What’s next from Canon?

It can also be a lens issue, specifically if the AF motor doesn't move exactly the amount the camera tells it to, particularly in high speed shooting modes when the camera might not do a "confirmation" AF reading after the lens has moved. It can also be a loose lens/camera interface that allows the lens to move slightly in relation to the sensor after AF has been locked.
It can be a lens issue, specifically if the AF motor doesn't move exactly the amount the camera tells it to, particularly in high speed shooting modes when the camera might not do a "confirmation" AF reading after the lens has moved. Or it can be a lens issue where the AF position is not held between AF lock and exposure. It can also be a loose lens/camera interface that allows the lens to move slightly in relation to the sensor after AF has been locked.
The camera has a feature where when you press the af-on button, when reviewing pictures, it zoomes in very close and exactly there, where the camera focused.
when i take pictures in generall, but also on a tripod, then the area a few centimeters behind the position i wanted to focus on is clearly sharper then what i (and the camera) focused on.
its consistent across all images, but its a very small backfocus. My dealership clearly saw the error when i showed them and could also replikate it themselves, but the sony repair center here in germany can currently not reprocude it and i dont know why. its super obvious to me, and all my friends can see it. dunno why the sony center cant see it.
i currently have it in repair and it seems like they are gonna send it back saying "camera works fine"... then i dont have any legal basis for a refund or even a working camera because the repair shop says it works -.-
Edit: the repairshop has the Camera AND Lens with that the dealer and i can see the backfocus, so either way either on the lens or camera they should be able to find the backfocus but they dont.

That upgrade (and more) is called the EOS RebelT7i/800D. I doubt you'll ever see all cross-type AF points in the 1xxxD series.
If you are wanting pixel sharp images, surely you are using a tripod? Why not use the magnified AF with Live View?
Is it possible criscokkat was talking about the 5Ds and 5Ds R replacements being combined, not the 5Ds and the 5D Mark IV replacements?
The entire Canon EOS line (other than perhaps the 1D X Mark II) has seen price drops recently. It seems to be based more on market demand than product cycles at this point. As the overall market continues to shrink, Canon seems to have decided to compete more on price than they have in the past.
Haven't you noticed that the latest cameras Canon has introduced with .cr3 raw files and C-RAW do not include the M-RAW and S-RAW options?
Since moving to CR3 raw files, Canon has not included the M-RAW and S-RAW options in those cameras.
Do you realize the current 90D "metering sensor" is basically an RGB+IR 220,000 pixel CMOS sensor? And that the 1D X Mark II, 1D X, 5D Mark IV, 7D Mark II, 80D, 77D, Rebel T7i/800d, etc. have similar RGB+IR metering sensors?
Have you not noticed that the newer EOS cameras with .cr3 raw files do not include the M-RAW and S-RAW options?
But the jump from a 30MP 5D Mark IV (or even 24MP 5D Mark III) to an 80+ MP EOS Rs is a LOT bigger than the jump from a 24MP 5D Mark III to a 30 MP 5D Mark IV. Why do you keep conflating people coming from a 30MP 5D Mark IV with people coming from a 50MP 5Ds/5Ds R?
You'd still need to debeyer. The colors of the filters in the Bayer mask are far from the colors we use in our RGB reproduction systems. Particularly in the "red" channel, most Bayer masks are centered on about 590nm (which is a slightly orange version of yellow) rather than 640nm, which is what we use for "Red" in RGB additive (screens that emit light) trichromatic color reproduction systems. The "blue" filters in a Bayer mask are usually centered around 455nm, instead of 480nm "Blue", and the "green" filters are centered at around 540nm, rather than 525nm "Green".

The problem with making a 100mm f/2 macro is that it's really difficult (and expensive, and heavy) to do flat field correction required for macro lenses out past an around f/2.8 sized entrance pupil. The EF 100mm f/2 leaves a lot of field curvature uncorrected (which is often desirable in a portrait lens, as it gives smoother out of focus areas), but field curvature is a death sentence for a macro lens (which doesn't worry about out of focus areas as much since it's specifically designed to image flat 2D objects at close distances).
There's a big difference between an "adapter" that merely provides needed spacing between an EOS-M body and an EOS EF lens that are both part of the EOS system and use protocols built on the same core and an "ADAPTER" meant to put a lens from one manufacturer on a camera from another manufacturer. The EF to RF and EF to EOS-M "adapters" are simpler and less likely to cause image degradation, exposure, or AF performance issues than Canon's EF 1.4X or Ef 2X extenders are.
That all depends upon what marketing area you're in. CPS in the U.S. is very different from CPS in Canada, which is very different from CPS in Europe with regard to what products do and do not qualify.
In the U.S., the 7D Mark II earns points towards the CPS membership tiers. Even the 7D still gets one point. The 5D Mark II recently "aged out" and is no longer worth any qualifying points.
Edit: Or maybe they just listed it below the EOS 5Ds R instead of with the 5D Mark IV and 5D Mark III...
