...........updates including eye detect in AF-S / AF-C............

.........Nikon has a huge advantage of Canon..........the ability to give video shooters the "whole shebang" in terms of video features...........while Canon continues to cripple it's ML in one way or another, no IBIS and cropped 4K....frame rates etc.......to protect it's video camara line.......(no secret of course).
In fact Canon's real trump card is their flip out screen.............. has it got some some patent protection?...........I know that other manufacturers have used it.....one of the Nikon D5000 series (and others)..........but was it under license and the manufacturer decide to pay the rights?
Every ML camera review asks the same question............"Why no flip out screen?".......... the competition concocts all sorts of weird and wonderful mechanisms to try and offer similar articulations.......Pentax moon landing module style......the Sony's A6400 flip up and over......Nikon's flip up and down only.
Canon will have to decide whether they want to deprive their ML cameras from features of their dedicated video range...........once and for all...
.............they can't rely solely on the flippy out screen........
