Canon Might Have An RF-mount Fisheye Zoom In The Pipeline

Rf 5.2mm F/2.8L
View Post

Nothing surprising here. Why should Canon not work on a fisheye zoom lens for the EOS R system.

Rumor has it that…:

[…] a zoom fisheye similar to the EF version will be coming for the RF mount. It will be an “all-new” optical design and will work just fine on both crop and full-frame cameras.

For the time being, Canon only released the RF 5.2mm f/2.8L USM Dual Lens Fisheye for the EOS R system. The RF 5.2mm aims at virtual reality applications.

As usual, take it with salt. Unless the usual few Japanese sites confirm it, it’s just educated speculation.

Stay tuned, or even better: don’t, and get out taking pics.

Canon EOS R5 Replacement Coming Q4 2023?

Canon EOS R5 Review
View Post

Another shift in the expected announcement date for the successor of the Canon EOS R5. I’d take this one with the same salt mine as the others. In other words: do not be suprised when after the Summer the rumored announcement will be in 2024.

However, the latest has it that a “very good source” suggested the replacement for the EOS R5 will be a Q4 2023 affair. But there is more. Another rumor coming from the same source states that Canon may release two EOS R5s. One is the EOS R5 Mark II and the other is a unique high-resolution EOS R5 camera (the long rumored high resolution EOS R). The truth is, no one know shit until the usual few Japanese sites are leaking something solid. Everything else, in 90% of the cases, is just bla bla yadda yadda.

Forget bs rumors and go out snapping photos, it’s healthier.

It seems that during the G7 in Japan a Canon camera was used that no one can identify. So why not suggest it could be the Canon EOS R1?

The heat started on Twitter, where some users posted images of the mysterious camera. Have a look:

Then someone posted a clip where you can see the camera.

It looks indeed like no other Canon camera we know. Might this be the Canon EOS R1? What are your thoughts?

A new super expensive RF 200-500mm f/4L IS lens for the EOS R system? It looks like according to the latest rumor emerging from the interweb of rumor mills.

Says the source of the rumor:

Canon’s EF 500mm f/4L IS USM II is going to be a zoom for the RF mount first. We have confirmed that a Canon RF 200-500mm f/4L IS USM will likely be coming in Q4, or perhaps in Q1 of 2024 ahead of the Canon EOS R1.

The Canon RF 200-500mm f/4L IS USM will not come with a built-in teleconverter.

Another RF lens that will cost like a small car.
