Re: EOS R Price after 12 months

$1599. I could now order a 5DIV for the equivalent of US$2200. (parallel imported). That's a drop of a third since release. Canon have hinted in interviews that they consider the EOS-R release price quite high. There are rumours of a lower spec Canon and Sony version coming soon. The Sony version (A5?) will cost about $1500 and, if Sony are consistent with their approach so far, won't lose much from the A7III. The Canon appears to have the 6DII sensor so can't release at much more than the 6DII currently sells for. Those will both have dropped slightly in 12 months, dragging the EOS-R down with them. There will also be a higher end R. Those with the money for those expensive native lenses will go for that model.
