Canon's vision pieces are easy to dismiss, but when a company this size signals where it's pointing R&D, it's worth a glance — the subtext here is that sensor and AF gains are slowing, and AI is their answer to keeping upgrade cycles alive. Nothing to buy today, but if you're deep in Canon glass, this tells you the next few bodies will lean hard into computational photography rather than raw hardware specs.
