I was wondering: Is the RF 24-50mm a serious threat for crop RF camera's? The R7 will be fine as a teleconverter the luxe, but the R10 and R50 might get some competition from used RPs and Rs flooding the second hand market to be paired with this very compact RF 24-50mm. The RF-s zooms are starting at 18mm (29ish equivalent), and the ef-m 15-45mm will never see future M bodies. A used R is only 1000 euro, and that price will even go down further in the future. That 24-50mm is 300 euro or so? 1300 euro. Who's buying an R10 or R50 with this kind of competition around?

I might. R50 + 18-55 + 55-210 = $1029 USD

R8 + 24-50 = $1699 USD

18-150 standing in for the 55-200, which is about the same length.

Now I'll say that R8 + 24-50 represents some serious image quality per pound, and dollar.
