View Post

Canon released another Canon EOS R5 firmware update, verision 1.2.0.

Canon EOS R5 firmware 1.2.0 incorporates the following fixes and features:

1. When using high-speed or low-speed continuous shooting modes, in Drive Mode with [High Speed Display: OFF], the visibility of the subject within the frame has been improved when shooting moving objects (during continuous shooting black frames will be inserted between frames in the viewfinder and live view. This will improve the visibility of moving subjects in live view and in the viewfinder)

3. Enables 2nd curtain shooting sync during radio transmission wireless flash shooting when the Speedlite EL-1 flash is attached to the camera.
4. Enables manual flash output (excluding high-speed sync and optical transmission wireless flash shooting) to be selected and set up to 1/8192 from the camera menu screen when the Speedlite EL-1 flash is attached to the camera.
5. Improves compatibility of HEIF images recorded in the camera with MIAF (Multi-Image Application Format) standards.
6. Adds support for AF and release during zoom operations for some RF and EF lenses.

A Sum Up Of What To Expect From Canon For The EOS R Line-up In 2021

Canon Eos Line-up Eos R7 Eos R10
View Post

More RF mount cameras are coming, so let’s sum up what we can expect Canon to bring to the EOS R line-up.

Please note that you won’t find new rumors in the list below. It is what most likely Canon will announce for the EOS R lineup in 2021:

  • Canon EOS RP replacement. Another entry level camera to be announced, said to be less expensive than the EOS RP. At least one Canon exec thinks that’s possible.
  • A camera to sit between the EOS RP replacement and the EOS R6. An EOS R Mark II seems to be unlikely.
  • An EOS R camera with APS-C imaging sensor. While we still have some perplexities about this rumor, it seems now to be assessed. Still, not sure if it makes any sense given the EOS M series.
  • A high resolution EOS R camera, maybe a high res EOS R5 version. No doubts here. This one is coming and it seems to already undergo field testing. It might have a sensor resolution of around 80MP.
  • And finally, we also expect Canon to release a flagship tier EOS R body, something that’s equivalent to the EOS-1D X Mark III.
  • To conclude, Cinema cameras with RF mount might also be on Canon’s 2021 release radat. A Cinema EOS C50 and EOS C90 might get announced.

No doubt that Canon is endorsing their EOS R system. Stay tuned.
