View Post

Here is another wave in the recent flood of Canon rumors. Canon might be set to announced an EOS R model that sits between the EOS R7 and EOS R10.

Quoting the source (emphasis mine):

[…] latest bit of information […] is a new camera body coming that will fit between the Canon EOS R7 and Canon EOS R10 in the lineup from a price standpoint. We don’t think that this is going to be a similar product placement as we had seen with DSLRs and the EOS 77D. We think that the EOS R8/EOS R9 (guessing on the name) will have a different form factor and could possibly see the omission of a built-in viewfinder, but those are just guesses at this point.

“EOS R8” is very unlikely in our opinion. Time will tell. All Canon rumors are listed here.

Cinema EOS C200
View Post

New week, new rumor. Canon might announce two new EOS Cinema cameras in 2023, the Canon Cinema EOS C200 Mark II and Canon Cinema EOS C700 Mark II.

According to the source, the Canon Cinema EOS C200 Mark II might come ahead of NAB 2023, and a new C700 series camera before IBC 2023 in September. These are the rumored specifications:

Canon Cinema EOS C200 Mark II

  • Same Super 35 4K DGO sensor as the C70 / C300 Mark III
  • RF mount
  • 4K up to 120 frames
  • Cinema RAW Light, XF-AVC and MP4 recording options
  • 2x SD UHS-II V90 media slots
  • A modular box design, somewhat similar of the Panasonic BS1H camera
  • HDMI Type A and 12G-SDI outputs
  • The multi-function hot shoe is included for an external XLR module

Canon Cinema EOS C700 Mark II

  • User swappable sensors with two offerings at launch: a Super 35 5K Global Shutter sensor and a Full Frame 8K DGO Rolling Shutter sensor
  • Both sensor blocks are equipped with a direct RF mount, which can be topped by an EF or LPL mount without the need to remove the RF mount (the whole mount can be assembled on top of the RF mount and mounted to the camera, like Sony did with the VENICE 2)
  • Introduction of two new gamma curves: Canon Log 4, designed for HDR productions; and Wide DR Cine, designed for cinematic colors straight out of camera
  • 2x CFExpress Type B cards and 1x SD card media slots
  • This will be the most CODEC heavy from Canon: XF-AVC, ProRes and Cinema RAW Light can be recorded internally; BRAW and ProRes RAW externally with the Blackmagic VideoAssist and Atomos Ninja+; Cinema RAW with the Codex CDX-36150; and a new module/recorder developed in partnership with RED Digital Cinema to record REDCODE to a proprietary media
  • 4x SDI outputs for different monitoring workflows
  • Camera design is somewhat closer to the C300 Mark III/C500 Mark II design, although a little bit bigger to acomodate the extra I/O terminals
  • This camera prototype is already out on the field being tested

Canon RF-S 22mm f/2 STM Coming Alongside The Canon EOS R50?

Canon EF-M 32mm f/1.4 STM EF-M 22mm canon lenses
View Post

Being owned by a commercial entity appears to do well to a well known source of Canon rumors. Here is another one in a row of recent rumors.

Rumor has it that the Canon might announced a new lens along with the rumored Canon EOS R50, the Canon RF-S 22mm f/2 STM.

The optical design of the Canon RF-S 22mm f/2 STM is said to be almost the same as the Canon EF-M 22mm f/2 STM. Indeed, this might be a port from the EF-M mount to the RF mount. No specifications leaked so far but if the optical design is similar to the EF-M 22mm, then these might (more or less) apply:

  • Moderate Wide-Angle Lens
  • Bright f/2 Lens Aperture
  • Exceptional Low-Light Performance
  • One Aspheric Lens Element
  • Built-In Stepping Motor
  • Smooth & Continuous AF
  • Seven Blade Circular Aperture
  • Short Minimum Focusing Distance of 5.9″

Stay tuned for more.

The rumor mill is going wild. New owner, new momentum. Latest has it that Canon might announce a new EOS R camera in Q1 2023. The Canon EOS R50.

Please be aware that the moniker “R50” comes from the community, it’s not an official Canon naming. I can not say how this rumor fits in withe the previous rumor from the same source, i.e. that a Canon EOS R100 and EOS R1000 are on their way. The source suggests that the EOS R100 might indeed be the here discusses EOS R50.

No specifications so far. The Canon EOS R50 might get announced before the CP+ show in Japan, which starts on February 2, 2023.

Stay tuned.

A new rumor surfaced from the interweb of connected rumor mills. Canon might have two more APS-C cameras in the EOS R lineup, the already rumored Canon EOS R100 and the EOS R1000.

We broke the news time ago with the Canon EOS R100, and we expect Canon to announce it most likely in 2023. But it seems there is one more, entry-level EOS R camera with APS-C sensor on its way, already dubbed Canon EOS R1000 by those who claim to know. No specifications are available so far and as always: take it with a grain of salt.

The Canon EOS R100 might have these specifications:

  • 24.2mp APS-C Sensor
  • DIGIC X
  • 12fps (Mechanical)
  • 4K30p

A new Canon EOS R1 rumor surfaced from the interweb of rumor mills.

The rumor states that the Canon EOS R1 might get announced not earlier than 2024. Allegedly, the intel came from a Canon Explorer of Light. The rumor also suggests the Canon EOS R1 might have an 85MP imaging sensor, 24fps (mechanical raw burst), and will have improved dynamic range. Sounds good,doesn’t it?

We too got indeed a suggestion that the Canon EOS R1 might not get announced before 2024. The Summer Games 2024 come to mind as a possible schedule for the announcement.

The Canon EOS R1 is sort of long running rumor. Everyone knows that it will eventually be announced, so everyone speculates about it, sometime wilder sometimes less wild.

All Canon EOS R1 rumors are listed here.

Stay tuned.
