Canon is big enough to keep multiple mounts going as long as they are making profits with each mount. I guess we'll see what rabbit Canon pulls out of the hat with respect to the 30mpux APS sensor. Let's not forget the huge majority of photographers are not bit heads that measure noise at high ISO nor dynamic range...but just take photos. We can always point at technical deficiencies in the Canon lineup...but it's the market leader by a long shot...and from the glass they are releasing, I have my suspicions they'll surprise many with their pro level cameras.
They have always had great glass, that hasn't prevented them from releasing a long stream of lukewarm bodies.
The issue with Canon is their mindset. They aren't serving their customers, they are milking them.
They are by far the most arrogant company I have ever been in touch with.
Now Nikon releasing a D6...are they serious about mirrorless at the professional level? Where is the mirrorless version of the D6?
The release of the D6 is completely normal. What isn't is the lack of 1Dx mkIII, but it is 100% certain it is going to come very soon.
Are you going to question whether Canon is serious about mirrorless when it does?
The reality today is that 99% of sports pro still shoot with DSLRs. Addressing this market is simply listening to the photographers.
I am fully aware that mirrorless is the future and as of now the H6D-100c remains my only digital camera with a mirror, but this doesn't mean that we are already there.
I guess you also believe that most people drive a Tesla?
