Re - would you buy 39mpx, 5ms read, 30fps, CFEx


There is a thread https://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/1938265/ that has much more discussion of R7II

but basically my assumption is:
Canon can make money buy selling R7II at $2500 if sufficient volume.

The question is whether there are enough people willing to pay $2500, to make it a attractive camera for most Canon users.

For it to be really attactive it would be:
39mpx APSC R7ii
sensor read speed in mid single digits (6ms like the R5II) which is a stacked BSI sensor likely
30fps
CFExpress B 1 slot and a significant buffer like 100 in craw
4k downsample 60fps
Updating software for precapture, CLOG 3 but not clog2
Liimited time at 8k video (heat issues)
[adding stop and a 1/3 less iso capability than r5ii]
[adding iq better than using a 1.4x on a full frame camera]

Please leave your discussion on thread https://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/1938265/ so we don't have two discussions.
