I cut my teeth with digital back in 1990 . Yes 30 years ago. Nikon, Kodak and a few others. Not so much Canon but I did have there 1DS in 2002. I actually bought C1 for it for 500 dollars.
Best digital camera they ever made. Had a very organic look. After that in my book they went to shit in a handbasket. One nice thing back than was adapting Leica and Zeiss lenses. I’ve never ever looked back on Canon. Nikon I did when I sold all my medium format digital I bought Nikon again. To say you feel bad for them or there new is a load of junk. I started 45 years ago with Nikon . Sony beat the crap out of both of them. And they still are. Any tech that’s been going on is more evolutionary not revolutionary. The only reason canon got into mirrorless is the market share Sony stole from them. They not only sat on there ass and let Sony take them to the cleaners but they let there base down as well. The real question here and proof is how many left Canon in recent years. Now it’s just catch up.
Nice to see them do something but a Sony shooter switch now ,one has to ask how smart that might be. Unless there is a very specific reason than I don’t see it as a smart move.
