Assuming the discontinuation of the Canon M mount is imminent, what are your gear plans ?

I voted "other" as I will keep using some of my M gear, but at the same time "migrate to other brand crop sensor" for new gear. It is possible to have two systems, you know.

This is a though one.

I’m all over the place on this one.

Every time I think about it I come with a different conclusion.:-)

The easiest path would be to do nothing and stick to it until the end, but is not the wisest move, long term.

I am more unsure of when to start the migration. I have still a small hope that Canon will continue the M system, but how long do we have to wait to be sure on the continuation (or discontinuation)? One more month, one year? My money has started to burn in my pocket now. Lol.

Chances are slim, and they won't. Even third parties won't jump on this bandwagon due to fear on the mighty ban-hammer from Canon.

Let me be clear.....i really loved my old Canon M50, and when the price is low enough, I will jump in. I ditched M50 in protest of Canon bad marketing practice, but it doesn't stop it from being a great camera.
