A7C announced
#7
If vlogging is all that remains of the system camera market, it is dead already.

If "this class" means small FF, the A7 III seems to be more desirable (smaller and lighter). The Canon RP could be the most desirable "small FF" camera (good ergonomics, 300 grams lighter than that S5) if it had the R6 sensor (for those who feel they need high DR hidden in base ISO RAW) and a full mechanical shutter. But it has neither.

The decent 28-60mm f4-5.6 is not really wide enough to do what the camera is pitched at: "Vlogging". Nor is it playing to the strengths of an FF camera (small max aperture).
So, more a camera for people who heard they should want an FF camera without understanding when FF brings something extra and when it does not. As confused maybe as its name (why call it A7c, and not A5?).

With barely any reasonably priced RF lenses, the question remains - why Canon at all in this class?
Sure, the R5 with all the high-end stuff is awesome but that's about it at this point in time.
