The mail reasons for my general dislike of the R7 is: - form factor - too small, too fiddly, controls in odd places. - throttled performance - I regularly shoot with different sizes or formats in different card slots. As soon as you have the added processing needed for this the buffer slows...

Its a slightly odd question. I make sure I buy the right camera in the first place for my needs at the time. Currently thats mostly sports photography. The 1DX Mk II I currently use most I bought in 2018. At some point it will get replaced, because its a working tool, and I'll probably...
