Agree. All manufacturers are in the business of selling cameras and making money, and Canon has done that better than any other for decades. Canon currently sells more cameras than all the others put together. WE may lust after more dynamic range, higher ISO, more pixels etc etc, but we've had more than enough of all these things for some time now and most buyers are more pragmatic.
If Canikon finally put all their weight behind mirrorless in the coming year, I think their timing will be just right. IMHO, it's only since Sony came out with the A9 and A7iii that mirrorless came of age with real benefits. If Canikon can match that, they will be very successful, not because of the brand label, but because these new cameras will come, in effect, with a) a free set of our favourite lenses, and b) a user-interface that's familiar and comfortable. We'll feel right at home straight away.
