A first look and initial specs for the Canon EOS RP have leaked. Here’s what we know so far…

Video? If they shift away from consumer products... they will be bankrupt within a year.

I'm waiting for this camera to go on sale. I love to travel and plan my second trip to Savannah in a year. I am delighted with wild animals, tiger tours and incredible nature. This Camera will be able to transfer to Savannah in all colors

While I love my Sony A6000, it does sometimes feel hard to use and still have a hard time with the menus. I still haven't ditched my old Canon 60D either, but Canon cameras just have a really easy user experience. Would be nice to see them step their game up.

I'm really curious to see how it'll fare with video. I'm in need of a new camera right now: something that'll won't break the bank, still allows an adapter for my EF lenses, and produces great images for projects. Too much to ask? I guess we'll see.
