A list of specifications for the upcoming Canon EOS RP full frame mirrorless camera emerged from the web.

We expect Canon to make a major mirrorless related announcement on February 14, 2019. Five upcoming RF lenses have already leaked.

We know (now) that the EOS RP will be an entry level model in the EOS R line-up, these are the suggested specifications:

  • Camera weight is 400g, the lightest full-frame mirrorless camera ever
  • A side-articulated monitor and a comfortable grip
  • A new 24MP CMOS sensor. Expect the performance similar to EOS R
  • No Touch Bar and top monitor but an extra dial
  • 5FPS
  • Standard ISO 100-40000
  • Eye AF now supports Servo AF and Video AF
  • Dual Pixel AF speed is 0.05 sec.
  • USB-C and headphone jack are available. Battery charging while shooting issupported
  • Canon Log, HDMI clean output, and 1.56x 4K crop
  • Price is about $1300USD for body (We’re really hoping it’s priced this aggressively)

Take this with a grain of salt. It looks legit but we have no confirmation. Some of the stuff above looks to good for an entry level full frame mirrorless camera made by Canon. Our information about the price differs, we have been told the EOS RP will sell at $1,600.

Stay tuned…

RF 15-35mm F/2.8L IS USM
RF 24-70mm F/2.8L IS USM

Canon’s next full frame mirrorless camera will most probably not be a high resolution model as we wrote. It will be a competitively priced entry level model.

A good source told us it will sell at $1,600, and have one card slot, which is to expect at this price. The moniker EOS RP is most likely.

So far we do not have more specifications to share but I’m sure more information will show up soon.

Stay tuned.

Information About A Canon EOS R Model With 26MP Making Rounds

A rumor claiming that a Canon EOS R model with 26MP is in Canon’s pipeline is making its rounds on the web.

The rumor builds on a post by Nokishita dated March 2018, where a list of unreleased Canon gear is published (see image below).

UPDATE: we posted the wrong model number. There is indeed a unreleased 26MP full frame mirrorless camera.

  • Mirrorless camera
  • Full size [full frame, editor’s note]
  • Wi-Fi · Bluetooth installed
  • Maximum image size of test machine: 6240 × 4160 [makes up to 26MP, editor’s note]
  • Probably will be released within 1 year data as 5D Mark IV [K349], the image size may be a dummy possibility)

While there might be a 26MP EOS R model on Canon’s agenda, so far nothing ever leaked about such a camera nor have there been any reliable hints in this direction. For the time being, this is a wishmor (wishful rumor),

Stay tuned, February 14 is the day Canon will most likely announce their next full frame mirrorless camera.

A Third Canon EOS R Model Coming In 2019? [CW 1]

Shortly before the expected announcement of a new Canon EOS R model, a new rumors emerges from the web.

Latest has it that Canon might announce a third Canon EOS R model in 2019. So far we are reasonably sure only about one model, which we expect to be announced on February 14. It will most likely be named EOS RP.

However, Canon Rumors seems to rather confident that there might be a third Canon EOS R model on Canon’s 2019 agenda:

  • The camera is in “final” development, but production has not started.
  • Dual card slots are present in the body, one being SD, the other being something else.
  • The touch bar is gone, replaced by a familiar joystick.

This is the first time we here about a third EOS R model. It’s possible, but we think it’s highly unlikely. It also puzzles us that the only specifications so far are related to two of the strongest criticism the EOS R had to face: no dual card slot and the touch bar.
