Thank you very much for your kind post,

I am just trying to put things in perspective from my side. Anyone's angle is different, but facts are facts and we have to respect all the angles, but the facts also!

Another fact is that the new R6 announced today is only 20megapixels..and a 2.499$ camera. That will cause pause to many professionals that will need some extra of those (crop). Imagine that a camera 5 years ago (NX1) had 28 usable ones!

The price list is:

Canon EOS R5 $3899

Canon EOS R5 w/24-105mm f/4L IS USM $4999

Canon EOS R6 $2499

Canon EOS R6 w/24-105mm IS STM $2899

Canon EOS R6 w/24-105mm f/4L IS USM $3599

The prices for U.K are R5 £4199 and R6 £2499.

and A French retailer lists the Canon EOS R5 price at €4,549, that is close to 5200$(!!).

On more related news Nikon is going to announce more pro versions of their Z6(s) and Z7(s).

This is quite different than buying 700$ cameras kit, and depending the market, very difficult to change mounts.

The market is shrinking (Olympus out), the prices are increasing. A lot of people will stay with their NX until they broke, and they seem to last!

All the best to you and your family.
