I think Canon put out the R7 with less abled features to get the 1.6x crowd into mirrorless but will quickly upgrade it to the R7 MK2 in under 2 years.

That makes little sense when you consider the large number of 7D Mark II uses who waited years for a 7D Mark III and then waited some more years in anticipation of an R7 which would be a worthy successor in all respects - but in reality arguably fell short in a number of areas (buffer size, readout speed, battery grip, EVF, shutter shake, weather sealing, ergonomics . . . )

Yes I bought the R7 but am still using my 7DII. I would have paid another $1,000 for a better R7 if it was indeed a 7DII successor
And now you're suggesting the Canon 'strategy' is to have us wait again for the next model before we see the true mirrorless 7DII successor . . .
