A Cinema camera with RF mount might be on the horizon, according to latest reports.

A new rumor suggests Canon is already actively working on a new product line, a Cinema camera with RF mount. It seems Canon could place this RF mount Cinema camera on the same spot as the Canon Cinema EOS C100 Mark II. The form factor and the design might resemble the XC camcorder lineup,

Is Canon testing a new, possible market by releasing a RF mount camcorder, just to see how the demand will be? Possible. Moreover, it’s clear that the RF mount is set to shape Canon’s future. A RF Cinema lineup will come to stay, sooner or later.

We expect Canon to announce a new Cinema camera on April 20, 2020, during a livestreamed conference, most likely the Canon Cinema EOS C300 Mark III. The EOS R5 will not be announced on April 20, 2020, we expect the EOS R5 announcement before Summer 2020.

Canon released a press release where the company states they will livestream their next press conference, instead of holding it as usual. Another consequence of the global virus outbreak.

Although some people is suggesting the EOS R5 could be announced at this date, it’s very unlikely. In the press release Canon mentions “broadcast and cinema products” to tackle “the current and growing needs of the respective industries such as 4K UHD and HDR, as well as evolving technologies“. So, it’s likely a new Canon Cinema camera is coming, most probably the EOS C300 Mark III.

Two New Canon Cinema EOS Cameras Coming In 2020

Canon Cinema Rf Mount
View Post

Canon announced only one Cinema camera in 2019, the Canon EOS C500 Mark II. Next year we might see two new Canon Cinema cameras.

One of these new Canon cameras will be the Canon EOS C300 Mark III (Super 35mm and 4K video), and it will have the same modular design as the EOS C500 Mark II.

The other one might be the replacement for the Canon EOS C100 Mark II. For this one it’s also suggested it may have the Canon RF mount (introduced with the EOS R system).

Finally, it seems 2020 will not be the year Canon is going to introduce 8K video to its Cinema line-up. We may see some sort of development announcement, though.

Stay tuned.
