Would you pay more for 1080p in the M5 that is at least as good as in 80D?

Well as it stands the C100mk2 can't be used professionally either at this point.

It can only shoot 1080p with a crappy consumer grade 4:2:0 8-bit Codec.

you'd have to completely out of your mind to even consider one at this point. Especially with the Sony FS5 and Blackmagic Ursa on the market.

So the first serious Canon ILC for video is 16k

the C300mk2

C100 mk2: uncompressed 4:2:2 signal out of the HDMI port. Makes all the difference...

The Fs5 can do 4k 4:2:2 10-bit with a similar set-up. Same can be said about the much cheaper Panasonic GH4

Or have the same 1080p 4:2:2 10-bit with the additional hassle and stuff that can go wrong with external recording.

And last but not least a variable electronic ND instead of the crude C100 solution.

So no it makes no difference It should just be discontinued and replaced with something worthwhile.
