Canon announces development of the EOS R5 full-frame mirrorless camera
- Thread starter Canon Rumors
- Start date
Is it me or does that back AF button look like the older flavor? Not like the new one on the DX3 with touch and drag AF point selection? That would really suck if it doesn't have that bad-ass feature.

They also announced the RF24-105 f4-7.1 IS STM
The video makes it clear that you can take pictures of little things like coffee beans. Is that a thing? I can’t read the menus but could they have a limitable macro close focus distance. That’s my complaint about the RF 35.
that’s a slick video. Makes me want it, even though I have the f/4 24-105.

Earlier review of the french photo implied it was highly similar to the R in general size. It's not 5D-wide or tall or anything.

One of the press releases said April 2020, but it may be referring to the Cloud service. The sentence structure left it open for interpretation. I kinda think Canon would LOVE to have this in hands of the Olympics same as the DX3 though

They’d be crazy not to offer a mechanically lengthened version of each TC for use with EF big whites.

The Sony is nice, but I'm sure the Canon will have better optics and build. I was just hoping they'd compete directly and make a 200-600mm. Personally I prefer the internal zoom but that's a controversial topic.

Looks like scroll wheel from 5D. Like the layout... Can we tell if the joystick is old one or fancy 1DXiii?

Think about serial TV -- the best reveals don't give you everything. They want us on the hook (for what might be) through whatever Sony announces next.

That 360 rotation on the Japanese site looks pretty beefy for a MILC. Maybe bigger than the R. Which would be really really nice. This camera should come out and fit perfectly in the hands of current 5D pros. That's the #1 thing 'I'd want if Im Canon

I"m betting that's a not 5D-sized scroll wheel, but people will be posting overlays on 5D4 and EOS R in 3, 2, 1...

My conservative guess was $3299 and the Facebook groups told me "In your dreams dude."
We shall see.

From Canon USA Press Release:
Looks like the wait won't be long for a lot of details. At least we should know the type of cards and probably confirm the resolution. It will be interesting to see how fast and accurate the autofocus is. I hope it doesn't hunt and lose focus like the R. Otherwise that 500mm zoom won't be of much use to birders.

Find better Facebook groups. If they think this camera will be $5000, then they have been smoking Tool's clown show crack pipe again

The 100-200 range is far more useful to me than the 500-600.
Although a 2x TC makes the RF70-200 a 140-400 f5.6 and thus mostly redundant, the 100-500 might be tempting.
