Canon Might Release A Speedbooster And New Adapters For RF Mount

View Post

Canon might soon announce new adapters for the RF mount, i.e. the mount of the company’s EOS R full frame mirrorless camera system. And a Speedbooster might also get announced.

Rumor has it that Canon might release some interesting adapters for the RF mount, all of them likely within 2020.

  • PL to RF with Cooke/i
  • EF-Cinema Lock to RF
  • Speedbooster

That Canon was working on their own speed booster was in the air. A pertinent patent was spotted time ago. For those who want to learn what a Speedbooster is, have a look here.

A Canon announcement in August or September 2020 is already rumored. The adapters might get announced along with new Canon EOS M cameras and a new EOS R camera.

Stay tuned, and don’t forget to snap pics.

Another Mention Of IBIS Coming To The Canon EOS M Lineup

A new rumor surfaced confirming a precedent rumor: In Body Image Stabilisation (IBIS) might come to the Canon EOS M lineup.

IBIS on an upcoming EOS M camera was rumored previously but it’s good to hear it again, even if it is becoming a bit redundant. IBIS is rumored to come to the PowerShot lineup too.

We think it is very likely that Canon will feature IBIS on future EOS M cameras. The upcoming EOS M50 Mark II and EOS M5 Mark II are for sure good candidates for IBIS on the EOS M lineup. Both cameras might get announced in Fall 2020.

All Canon rumors are listed here.

Stay tuned.

Another Canon EOS R Camera Coming 2020, Cinema or APS-C?

A new rumor coming from a pretty reliable source suggests Canon is set to release another EOS R camera within 2020.

We think this could be either a Cinema camera with RF mount or an EOS R system camera with APS-C sensor. Both are rumored since a while. However, it seems we will know soon: the rumor suggests Canon might announce this camera at the end of August or beginning of September 2020. Just in time for IBC 2020.

What do you think, APS-C or Cinema?

Canon EOS 5D Mark IV Last Of Its Kind, No EOS 5D Mark V?

A few days ago we got a rumor suggesting the Canon EOS 90D and EOS 7D Mark II will not get a replacement. It seems we might see no Canon EOS 5D Mark V either.

A new and rather confident rumor suggests Canon will not release a 5D Mark V to replace the 5D Mark IV. The source of the rumor says Canon already stopped the development of the 5D Mark V some time ago. The source also claims that the EOS 5D lineup will not live on as a mirrorless version. Wasn’t the EOS R5 intended as a mirrorless EOS 5D series equivalent?

While we are somewhat inclined to believe Canon will not replace the EOS 90D and 7D II, we have a harder time with the EOS 5D Mark IV. This is a highly popular camera among professional photographers, and they are notoriously less fond of mirrorless technology than your average camera user. The EOS 5D Mark IV was announced almost 4 years ago and would be ready for a replacement. Less than a year ago there was a rumor suggesting the 5D V was on “Canon’s roadmap”.

So, no Canon EOS 5D Mark V?

Canon EOS 90D and EOS 7D Mark II Last Of Their Kind?

Is the Canon EOS 90D the last iteration of the highly popular EOS xxD lineup? We got a tip pointing in that direction.

Canon will not replace the EOS 90D with a new model, we have been told. Instead, Canon will release a new APS-C mirrorless camera as replacement. The source didn’t tell if this new camera will be an EOS M or an EOS R model.

Not the first time a rumor suggests the end of the long running EOS xxD lineup. In the past we had a rumor suggesting there would be no EOS 90D and a MILC instead. It didn’t happen.

And the Canon EOS 7D series? Rumors suggests Canon might see a mirrorless future here too. This could get interesting since the EOS 7D lineup was always intended for the pros who wanted or needed an APS-C body (for instance to get more reach with their telephoto lenses). Canon has to release a truly amazing APS-C mirrorless camera to replace the EOS 7D Mark II (and the EOS 90D too, for that matter).

A recent rumor suggests an EOS R camera with APS-C sensor might be on Canon’s radar. Rumors that Canon might release an APS-C camera in the EOS R lineup are surfacing since a while. 2021 might be the year for such a camera.

I’m particularly fond of the Canon EOS xxD lineup. The EOS 40D was my first “serious” DSLR. A great camera, I still have it. Then came the EOS 70D and later the EOS 80D, the latter being my favorite all-round DSLR.

Btw, how would the next iteration of the xxD lineup be named, Canon EOS 95D? EOS 100D is already taken (the Rebel SL1 is named EOS 100D in Europe).

Stay tuned.

The Canon EOS M50 Mark II Might Get Announced In 2020

Here is some murmurings about the replacement for the highly popular EOS M50, the Canon EOS M50 Mark II.

The Canon EOS M50 Mark II could be announced before Christmas 2020. The weird thing: according to the source the EOS M50 replacement might first ship in Japan, and only in 2021 in the rest of the world.

The Canon EOS M50 is the company’s top selling mirrorless camera and it is to expect that Canon will follow up with a worthy replacement. The EOS M50 Mark II won’t be Canon’s APS-C mirrorless flagship but I think it’s safe to assume that Canon will announce a feature-rich successor, and it will be another best seller.

Stay tuned.
