Wow? Meh.

You did well

There was a recent thread looking for any speculation whatsoever. I'll see how the participants from there feel about this 😅

WOW! New R5 II.

Meh...on cue, the day after release Canon will announce it is super duper surprised demand is so huge and regrets that supply will be constrained for the better part of a year.

Maybe not.

Maybe this time the warehouses, under strict guard on the dark side of the moon, are bulging with fully tested, flawless, ready to go cameras!

Maybe they will release the R5 Mk II and the R1 Mk III, just because they can!

Maybe the outer space cargo vessels are already on their way!

Just curious - why is registration required for WIFI and Bluetooth?

Edit: OK, so here's the answer for Bluetooth: https://support.bluetooth.com/hc/en-us/articles/360049018272-Do-I-Need-to-Qualify

I need a new body. My current one is way too heavy, girthy around the middle. It looks tired and the macro optics are beginning to wear out. 😉

It depends what you are trying to be compliant to and for.

All radios effectively need registering and covered by processes within organisations such as CE and FCC.

Compatibility I think is where the WiFi alliance comes in and the BLE SIG and to be able to utilise those names and logos.

We have an 802.11xx system but the front end is optical not RF. It is brought under the umbrella of WiFi alliance and has it's own IEEE working group. Even though this creates work for my own people this device still contains a radio and should be compliant.

The cameras I would think have an FCC license number as well.

92, the age my kids will be able to claim their pensions, probably…..

Happy belated birthday

The Panasonic Lumix S5II launched the second generation of Panasonic’s full-frame mirrorless camera system and was the first Panasonic to feature phase detect autofocus. As our review reveals, it’s a heck of an all-around camera for both still and video shooters.

The latest Lumix puts a Four Thirds sensor in a full-frame body with boosted AF and a wealth of stills and video capabilities to create a Swiss Army Knife of a Micro Four Thirds camera.

The fourth camera in Leica's SL series of full-frame mirrorless cameras sees the 60MP BSI sensor from the Q3 and M11 models arrive with a significant interface redesign.

The Fujifilm X100VI is the sixth iteration of Fujifilm's classically-styled large sensor compact. A 40MP X-Trans sensor, in-body stabilization and 6.2K video are among the updates.

The Nikon Zf is a 24MP full-frame mirrorless camera with classic looks that brings significant improvements to Nikon's mid-price cameras. We just shot a sample reel to get a better feel for its video features and have added our impressions to the review.

What’s the best camera for around $2000? This price point gives you access to some of the most all-round capable cameras available. Excellent image quality, powerful autofocus and great looking video are the least you can expect. We've picked the models that really stand out.

What's the best camera for travel? Good travel cameras should be small, versatile, and offer good image quality. In this buying guide we've rounded-up several great cameras for travel and recommended the best.

If you want a compact camera that produces great quality photos without the hassle of changing lenses, there are plenty of choices available for every budget. Read on to find out which portable enthusiast compacts are our favorites.

'What's the best mirrorless camera?' We're glad you asked.

Above $2500 cameras tend to become increasingly specialized, making it difficult to select a 'best' option. We case our eye over the options costing more than $2500 but less than $4000, to find the best all-rounder.
