The M50 or M6 + Sigma 16mm has been a hot selling vlogging setup

That is exactly what 50% of the people who desire an R7 want out of it. The other half wish for it to continue in the 7D style. I'm in the latter camp.EOS R lenses are the future but how about an "M" size body with an "R" mount and some compact crop sensor R lenses.
What exactly is "an adapter for the M system"? If it is an adapter for EF lenses on an M body, they have had one since the beginning of the M system. I own one. I also own two Vello adapters that look identical to the Canon adapter, except for the printing.Many M users are using and purchasing third party lenses such as Sigma for their cameras. Canon will do as they did the RF mount and introduce an adapter for the M system.
The Sigma 16mm is the largest of the three Sigma 1.4 trio lenses, although It is excellent. What Canon badly needs is a smaller 15 f/2 M lens.The M50 or M6 + Sigma 16mm has been a hot selling vlogging setup
How do you know that? It may be the highest volume Canon camera but that is different than being the most profitable one.There are simply too many people on the planet working and teleworking from home. The M mount suits them well and Canon make a lot of moola from that group. Despite Admins love to use it as bait
The M system is the most profitable camera that Canon sells.
Electronics pass through for AF and possible control rings? Yeah, the post was a bit cryptic.What exactly is "an adapter for the M system"?

Well we do know the Rebel DSLR was the cash cow until recently so it is logical to think the new high volume seller for Canon is similarly targeted.How do you know that? It may be the highest volume Canon camera but that is different than being the most profitable one.
I dont understand that. The EOS RP is one of the smallest and lightest fullframe cameras right now, isnt it? What benefits would you see in switching?I wouldn't replace my EOS M cameras with an R body because there simply aren't enough compact/light/inexpensive lenses available for it.
For a lightweight travel camera - if Canon ditches the EOS M then I'd probably move over to E mount.
either way, he would have to buy into new system, not much caries from a M based kit to a R based kit. A kit full of EF glass kept me in EOS orbit. Maybe A9/7/1 whatever would have looked good if EF was dead and the EF->RF adapter didn't exist.I dont understand that.

Also, smaller lenses are starting to come, the RF 35 is very handy and a nice focal length for travel. And the RF 50mm Pancake on any R camera is certainly a super duper tiny and light package?

If it takes choice away from the end-user then by all means cry.
People need to get out of this mindset of "oh that's what companies do, we just have to deal with it". No, companies can only exist so long as they meet the needs and desires of customers.
Please listen to me, I'm still crying !You can and will vote with yourfeetorder, and so will other buyers. It's not the company that sticks to old technology that will survive.
2.5 years there was a lot of crying about the (perceived) obsolescence of the EF mount and DLSRs. Meanwhile I don't hear and see people crying anymore about that.
Interesting news, and I can't wait to see what this new direction is!
If it means an M5 Mark II with a DIGIC 8 or X processor, IBIS, and Animal Eye AF, then I'm all for it!
Jeah.either way, he would have to buy into new system, not much caries from a M based kit to a R based kit. A kit full of EF glass kept me in EOS orbit. Maybe A9/7/1 whatever would have looked good if EF was dead and the EF->RF adapter didn't exist.
