Here we go again. Another thread where consumers get to defend a giant corporation from being criticized by other consumers who want other consumers and themselves to have choices. Just weird.

When you think about it, Canon was the best thing that ever happened to Sony. The obstinate attachment to DSLRs, the slow migration to FF mirrorless - they created an opening for Sony to exploit.

There is a choice, as I have shared. For entry-level FF, I have picked the Sony A7C and plan to pick up the A7Cii once released. It's my travel companion. The R6Mii and R7 continue to be my workhorses.

I should thank Canon. If it were not for its current attitude towards third-party lenses, I would not have been introduced to the wonderful possibilities offered by the Sony system.
