Just wish Canon said something about M and aps-c plans so we knew about the direction they will take. Will they terminate it altogether or what’s going on?

I think it's a fair bet that Canon will do something. Now that something may or may not be what folks around here are looking for. The M50 Mark II (which I have), wasn't exactly what was on most folks wish list for example when it came out. It is however useful and popular. The M6 II is an example of something that is a very good tool, so much so, Sony and Fuji still haven't answered the 32MP sensor, at 14FPS for that matter, or either. One of those two just went the opposite in fact.

.

You can tell the direction Canon's going from their statements and particularly the earning reports. The R is presently where things are going. Now I do disagree with that direction, and this is coming from someone who's shot that non-L RF glass. It's just not "fun" enough. It's not small enough. Canon's trying to outdo themselves with the RF format and supercede the M with it. Good luck with that Canon.
