I mean, on Sony cameras, there are artificial limitations placed on third-party lenses, too.

No faster fps than 15 isn't a big deal for most shooters I guess. Are there any other limitations?

Dunno, but if Canon imposes such a limitation there will be outrage! After all, the M6 Mk ii gets up to 40 fps.

But at least Sigma gets to come out with optics like the 35mm f/1.2 that actually challenge Sony.

Or the 85mm f/1.4 DN. I think the Tamron 35-150mm f/2.0-2.8 is eating into Sony glass sales as well.

Of course, Sony owns a sizeable chunk of Tamron, so Sony still benefits. Wonder if Sony will allow Tamron to make RF lenses?

Hmm seems like Sony may have a few fair trade restriction's to deal with.
