This from an FStoppers article:
"The shift does not prompt the likes of Canon and Nikon to spend more money on developing new products; by contrast, they will become increasingly conservative, a change that may have more serious implications for Nikon given its smaller range of market specializations when compared to Sony and Canon."
Hot topic. Although admittedly a small sample size/short period of time. Many in this industry want to know where this is going, both the future of advanced cameras and which players will dominate or not and maybe even survive or not.
I'd also like to know what Sonys approach, more of the same e.g., leap frog advances in short cycles or does the current slight slow down in new/refreshed FF camera bodies compared to recent years tell us something about Sonys future plans.
From my crystal ball: in one year or so C will come up with with an R+ with 5D class sensor. Also they will “leak” a future, even better RR. 2 years later the RR will show up as an R+ without the AA filter. However, the R+ and the RR will be found to be crippled in complementary ways, so you couldn’t be really happy with any of them. A mysterious R1 will be leaked at that time.
