More possible Canon PowerShot announcements ahead of Photokina 2018 [CW2]

canon rumors canon full frame mirrorless

We got some more bits about Canon’s agenda for Photokina 2018, along with the rumor about the Canon EOS M5 Mark II.

Canon might announce also two PowerShot cameras around September 2018.

  • A premium, travel oriented PowerShot SX740, featuring a 40x zoom, raw file format and GPS
  • The PowerShot G7X III, with a new 1″ sensor manufactured by Canon, Dual Pixel AF, 4K, and again GPS

We feel more confident about the Canon EOS M5 Mark II rumor than on this. Time will tell.

Stay tuned.

Possible Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark III specifications surface

Powershot G7 X Mark Ii

A list off supposed specifications for the upcoming Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark III surfaced over the web.

The Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark III may have the following specifications:

  • 24.1mp 1″ CMOS sensor
  • 10fps
  • DIGIC 8
  • 24-100mm f/1.8-f/2.8 Lens (4.2x Optical Zoom)
  • 3″ Articulating Touchscreen
  • 4K Video at 30fps
  • 1080p Video at 60fps
  • Built in Wi-Fi, NFC & GPS
  • Announcement: 2018
  • No mention about DPAF for 4K video.

Looks a bit like wish-list to me. Also it’s somewhat hard to think that Canon will feature 4K on a PowerShot, given how reluctant they were to put it on consumer models. All in all it looks a bit to feature rich for a PowerShot camera.

An announcement towards Q4 2018 may be realistic. There is Photokina in September and Canon won’t miss this stage if they have something important or just new to display.

Stay tuned.
