i absolutely 100% agree with you here as of now .. unfortunately for me, having a camera with no EVF is not an option ..the AF was not up to it in the M5 and when it became obvious there was to be ...

Every time someone says XXX MILC cost so much more than the XXX DSLR it is replaced when i look up the launch MRRP  of the DSLR and then put that price through an inflation calculator it ends up ...

i think by not updating the better selling flagship namely the M5 and no lenses since about 2018 canon was clearly actively encouraging folk to move to the R mount ...it worked with me.. although ...

Nope,,,,, the R10 to all intent and perpus is the same size and weight as the M5..infact the M5 is a little taller  so the mount has no bearing on the body size and the RF 18-150 is the same size  ...

depends on how long you were with canon ..the fuji control method is just about a copy of the Canon A1 film camera...

Did you mean to say, I'm not giving up my M cameras (I love the lightness of them) However, I have just purchased a Fuji X-T5 with a 16-80 lens ? I don't understand your use of the word and in the ...

i would probably watch F1 again if the driver with the most points started at the back of the grid and the drivers got most of their pay from the points they win...then there would be some overtaking

the footage from the rally car was brilliant to watch ..the footage from the F1 car confirms why i have not watched F1 for the last 20 years when i switched off from the vid after a minute or 2

all my canon DSLRs from a 20D for a typical scene needed no permanent EC. i tend to use center weighted for metering. except for a 40D i had which needed -1/3 or -1/2 a stop since I have had MILCs ...

you got reported for having a dog off its lead to you take a photo of the sign

the canon 7D and the Nikon D500 are niche products..Sony never made one in E mount
Nikon spaned 15 years with 2 models (the 300s was just a refresh) the canon 7D series was available for over 13...

i stick to an old analog BS meter...much more reliable they last for years

PAntunes so do the Sii make a great sports camera if you can't afford the R3 as in your OP

why would a canon adaptor tilt the lens ...if that is a thing then folk would be complaining about tilted lenses with the canon 1.4 and 2X extenders ...i have not heard anyone that doesn't say EF...

i think you are confusing the MKii with the 24-105STM  kit lens at 3128.50GBP..the MKii with the 24-105L is 3998GBP... cheaper if you go gray import

or you could get a secondhand R6mki for 1600 quid or new for 1958 or a gray import with a better warranty than from a canon authorized dealer for 1880 quid..is a MkII worth the best part of 1K more??

PNutunes you just moved the goalpost from your OP, you say
>>>>Great for sports photographers who can't afford the R3.

Everyone else, probably better cameras out there<<<<<

When questioned about ...

MILC man without rewatching the vid i don't think they say the AF was perfect but very much improved or similar words used which you can not deny as does look very much improved..
i dont think...

PAntunes i probably do not want old kit lenses but a LOT of EF lenses are still very good to day my EF80-200F2,8L is vey good its was not until the latest EF70-200mkii that ther was a sharper...

not really , it don't mater what parentage of folk with a smartphone has replaced real cameras the fact is the point and shoot market has literally gone because of the phone  and lower/mid end ...
