Canon R5C Mark II Early specifications surfaced over the web, there is a high probability these specs are of one of the EARLY PROTOTYPE of the upcoming camera, in genral a camera maker tests several prototypes of a high-end camera before the finalize the production line version. Take a look at the set of specs, of the upcoming Canon R5C Mark II camera
Canon R5C Mark II Rumored Specification
- Dual System Design with Active Cooling:
The Canon R5C Mark II will continue the “dual system” setup as we have seen in the original Canon R5C, where the camera can function as both a high-performance stills camera (like the R5) and a cinema camera (for video production). The mention of a “square, thickened active cooling body” indicates that the upcoming R5C II will have an enhanced thermal management system, likely allowing uninterrupted recording in every ALL available resolution of the camera. - Introduction of SDI Interface: Now, that’s the most important part of the rumored specs we have read so far, the Canon R5C Mark II upcoming camera will use or have an SDI port. Again as per the source, the camera maker may swipe the HDMI in favour of SDI, or they may keep both as an option to the user. SDI is typically more reliable and provides better signal quality over longer distances, which is a common requirement in professional video setups.
- The 4K RAW Video Changes: No lower quality 4K SRAW (which was a lower-resolution form of RAW), but instead will feature a higher-resolution format: 4096×4320 pixels. This is a sub-pixel merging technique, which effectively produces a more detailed “native” 4K output by using higher-resolution data and downsampling it intelligently. This likely improves image quality in terms of sharpness and color accuracy.
- The 4K/24-60p YUV Video: Introduction of Custom Sensor READOUT speed pattern as per user requirement
The R5C II offers a YUV video format in 4K resolution, with two modes:- High-Quality Mode (8192×4320 Sampling): Here, the camera samples from an 8K resolution (8192×4320) to produce a very detailed 4K output.
- High-Speed Mode (4096×4320 Sampling): This mode uses 4K footage but samples it horizontally rather than vertically. This adjustment could be aimed at optimizing performance while maintaining good color depth and resolution in YUV422 format (commonly used in professional video work).
Overall, if we look at the rumored set of core specifications, the Canon R5 Mark II camera features enhanced core specifications compared to the original Canon R5C, especially in terms of resolution and video output options.
