Canon EOS RV Image Leaks Out: The Small Mirrorless We Have Been Wanting

[Richard CN]

It seems that someone snagged a photo of a future Canon camera, with the identifier of EOS RV. It's a compact camera looking to have a similar frame as the PowerShot V1.

me too!

I hope they do a decent job with the specifications - I'd love to see the 32MP sensor in there, but I doubt it because it's video orientated.

So I suspect we'll just see the 24MP sensor - again.

An R10 with CLOG 3 and a cooling fan and no EVF would be perfect

An accessory EVF would be fine!

Strangely the 32MP is still the fastest Canon has in crop format, reusing the 24MP would, again, mean no usable electronic shutter.
The leaf shutter in the V1 makes up for that, but the RV will most likely have a normal shutter.

Anyway, my R8 still has no real competition

Z30 mix with ZV-E10 and slap on RF mount...

Btw the lens is annoyingly ugly, if it\'s silver, make it whole silver...

I hope this unergonomic brick frame inspired by Sony isn't gonna be Canon's new signature design.

May be this one?

Specifications for Unnamed EOS R APS-C Camera Body

We have reported in the past that the APS-C lineup would get addressed in 2025, and that we would see some new segments in the lineup. We feel that Canon's c

It does mentioned “New Body Design Philosophy”.

Damn, i hate the look of the current RF-S lenses with the small diameter and big lens mount. This new lens looks much better already.
Its also ugly in this silver-black combination. Just make it all silver or all black.

 

[Canon Rumors]

This must have been behind the curtain at CP+, weird to see the security attachment.

I hope to have it specced out today, but it is the weekend.

My guess? 32mp R7 sensor (V1 probably is too, just smaller). Paying 7 to 1!

No EVF -> no purchase.
But the bezel on the back looks like an eyepiece.

The absence of an EVF is the biggest drawback on C70, C80, C400.
And it killed my nerve on EOS M and M3.

 

[docsmith]

So a whole new lineup of "RV"power zoom lenses? Interesting. The picture looks a bit thick. But something to replace my M6II is something I would keep my eye on. But given the build, it is reminding me much more of the smaller cinema bodies. I am wondering how far skewed to that direction it will be (spoken as a primary stills photographer).

The Canon M6m2 was a very popular camera. Mine still traveled with me until I purchased the Panasonic S9 to replace it. Now I can pair the S9 with this camera or alternate.

Exaxtly what I've been waiting for. Do not want or need an EVF built into the camera. If Canon offers an attachment EVF, that would be ok. I never use mine.

 

[Maximilian]

I’m looking forward to all these smaller bodies!

Same here. But I suppose this one won't be my "small body".

No EVF -> no purchase.

For such a cam I want an attachable one. Without that, I'm out.

Also, the elaborated ergonomics are not mine.
I can understand the purpose of that power zoom lever on the shutter button.
And I hope that those working with it will like it.
But I prefer the smooth shutter button that we have with most EOS cameras.
That was one reason why I didn't like the EOS M models and other brands either.
But that's just me.

 

[jam05]

Alas Canon has finally replaced the M6mk2. The wait is nearly over. And most likely will have Clog3. A fan would be perfect.

I'm not sure how the ergonomics would "work" we haven't seen enough of it, but the shutter button look pretty square on the body too.

looks very much like a powershot.

maybe it's a PowerShot EOS RV

stranger things have happened in Canon-Land.

 

[blackcoffee17]

Doesn\'t look much bigger than the M6. The lens mount is 65mm in diameter and above it is around 2-3mm. The M6 II is 70mm tall.
