Re: RF-S Lenses - What We Know and What is Rumored

RF-S is a joke. For now.

I truly feel bad for those that invested in that system unless you are a bird/sports photog.

The complaints for how canon treated the EF-S lineup was the stuff of legend. The M followed the same path. And now...

..why does anyone thing it will be different? :-|AND the lens designs are getting cheaper/worse, with ugly slower apertures. + more expensive. What a great deal!

If you think my words are filed with pessimism...well sir you are correct. But its not from malice. I would love to have an r10, but no ibis and no lenses means its not a good buy.

Also, I find it super ironic how the EFM lineup, eternally lambasted by dpreview mobs, is way more fleshed out than RFS. Lens wise, literally EVERYTHING's better for the M. Say hello to the sigma EFM 30 mm1.4, or the 16, or the 56....great stuff.

RFS will have a decent chace if it rehouses the very few M lenses. After that? Good luck. This gonna be a dead mount sooner than yall think. *
