The Canon EOS R5 Has Officially Been Discontinued

It's almost the only single thing that annoys me on the new cameras.
That, and the new M-Fn menu, with two levels and different controls.
I also really like that. Much more convenient for me.
Not only I prefer the power switch on the left, I absolutely hate where they decided to move it to, it's just so out of reach, I have to bend my finger to get there(n)
Luckily, each of my fingers has two joints.

My fingers even have three joints, but none of them move latitudinally as much as the new power switch requires :ROFLMAO:

I added this in a later reply:
I prefer the power switch on the left, but I know I could use it on the right, I would easily deal with that. However, it's not on the right, currently, it's at the top and aimed at the front. The thumb can't get there, the index finger needs to bend, it's just not a good design, in my opinion.

Same issue for the lock switch, specifically because it's aimed at the front. For instance, the RP has the lock switch in the same place, but aimed at the right, which is great, since the thumb can easily reach it. You can lock and unlock without having to adjust the right hand entirely.
