Originally posted by KiloHotelphoto Well for Canon it seems to be a good move. The R5 and a lot of RF mount lenses are still sold out at most retailers and the R6 has been at times also.
As far as performance the R5 and 6 are far better than the dslr bodies. After a month with the R5 I sold my 5dsr and 1DX2 and picked up the R6. The auto focus performance and frame rate is great, the EVF looks great, that was a concern for me never using one before.
I’m using two EF mount lenses with the adapters and the lenses work just like on a EF body so Canon did a great job of making the switch easy.
I definitely think Canon made the right move with going all in on mirrorless and with the rumored lenses and bodies for 2021 I think more people will be buying.
Thats Canon laughing all the way to the bank.
Someone I know has recently ditchd his 2 5dmk3s in favour of the R6, I had a go recently(swapped him my RP).Its nice.
He was using EF adapter,doesnt have any RF yet.
Canon are not "all in on M/L" though but at this stage the majority of R/D is in that direction.They said if there was demand for Dslr/EF then they will meet it(thats the way I understand it).The 1DXmk 3 came out.90D within the time they have been marketing r stuff.
Next year will see some substantial developments,they have $ony in their sights!

Possibly fade to 25-30% of ILC in the next 3-5 years.

Not so sure about what you listed,there are lots of M/L users creating content that moves which is a significant advantage over what most Dslrs offer.

The rumoured A7iv and A9iii should be big jumps up.
