I don't hate to say "I told you so", because I told you so. The M line is officially dead, with the announcement of the R50.

Sorry. I must have missed that. Where was it officially announced?

Not like these tea leaves were hard to read. The M50 MkII is still a great camera for some niche uses, but it hasn't had a future for years, already.

I know there are a lot of M users who disagree with that.

The M line had one advantage over the R line, and that was the 22 mm F/2 lens.

M line has 4 advantages over RF-S which are

  • 22 f/2.0
  • 32 f/1.4.
  • 11-22
  • Sigma trio

The M system will have some very important advantages over the R system for a long long time:

Size (M6/M200,+lenses), weight (M200, +lenses), smal excellent lenses (the list is too long to repeat in every post.) to name a few.
