If the R8 lifts the 30 minute record time limit, has the R sensor (or something newer), 10 fps, and some level of sealing, as well as the new AF, it might cure me of my R6II gas for lower cost gas. 😁

IBIS would be a bonus. And they might get raked over the coals with PR if they don’t include IBIS. I’m fine with one card slot. And I don’t need a super EVF.

I know the R8 chatter started as an R/RP replacement rumor. Then the R7 and R10 were released so all the rumors shifted to it being APS-C. Glad it’s not APS-C. I just didn’t see where there was room to wedge between the R7 and R10.

It’s a fair bet this is either the R sensor or R6 (mark I) sensor. I doubt they’re giving it anything more at this price point. It may do say 8fps+ though. Even the R sensor is impressive compared to the RP. ADC and 30MP, faster readout. No small potatoes. R6 would be IBIS and 4K.
