Stakeouttoo

at first I gave it a thought to switch over from my DSLR to mirrorless .. then I said.. for what??.. how much better can the pics I take get with mirrorless  that I need to start all over again ...

hmmmm.. let's see---  an R5 for 2021 or better yet.. I'll take a 7dMkIII..  uh -oh did I just say that   :)  here it comes  ---have the plugs in my ears already  :) :)

I said this at the very beginning.. currently Canon is playing catchup with mirrorless-- it all is a matter of will Canon bite the bullet and go for a lower fair price at under $3kUS for the R5 ...

because Canon is hurting in this economy.. and well behind the other Companies in the mirrorless game..  they have to do something to get their market share back.. a lower price is the way to do ...

I'm still going with my original guess--->  $2999US

fantastic Ray..  keep it going... would you ever try doing a 'Smudge' from this one.. just thinking out loud  :) and what a great Flickr site  .. wow  :)

only marketing move Canon can make in this economic environment with this new R5 -- come in with a price under 3k -- a steal at $2999.99.. will blow the competition away..  let's see how smart ...

mirrorless--just another make money marketing gimmick.. the way I see it Canon just threw all us DSLR users under the bus..  who cares about 8k with the R5.. actually for me who cares about taking ...

in Canon video from yesterday about the R5 IBIS + IS .. he does not mention specific lenses.. just 'lenses'.. here's a clip from that take  go to 55:21 on this you tube video https://youtu.be/Eedhy ...

it's ON now.. in the beginning it showed the R5 as a NEW product along with the other products they are introducing UPDATE: at the very end.. just some fluff announcement about the R5 .. for later ...

I guess either way with your 'stimulus check'  in hand you would have a penny left  :) :)

great pics as always.. that's good keeping that social distancing away from those big guys  :) :)

pretty shots.. nicely done  :)

pretty neat pic.. btw.. I thought you were pretty clear in explaining what the pic was in your initial post-- bird feeder and all.. :)

exactly.. you don't have to show and tell.. I saw them.. BUT NOT the body only..  they are getting rid of their stock kits -- as I said NO body only

I'm just going by what I checked on--- 7d II body Not Available at the Canon store--US I don't make this stuff up https://www.usa.canon.com/internet/portal/us/home/products/wheretobuy?sku=US_9128B0 ...

as for 7dII.. NONE are available on the Canon Products site..  I just checked..

still hanging in there for the 7dIII ...patience, patience, patience

once again beautifully done..  you are thee 'master of smudging'.. wow.. great stuff.. :) stay well ..stay safe.. stay healthy.. so I guess that means stay at home..

just thinking out loud here... with the advent of mirrorless and the way Canon seems to be pushing it.. and the unfortunate serious events with the Coronavirus scaling production down thruout the ...
