Teardown of the Canon EOS R Mirrorless Camera

 

 

So, which would I buy, right now? None of the above; I don’t know enough yet, and I try very hard to avoid Generation 1 technology. If you forced me into a corner and said: “if you made your living with a camera, what would you shoot today?” I’d say either a Sony with a lot of adapted lenses or an SLR.

Good insight into what Canon have done... and not done.

 

I find it a bit astounding that camera companies take a DSLR, remove the mirror, prism, AF and metering sensors, thus reducing the need for alignment of same, take away half of the body material.... and then increase the price by around 20%!

Two tear-downs published this week, first a Nikon E7 then a Canon R. From Sony's point of view, that's a good start ;)

 

I just purchased a Fotodiox Sony-Nikon (F) adapter, which allows camera control of the aperture for chipped lenses, and auto-focus for AF-S lenses. It wouldn't surprise me if someone did the same for Sony lenses on the E6/7.
