Meaningless. Good luck seeing any of it "trickle-down" (does "trickle-down" sound familiar to anyone?) to their innovation-starved camera division. I feel empathy for skilled engineers in Canon's camera division, who would no doubt bring us so much more if "Big Corporation" strategic budgeting didn't so effectively eviscerate their ideas and competencies. Dodder along, Canon, as you lose customer after potential repeat camera customer. The camera division should be spun-off so as to be independent and allowed to take risks and RUN with their ideas and technology.
A fine thing, including some occasional material geared to beginner's.
Encountering everything geared to the (presumably) experienced or expert photographer can be like trying to sip from a fire hose for a novice!
Any new Epson model is no doubt designed to clog frequently, then spew vast quantities of overpriced ink in its ongoing attempts to clean nozzles. This is what all their models do!
It is Epson's fundamental mission: waste, then sell, overpriced ink.
If this is his glorious fantasy, his art, while living in beautiful Colorado, this molding disparate objects into... killing weapons, I only wish I could stick him with a one way ticket to Raqqa, Syria.
It's not interesting or pleasing, at any level. Go live amidst Daesh - Isis, they'll love it.
Plowshares into swords stinks.
sierranvin: This pair has made a strong choice about what to make of personal freedom.
I salute them for their boldness, esp. the initial "leap". I enjoyed their video.
I hope they pay some attention to what must be an extraordinary carbon footprint and do what they can to mitigate it when possible. All frequent travelers would do well to consider this, and what may or may not be left for future generations.

@" little scottie" - Here's wishing you an early transfer to full time life and work in Beijing and/or Delhi, where you can scoff at air quality concerns all you want - in between coughing spasms.

Ian Leach: The locations are stunning and the photos beautifully done, but the spiritual journey dialogue doesn't sit well with what is clearly a commercial enterprise. Everything in the media now days seems to have loads of deep meaning dialogue attached. I'd prefer 'look at this, it's quite nice'. Maybe I'm just a party pooper.
@ Ian
I'm riding my unicycle around the entire coast of Alaska, and hugging each polar bear and walrus I see, all for World Peace and Cancer.

She could get more if she threatens to unleash sharks with lasers on their heads inside Chipotle locations!
"Nurse, this patient is DOA. Call the coroner. Which patient is next?"
mar2jeter: Yawn....Canon is so far behind Panasonic and Olympus when it comes to features.
@ pb 'n j - you may have a fun cannon, but this dull offering is just DOA!
sierranvin: This camera appears to offer an efficient, highly functional touchscreen feature set, something the lunkheads at Sony can't seem to figure out (despite their selling full-featured touchscreen mobile phones)!
(doesn't anyone at Sony EVER get embarrassed???)

sierranvin: This is precious info, and I'll be selling all my Sony gear and Zeiss lenses, esp. the Otus, so I can get Cannon for my cat photography work!
That's the spirit, Tom!
I'm glad I'm not the only one who appreciates such expertise to guide us!

Thanks to the team for all the detail you provide and analyze, it really helps me optimize my gear!
And here's to a Happy New Year ahead!
sierranvin: The tiny sensor and lack of raw make this offering a wheezy-breezy joke.
C'mon, Sony, give us something good, something that serious photographers can take everywhere as their superzoom backup camera in case any of their more elaborate kit breaks out in the field, days from any urban center!
How about a full-frame sensor in the RX-10 III?
I understand your cynicism, mario, but it is the best opportunity/concept to premiere a curved sensor. So, a real advance, the same size as RX-10 III, NOT rocket launcher.

I don't think Cartier-Bresson is going to be displaced soon...
Ran Plett: I captured no photos, but was successfully able to argue that Canon has covered no ground on exposure latitude, Nikon continues to make over priced lenses, Sony cameras overheat, Pentax is, well, Pentax, all m4/3 lenses offer little in terms of "equivalence," medium format mirrorless is hardly better than a 5DsR, Tim Cook is slowly killing Apple, Samsung will burn your house down, all samples photos posted on this site were not captured by real photographers, all camera reviews get an unfair rating compared to other cameras, caring about image quality is pointless pixel peeping, and... deep breath... it's important to have three or four camera systems to compensate for the above mentioned shortcomings.
Ran, I am heartbroken that you omitted selfie-sticks from your summary of the year's crucial gains in the dpreview collective consciousness.
