The Canon EOS M50 Mark II Might Get Announced In 2020

Canon eos m50 mark ii

Here is some murmurings about the replacement for the highly popular EOS M50, the Canon EOS M50 Mark II.

The Canon EOS M50 Mark II could be announced before Christmas 2020. The weird thing: according to the source the EOS M50 replacement might first ship in Japan, and only in 2021 in the rest of the world.

The Canon EOS M50 is the company’s top selling mirrorless camera and it is to expect that Canon will follow up with a worthy replacement. The EOS M50 Mark II won’t be Canon’s APS-C mirrorless flagship but I think it’s safe to assume that Canon will announce a feature-rich successor, and it will be another best seller.

Stay tuned.

What To Expect Next From Canon?

canon eos r5 firmware

Time to sum up the speculations about what we might see next from Canon.

What’s happening on the RF lenses front? These lenses are likely to be announced next from Canon:

  • RF 50mm f/1.8 IS STM
  • RF 70-200mm f/4L IS USM
  • RF 18-45mm IS STM
  • RF 100-400mm IS USM
  • RF 24mm f/2.8 IS STM Macro

Note that only the first two lenses (50mm and 70-200mm) are expected to be released this year. The remaining three lenses are most likely a 2021 announcement. Moreover, there might be more L-tier lenses on Canon’s release radar.

Canon might also release one more adapter for the RF mount. No reliable intel here so far.

Will there be more EOS R cameras to get released in 2020? We think that’s unlikely yet not impossible. Don’t put your stakes to high, though.

Will Canon release a new EOS M camera? A new flagship EOS M camera might indeed be announced in 2020. Here too we don’t yet have any reliable information.

And EF-M lenses? Canon might announce one or two new EF-M lenses for the EOS M system.

Will there be a Canon EOS 5D Mark V? Well, that’s a tough question and honestly we have no clue so far. Is there space for a 5D Mark V after the EOS R5? You tell me.

Stay tuned.
