Not really. The G85 and G7 seem to be handling 4k fine. Canon IMO held back the 80D from 4k to push people towards the mark IV.


You can argue and defend Canon, saying its due to heat [and then point towards the A6300/A6500 as evidence, but I think thats more down to a rubbish battery, a smaller than necessary battery etc.] but I disagree. Its pretty much OBVIOUS canon hold back tech and push users towards more expensive models.

The latest 6D for example is a travesty given the price tag and lack of 4k.


I am not a fanboy of ANY camera brand. I try to be logical and impartial. Its pretty much very obvious by now Canon gimp their cameras and Sony do the opposite but overprice their lenses. Its just picking your poison at this point.

Of course Canon held back the tech on this camera. What manuafuter puts all the top features on a low end camera? If they did this no one would bother buying anything higher.
I hardly think anyone wan looking for a 4K camera will be pushed to buy a £3000 DSLR just because they want 4K, and especially not the 5D4 with its cropped 4K.

So far you have called the 80D and 6DII a travesty. That shows me these aren’t the cameras for you, but I don’t see their sales slowing down. If people want 4K they wont buy a camera that doesn’t have it, plenty more choices in those price ranges.

If Sony don’t gimp their cameras why are there so many of them? Why not one with all these amazing features? To me this is exactly what you are accusing Canon of doing. That really doesnt sound like an impartial statement.

Canon's sales are down to excellent marketting, ergonomics, colour science and brand recognition... alongside the multiple failings of Sony until lately in battery life, ergonomics, colour science.

A 4k camera should not cost £3k as shown by Panasonic and most other brands who have been offering it for a while.

However, I detect you are a canon fanboy.

I can't be bothered to continue. I hold alliance to neither brand and I'm fairly impartial (I own neither a Sony or a Canon at present). I like having neutral well reasoned debated. Having a debate with someone who is a fanboy is a waste of my time.

Its quite obvious Sony in many ways when looking at the A73 (dual card slots, the second best af they've ever had, excellent low light, same sensor nearly as the a9 etc. etc.) are trying to push tech to the limits for the price. Canon aren't.



The next 10 years will be really interesting in the camera game and I look forward to it.

There's no need for the trite fanboy accusations, just because someone disagrees with you.

DSLRs are simply not the cameras of choice when it comes to 4k. I'd say any inclusion from Canikon is one of necessity, rather than design, with everyone thinking every possible device needs it.

No one with a grain of sense is buying a DSLR primarily for video, let alone 4k. I don't see much point in including it in what are almost exclusively stills cameras. There's plenty of offerings from the mirrorless world that will beat, hands down, anything Canikon are going to put in their DSLRs. Aiming at completely different markets.

Well as an update I purchased the M50 from John Lewis a couple of days ago and have received it and used it a couple of times.
First impressions are good and can see it being the perfect camera for what I enjoy doing.

Cheers
