Canon should focus on expanding full frame offerings and expand its lens offerings. APS-C brings nothing to the table whatsoever in my view (and I do have several APS-C cameras from Leica and Fuji so am not a FF bigot). But Canon should focus its resources on making a superlative system of cameras and lenses for the RF system.

The RP is already small and light--often a goal of APS-C systems. I fail to understand what value an APS-C offering would bring and why diluting Canon's resources would be a good thing.

Yes, EOS RP is small and light. Now try mounting a full frame lens on it.

I’m willing to live with the sizes of RF lenses, but let’s not kid ourselves that it’s small enough to please APS-C shooters.
