Both the R50 and the R8 don’t have a true mechanical shutter anymore and the sensor readout isn’t the fastest.

I own a R5 and a M6 II which complement each other in a great way. But I don’t see myself buying a cr*pple-hammered lower budget RF(-S) camera which kind of looks like a toy camera from Amazon, but in black.

The M mount still feels like something special for me that we won’t get from Canon in a very long time.

How is it not a true shutter? Presumably they could do a first curtain if they wanted to in firmware?

they are pretty much as fast as can be without stacked or global shutter
