If I wanted an RX-1, I’d get an RX-1 instead of waiting for Canon to make one just like it. Ditto for GR. These cameras are one-off purchases; we wouldn’t be asked to commit to a system, so it wouldn’t be a big deal to switch vendors.
Have you ever wondered the logic behind Canon's M mount system . It's about Canon's home turf , Japan . If you've seen the BCN reports about camera sales in Japan , M 4/3 sells well in Japan , ditto for the M mount system . When I'm taking photos outside , and I see single Japanese women , they're usually using M 4/3 or a Canon M mount camera . I believe what attracts single Japanese and Asian women to M4/3 and the M mount , is it's small size , the portability . There are no many lenses for the M mount because Japanese Women don't want them . And why would Canon build the M mount system just for those single Japanese women . In Japan , in traditional families , the wife holds the control over the family's purse . If Canon can sell a M mount camera to the wife while she's single , after she marries and have kids , even if the husband wants to buy a camera like a Sony , the wife will say that she's used to Canon , so the choice is already made , because eventually she'll be the one attending her kid's school events to take the pictures . Imagine a fixed lens camera with a full frame or APS C sensor , with Canon's Eye AF and "Color Science" . The Rumor sites have been uncovering lots of Patents pertinent to such cameras . Also , Canon , has been experimenting with crowdfunding in it's home turf , Japan . Just imagine if Canon went Global with it's next crowdfunding experiment !?
