More Canon cameras to be announced soon (EOS 3000D and EOS 4000D)

Canon Rumors

The EOS M50 and the EOS 2000D aren’t the only new and upcoming Canon DSLRs. Two more DSLRs have been registered at the Eurasian Economic Commission.

Canon will soon announced the EOS 3000D (registration document) and the EOS 4000D (registration document). Both DSLRs will be available as body only option, and as kit with EF-S 18-55mm IS II and EF-S 18-55mm DC III lenses.

When will all this new gear be announced? We are pretty sure January (CES 2018) or February (CP+ 2018) 2018 are the months when Canon will announce the EOS M50, EOS 2000D, EOS 3000D, EOS 4000D to the general public.

Btw, what is Canon doing with all these 4-digit, entry-level DSLRs? Isn’t it a bit too much to offer so many entry-level DSLRs?

The Canon EOS M50 may be a midrange MILC, comes in 2 colors & 2 kits (and there is also an EOS 2000D/Rebel T7 coming)

Registrations of unreleased Canon gear showed up at the Eurasian Economic Commission. You can see the document above.

We already know that Canon will announce a new MILC named EOS M50. From the document above we learn the EOS M50 will come in two colors (black and white), and in two kits, respectively with the 15-45mm IS STM and the 18-150 IS STM lenses. The EOS M50 registration document can be seen here

Where will the EOS M50 be positioned in Canon’s mirrorless line-up? Given the two digits in the name, the the EOS M50 will most likely be positioned between the EOS M100 and the EOS M5/M6. A midrange MILC from Canon, so to say.

Another Canon camera was registered at the Eurasian Economic Commission, the EOS 2000D. Given that the EOS 2000D will replace the EOS 1300D (Rebel T6 in USA) it’s no surprise it comes as a kit with the  EF-S 18-55mm IS II lens. The EOS 2000D will most likely be named Rebel T7 in the States. The EOS 2000D registration document is here.

The Canon EOS M50 is the company’s next mirrorless camera

Canon Rumors

 

Nokishita spotted new, unreleased Canon gear. And it gets pretty interesting.

It appears Canon has registered the Bluetooth module of a new camera at a certification authority. The new camera is named EOS M50 (Kiss M in Japan), and it definitely appears be a mirrorless interchangeable lens camera.

It’s suggested the EOS M50 might be similar to the EOS M5 but with less features. I’m a bit puzzled by the moniker “Kiss M” (for the Japanese market), which seems to suggest a more DSLR-like design. Well, this is assuming “Kiss M” and “EOS M50” refer to the same piece of gear (I think they do).

When gear is spotted at certification authorities it is usually a matter of weeks before this gear gets announced. However, I do not expect the EOS M50 to be announced in 2017. This will most likely be a 2018 announcement.

What do you think is the EOS M50? Sound off in the comment section.
