Canon Upcoming Cameras 2023

By admin, on November 8th, 2022

Take a look at the list of Canon Cameras and lenses expected to arrive in the year 2023. Keep in mind these list are coming out from rumor mills

1. Canon EOS R1

Canon EOS R1 isn’t a rumor actually, Canon has confirmed several times in interviews they are working on a flagship mirrorless camera. Earlier we expected that camera to arrive at the end of 2022, but its looks like the announcement are being delayed this time.

This is the set of most authentic information(s) we have related to the Canon EOS R1

45+ megapixels, 8K video recording at various framerates

and one more rumored specs

Met a fellow photographer today who “was” a Canon Explorer” and he just got back from Japan.

His exact words were, “I spoke to a friend of mine at Canon while I was in Japan and the R1 is shooting for 85MP at 24fps in RAW with over 15 stops of dynamic range,”.

Now we wait and see….. If he’s right or should I say his friend is right… That is exactly double the resolution of the 1DXMKIII and 40% more than the NIkon Z9.

As usual, a camera maker tests several prototypes before the final announcement of any flagship camera. These two sets of specs are the knowledge to us, let’s wait for further confirmation about the same

3. Canon R50

UPDATE: Canon R50 is now announced by Canon – See All Related posts here

The Canon R50 is said to be the true sensor of the Canon M50 Mark II and 200D Mark II cameras. As per the initial set of specifications we have the Canon R50 is actually a budget Canon R10 camera with a compact body similar to Sony ZV-E10 or Nikon Z30.

Canon EOS R100 Rumored specification

24.2MP APS-C CMOS Sensor (Same as Canon R10) (Confirmed)
4k 24, 30fps (Limited to 8 bit) (Confirmed)
No HDRPQ mode like Canon R10
14 FPS burst mode (un-Confirmed)
3.0″ 1.04m-Dot Vari-Angle Touchscreen (Confirmed)
Coming in Q1-Q2 2023

The initial set of rumors suggests Canon R10 will share the same 24MP Sensor as the Canon R50 Camera. But, we will have limitations in Video frame rates (No 4k 60fps) and limited burst Mode.

The camera is expected to arrive sometime in Q1 or Q2 of 2023.

4. Canon R7C

Canon R7C or Canon C7 ? – a compact cinema mirrorless camera with RF Mount and APS-C CMOS Sensor ? is a cheaper alternative to the Canon C70 and an FX30 perfect competitor ?, rumors start drooling out more and more after the announcement of the Sony FX30 camera.

So, we do have a high possibility, that we may have a Canon compact cinema camera like an FX30 camera, with a 32.5MP Dual gain Sensor including BNC Timecode and Mini-XLR Audio Inputs.

We do expect its announcement Q3/Q4 of 2023. Stay tuned we will publish more updates soon as it become available to us.

5. Canon EOS R Mark II or Canon R8

UPDATE Canon R8 Announced by Canon – See all Updates Related to Canon R8 Here

The Canon EOS R Mark II or Canon R8 ? the name of the camera isn’t confirmed yet, but both Canon R8 and R9 are reserved for Canon upcoming cameras and we do expect the EOS R Mark II will have an R8 Name.

Canon EOS R successor is yet to arrive with a redesigned 30.3MP Full-Frame CMOS DPAF 2 Sensor with updated processing for more improved AF, and impressive uncropped 4K videos.
