control ring mount in? https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1433718-REG/canon_mount_adapter_ef_rf_with.html
Thanks in advance.

It's about the same as in 1982 and 2009, and rocketing back to normal. 90% of those who want jobs have them, and the ones out of work are mostly service/hospitality/retail workers and not buyers of $4000 camera bodies.Unemployment in the US is higher than it's ever been since the great depression.

Probably might be some limitation due to the way sensor might behave with electronic shutter. Overall R6 is 1Dx MK3 for masses, I dont recall any Canon camera with such massive buffer..Wait, no HEIF in e-shutter mode?!?!

But I agree, literally, the number might be a LITTLE lower. But not enough to matter to Canon for pricing purposes.
I would be shocked if there weren't at least some professionals that might have otherwise bought this new camera, but facing a dry spell of work, are deciding to hold off on new equipment purchases.i think that under appreciates the people who regularly have $4,000 of discretionary spending, income inequality, and the ‘normal’ market for $4,000 cameras. I think if you drew a Venn diagram the overlap would be shockingly small.
It's not rocketing back to normal, it rocketed back from obscene levels to a level still above the great recession, because we went from a completely shuttered country to just one with very slow business. And another 1.3 million people just filed for first time unemployment claims this week. The gains we saw in unemployment the last couple of months were a dead cat bounce.

I wouldn’t necessarily disagree but I would also like to see a Venn diagram of ’professional’ user vs amateur user historical purchasing.I would be shocked if there weren't at least some professionals that might have otherwise bought this new camera, but facing a dry spell of work, are deciding to hold off on new equipment purchases.
Speaking as an R owner, there had better be focus stacking on the R5/6 lol
Link's not working. Is there a way to get to this pdf through Canon's website?Both have it, see here, #58. https://downloads.canon.com/nw/camera/products/eos/product-1/pdfs/EOS-R5-improvements-part-1.pdf
Pretty interesting document, it’s a reasonably detailed compilation of all the updates between the R and R5/6.
That would be interesting to see how many pros buy these cameras as tools, vs how many rich folks buy them as toys.I wouldn’t necessarily disagree but I would also like to see a Venn diagram of ’professional’ user vs amateur user historical purchasing.
