These Might Be The Specifications Of One Of Canon’s Next Cinema Cameras (EOS C5?)

canon rumors canon news eos r7 mark ii canon eos rv

We got a rumor from an unknown source. We report it as it is out of duty. Please take it with a grain of salt. Is a Canon EOS C5 coming?

We got tipped about a new, upcoming mirrorless Canon Cinema camera. A Cinema camera that seems to be closely related to the EOS R5/EOS R5 C. This is what we got:

  • The camera is a combination of the EOS R5 C and EOS C300 III, similar in appearance to the EOS R5 C, but more square, with the electric ND filter of the EOS C300 III, the professional interface of the EOS C70, and an extended battery compartment.
  • Its XF-AVC recording format is the same as the EOS C70, but it uses a modified version of the EOS R5 C’s CMOS sensor with a total of 22.5 megapixels.
  • With a sampling resolution of 8192×2160, it is capable of perfect oversampling to 4K 120fps, making it Canon’s current 4K 120fps product with the best image quality.
  • When the frame rate is reduced to 72fps or less, DGO mode is turned on to provide higher dynamic range.
  • Unlike the current EOS C70, it does not offer RAW recording for now.
  • Full pixel QPAF, and RAW internal recording in subsequent firmware.
  • In terms of photography, it no longer offers a mechanical shutter and is replaced by in-body stabilization.

The source suggested the moniker “Canon EOS C5“. Again, don’t forget the grain of salt. Please let me know what you think about this rumor. Anything to take seriously?

Canon EOS-1D X Mark III Company’s Last Flagship DSLR, Exec Says

canon eos-1d x mark iii sensor

Yesterday a news about Canon broke over the Internet. Not only the source of the news wasn’t cited by the usual suspects, but it was also reported in a misleading way.

asobinet.com broke the news reporting an interview with a Canon exec, Canon’s Chairman and CEO Fujio Mitarai. In the interview. Mr Fujio Mitarai states that the Canon EOS-1D X Mark III will be Canon’s last flagship DSLR. The future belongs to mirrorless:

The market needs are acceleratingly shifting to mirrorless cameras. In line with this, we are steadily shifting people

However, that does not mean Canon will no longer produce DSLRs, as some sites want you to believe. From the interview:

Demand for beginner and intermediate SLR cameras is strong overseas, so we plan to continue development and production for the time being.

It doesn’t really come to a surprise that Canon will no longer produce a flagship DSLR, given all the efforts they put into mirrorless. The next Canon flagship camera will be the Canon EOS R1.

Canon EOS R5c To Get Announced In January 2022?

canon rumors canon news eos r7 mark ii canon eos rv

It seems we will soon see a new Canon EOS R model. The Canon EOS R5c (all rumors) is said to get announced very soon.

Rumored Canon EOS R5c specifications:

  • 45mp full-frame sensor (same as EOS R5)
  • DIGIC X
  • IBIS
  • Canon Log 3
  • Canon Log 2 is still being discussed
  • No Internal NDs
  • Unlimited 8K30P recording in Cinema RAW Light. XF-AVC and MP4
  • Timecode in/out
  • The same multipurpose hot shoe as the EOS R3. Which will work with accessories such as the Tascam XLR module.
  • Active cooling
  • 3/8″ or 1/4″ mounting point on the EVF for a top handle that won’t interfere with the hot shoe.
  • Full-size HDMI Port
  • The LCD has been moved further back to accommodate the cooling fan. So this likely means that it won’t recess into the body like the Canon EOS R5.

Canon Rumors reports with high confidentiality that the Canon EOS R5c will get announced in mid January 2022. The announcement might come between January 11, 2022, and January 18, 2022. Shipping might start around eight weeks agter the announcement. No information about the price so far. However, if the rumor is reliable we will soon know more from the usual Japanese sites.

Stay tuned.
