Mirrorless fans ......

<p>Another rumor of a full frame Canon mirrorless at Photokina<br /> http://www.ubergizmo.com/2016/04/24mp-full-frame-canon-mirrorless-rumor/</p>

<p>who's excited ?<br /> Whaa... you're not ? already fully invested in the APS-C 'M' line ?<br /> got enuff G1X ?</p>

<p>want a 1.3 crop model ?</p>

<p> </p>

<p>They will do one one day, hopefully one that can take EF lenses directly. Somehow I doubt it will be this year. They will certainly beef up the EOS-M line. A prosumer one for Photokina is quite likely, I reckon.</p>

<p>I'm not excited. I already have a mirrorless system with several lenses. Even if Nikon introduced a mirrorless body for their lenses, it wouldn't interest me since the lenses don't shrink with the body.</p>

<p>Besides the fact that lenses don't shrink the EF or F mount was designed to accomodate the mirror and that space has to be there even though the camera doesn't need the mirror.</p>

<p>Well, Canon know enough to copy a beautiful camera when they see it...the Nex 7 !</p>

<p>BeBu,</p>

<p>True, the mount would need to maintain the same flange to sensor distance, but there are other reasons to go mirrorless, like fewer moving parts, real-time viewing, etc. However, given Nikon's lack of capability with CDAF, it remains to be seen if they can produce a mirrorless body that's even remotely close to their SLRs.</p>
