It's great that more budget oriented models are coming.

At the same time, incredibly frustrating that Canon didn't take mirrorless seriously enough at first, and is culling the 10 year old M system while clumsily modding many of the lenses to fit RF mount. Almost seems unthinkable from a world leading photography business to make such a mess.

I guess you could say the same for Nikon, except the 1 series at least didn't overlap with the z system so much, and they realised their mistake much earlier.

I understand the frustration of EF users feeling abandoned, but the EF system has had a good run, and sometimes things need to change in the name of progress, but I do feel for M users.
