One of the upcoming new lenses for the Canon EOS R system might get announced in May, according to Nokishita.
We expect another announcement soon, it might be for the Powershot G7 X Mark III or for a new EOS M camera.

BF 13.32 29.60 57.62
More Canon patent applications are listed here. Some particularly interesting patent applications we think might get into production are these:
Canon patent application 2019-0113711 (USA) describes the optical formula for an RF 50mm f/1.8 and RF 28mm f/1.8 lens, both for the Canon EOS R full frame mirrorless system.
Focal length 48.50
F-number 1.85
Half angle of view (degrees) 24.04
Image height 21.64
Total lens length 95.00
BF 15.80
Focal length 28.80
F-number 1.85
Half angle of view (degrees) 36.91
Image height 21.64
Total lens length 80.30
BF 7.00
It’s likely Canon will launch these non-L lenses sooner than later. Both are popular focal lengths on full frame, and it’s also likely Canon is set to offer some less expensive (aka budget) lenses for the EOS R system.
More Canon patent applications are listed here. Some particularly interesting patent applications we think might get into production in the next few years are these:
The folks over at Mirrorless Comparison posted a pretty exhaustive comparison between the Canon EOS R and the Canon EOS RP. As far as I know this is the first serious EOS R vs EOS RP comparison review.
Most of you likely know that the image sensors of the EOS R and EOS RP are derived form the image sensors found in the EOS 5D Mark IV and EOS 6D Mark II, respectively. This reflects in the sensor performance, and is clearly visible in the image below where 4 stops of exposure recovery have been applied.
The EOS RP holds up better to the EOS R when it comes to high ISO performance.
If you’re interested in 4K video have a look at the video below to learn more about how both cameras perform.
Mirrorless Comparison sums up:
Mirrorless Comparison’s review examines every feature in both cameras and compares them. If you are on the fence and don’t know which camera is best for you, be sure to have a look at the review.
