Canon announces development of the EOS R5 full-frame mirrorless camera

[brad-man]

Tilty-flippy AND something resembling a small 5D thumb wheel

The body is still small, but this seems way better. Touch bar RIP?

Joy stick >>>touch bar. I was really hoping they'd bring back the print button...

Where is the link to the official announcement?

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

I think $3500

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.

That's the same time as CP+. No coincidence. We will know a LOT that weekend then

Digital technology always gets better and cheaper. Moore’s Law applies to imaging.

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...

I can accept a smaller wheel... depending if an underwater camera housing can still move it okay

lack of mechanical mode dial and separate video switch are the only negatives so far

1DxIII, R5 and seven lenses. Canon, you are forcing me to delay retirement.

Checks most of the boxes for me. I’m not optimistic that I’ll be owning one of these in 2020 but I guess it could happen. The marketing speak on 8k is pretty fuzzy so I don’t think that’s settled yet. I don’t particularly want/need 8k so its fine with me if they sample down. Can’t wait to see some demos.

Release in June?

think that would be a very best case scenario if we're lucky... somehow feel l iek it'll take some time....
the 1dx miii annoucnement was october 2019. but i feel like this one will take mor time...

Bummer it lacks the same AF on bottom as the 1dx.

The announcement yes (see CR Guy's first post on this thread), but the scrolling animated website = no.

Thanks for the link. That grip looks a little snug with a wide barreled lens.
