![]() ![]() The lens lineup, as indicated by PetaPixel, will likely be highlighted by a 100-500mm f/4.5-7.1L IS USM lens, which would presumably be super pricey as well. Canon has also confirmed that it would launch seven new lenses in the RF-mount lens lineup, as well as two extenders for Canon's EOS R range of mirrorless cameras. ![]() While no word has been mentioned in terms of the price of the EOS R5, interested users can expect it to be well within the established flagship camera pricing range. Given that it is a new generation product, the EOS R5 will also likely come with a nifty touchscreen to make AF selection and general usage easier. The handgrip looks fairly sizeable on the camera, while there is no integrated flash module in the camera. In terms of its appearance, the Canon EOS R5 looks like a typical flagship grade mirrorless camera, following a staid design language. Sony Alpha A6600 Mirrorless Camera With 18-135mm Lens 1,398.00 (List Price 1,599.99) Canon EOS R100 24.1 MP Mirrorless Camera 499.00 (List. This would significantly improve the slow motion frame rates in oversampled video workflows, and put Canon squarely in a territory that is typically dominated by Sony.Ĭanon has further stated that its flagship camera will come with two memory card slots, which is typical in a flagship grade camera. In terms of videography, the Canon EOS R5 should be able to shoot at 8K at 30fps, and alternately, 4K videos at 120fps. The leak also affirmed the continuous shooting rates, which would reach 12fps on mechanical shutter. The confirmation comes in line with a leak that stated that a flagship-grade Canon camera is in works, which would bring a 45-megapixel full frame image sensor to the fray. ![]() The camera will be able to shoot up to 8K videos, come with in-body image stabilisation, and sport an impressive 20fps continuous shooting rate (with electronic shutter). Confirmed information from Canon states that the EOS R5 will feature a newly designed CMOS sensor as well as a new image processor, which should theoretically offer a noticeable performance bump in the camera. Reportedly called Canon EOS R5, the camera is officially in development right now, and speculations suggest that it may launch some time in mid or late 2020. It’s likely that most of you, as readers of this website, are more interested in the higher-end fare from Canon and co – but it’s the higher-volume sellers that make the camera world go round, and models such as the EOS R50 and EOS R8 will undoubtedly help us get up to speed again.Canon has confirmed the development of its next flagship-grade full frame mirrorless camera, according to a report by PetaPixel. More generally, the disruptions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic have seen the camera-makers concentrate more on the high-end to the detriment of sales volumes overall, with a resulting contraction of the market.Ĭanon’s return to making more affordably-priced but competitive interchangeable lens cameras actually benefits all of us in one way or another – and, hopefully, will convince more activity from others in this area as, right now, anything priced at below, say $750, is pretty long in the tooth. Remember, too, that volume sales of these models help finance the development of the higher-end products – both camera bodies and lenses. While the EOS R3, R6 Mark II and R7 are classically Canon competent, it’s with lower-end models that it truly excels and where, in DSLRs, it made the bulk of its profits. The resumption of normal service is very much evident in the most recent EOS R models: the EOS R8, the EOS R50 and even the budget-busting R100. There still isn’t a direct EOS R system equivalent, but Canon is now adamant that it won’t be developing any new DSLRs – and it definitely seems to feel better after getting that out of the way. Actually it’s the best DSLR ever built, period. Both looked designed not to lure users away from their full-frame DSLRs and then, in early 2020, came the best DSLR that Canon had ever built: the EOS-1D X Mark III. Yet the Canon EOS R – and, later, the EOS RP – also suggested that Canon still wasn’t completely sure of the way ahead. It’s well known that the senior execs of major Japanese corporations confide in each other about what they’re up to (at least in broad terms), and that’s what happened here – probably on the 19th tee over a Suntory single malt whisky. It was no coincidence either that, close to five years later, Canon and Nikon ended up unveiling their full-frame mirrorless cameras within a couple of weeks of each other. And when you think about it now, how provocative was the Alpha name? Alpha: the first in order or in class. Given how long it takes to develop an entirely new camera system, it seems very likely that the decision bite the bullet on a DSLR-killing mirrorless system was taken at around the time Sony took the wraps off Alpha (towards the end of 2013).
