I would be surprised if the R8 II actually switches over to the "retro" camera body being rumored. It seems like the R8 has a lot of potential to be a successful size going forward and to "go retro" probably means losing the traditional Canon ergonomics. Why not just create a new retro model? They can still use the same R6 III / C50 / R6V sensor. But an R8 II with a similar, small body design, but the R6 III sensor and keep it in that $1,500 USD price range would be fantastic.
