Canon DSLRs have the suffix D for digital (1D, 5D, 7D, etc.)
What does the prefix R in the R series stand for (R, RP, R3, R5, etc.)?
Just curious.
What makes you believe the D in the model designation actually stands for anything, other than part of the model designation. What does the G in Canon G1X or any other G series Canon digital camera stand for? And, if DSLR'S are called DSLR'S, why do so many people refer to MILC'S as simply mirrorless? None of my bridge or super zooms have a mirror in them, which makes them "mirrorless", yet they aren't referred to as mirrorless cameras!
By the way, the R is taken from the first letter in "Reimagine Optical Excellence".
