Yes very different, it has many advantages the best being able to get a real idea about exposure, I tend to lean towards the edge of under exposure, I just like darker backgrounds and brighter subject sometimes in my opinion gives a look like flash was used when it wasnt. The EVF makes that very easy. Something I would consider a disadvantage it makes me lazier, With my DSLR I have to pan and be dead on with my focus point with the R7 I can be a bit slower as long as I stay close the subject/eye detect will keep bird in focus throughout the frame so I wonder how long it will be before the art of mastering tracking will be lost, also with the in camera stabilization on top of the lens stabilization I dont have to be as careful with how I am bracing the camera, when I first got it I tested in my house 1/15 second hand held 100-400MKII mounted and shot was sharp. Now of course as I am aging and getting more hand shake that is nice,but again how long before the only thing important to shooting will be the operators eye for framing and thats it? Who knows maybe the R50 will even suggest best framing and do that as well? Can you tell I am getting old? Screaming from the roof tops the robots are taking over? For me shooting a minimum of 100 shots a day just because I love being out in nature and my shots are just more memories of the day its great and does give me better looking memories. But you guys shooting older gear and making them look stunning are the real artist regardless of gear.

The art of panning is something I'm hoping to someday master. I envy you.

I wouldn't say any of my photos are stunning, certainly compared with what you can find on the DPR forums.

Practice, practice, and practice I guess.

In the regards to the R50, there is already a canon camera that uses AI to zoom and frame shots - the Canon Powershot Pick . So who knows?
