The sensor is new, the camera is using a step-above version of the Canon DPAF system based sensor used inside the Canon 800D / T8i camera.
Advantages of New Sensor
Eye AF: WIth the help of the new sensor, the camera can now track eyes very effectively without any issues.
More Better Tracking: With the implementation of the new sensor the AF tracking of the camera is also improved compared to it’s the processor.
NOTE: The sensor of the camera is the same as we have seen in the Canon 200D II / SL3. Since it also carries the same 3rd gen DPAF 234MP sensor as the Canon 850D / T8i.
So, you will be getting a better sensor than the Canon 850D but, the sensor performance will remain similar to the Canon entry-level HYBRID Camera.

The sensor low-light performance, dynamic range is almost the same. Nothing new inside. The only thing we will notice is enhanced AF performance of the camera compared to its predecessor.
Electronic shutter in Canon 850D / T8i Camera
The Canon 850D camera uses an electronic shutter to reach its maximum continuous shooting speed limit of 7.5 FPS (in live view mode). With Mechanical shutter of the camera limited to 7FPS shooting. So, we are getting 1.5FPS faster-shooting speed compared to Canon 800D cameras.

Canon 850D vs Canon 800D which one has better Video Recording mode?
The Canon 850D camera does have a 4K video recording option, But, we have to face the same limitations we have faced in the Canon EOS M550, 200D II or Canon EOS M200. Canon 850D camera suffers from cropping issues in 4K video recording mode at the same time the DPAF system goes off during the 4K video recording mode resulting in a very slow AF performance of the camera while recording 4K video. So, the 4K video mode of the Canon 850D camera is not so usable. It’s better to record videos in Full HD VIdeo mode only.
Canon 850D 4K Crop Factor
With a Canon 850D camera we have to face 1.7X Crop factor. At the same time in 4K video mode, we are limited to contrast-based AF systems. So, the Auto Focus of the camera becomes excessively slow as well as always hunts for focus.

Verdict:
The Canon 850D / T8i camera does arrive with a lot of improvements. But, Video mode of the camera remains the same as we have in Canon 200D II or SL3 camera.
If you are a still shooter / Photographer then you should go with the Canon 850D / T8i camera. Since with the Canon 850D / T8i camera you are getting an improved 3rd generation DPAF and a 45 Point Phase AF module. Canon 850D also offers Continuous shooting speed up to 7.5 FPS.
If you are a Youtuber / Videographer then you should know that the Video mode of the Canon 850D is exactly similar to the Canon 200D II camera. So, it’s better to invest in Lenses instead of investing in a camera body when you are getting the same video mode, sensor and image processor in Canon 200D II.
Canon recently announced the Canon 850D / T8i camera. The camera features advance AF capability compared to Canon 800D camera. The camera also have vertical mode video recording as we have seen in the Canon G7X mark III camera.
Canon 850D sample images now available, You can check out these images as you like and you can download them too for your personal use.
Finally Canon announced the long rumored Canon 850D camera. The Camera do have noticeable upgrades from Canon 800D, but more or less the core specs of the camera remains same. The new Canon 850D camera uses same sensor as of Canon 200D II and same Digic 8 image processor. At the same time in video mode we have to face same cropping issue while recording 4K videos and no DPAF available while recording 4K. It’s not a worthy upgrade if you already own Canon 800D or 200D II camera
Canon 850D / T8i Press Release
The Next Generation: Canon Announces The Development Of The Company’s Most Advanced Full-Frame Mirrorless Camera Ever – The EOS R5
The Company will Also Develop Seven RF Lenses and Two RF Lens Extenders in 2020
MELVILLE, NY, February 12, 2020 – Canon U.S.A. Inc., a leader in digital imaging solutions, today announced that its parent company, Canon Inc., is developing the highly anticipated Canon EOS R5 full-frame mirrorless camera. The camera will feature a newly designed CMOS sensor and new image processor, along with new state-of-the-art optical technologies the company has been able to cultivate through its long history of groundbreaking camera and digital imaging solutions development. In addition, Canon plans to release seven RF lenses and two RF lens extenders that are currently in development. These new photography tools will help to continue to strengthen the EOS R system and cement the RF mount as an industry leader.
“Today’s announcement comes as a direct result of the tireless effort of Canon engineers who have been tasked with developing the next generation of Canon EOS R camera and RF lenses to help elevate the popular system that was announced in 2018,” said Kazuto Ogawa, president and chief operating officer, Canon U.S.A., Inc. “In developing the new camera, Canon listened to extensive user-feedback from a variety of photographers. The outcome is a camera and lenses that will delight a variety of shooters and further helps to demonstrate Canon’s commitment to full-frame mirrorless cameras and lenses.”
The EOS R System was initially developed to provide engineers with the ability to design lenses that were thought to be impossible to create previously. The wide lens mount diameter, shorter back focus, and high-speed system for transmitting data between camera and lens have resulted in an imaging system that delivers higher image quality and greater ease-of-use than ever before.
The new full-frame mirrorless camera currently under development will fully leverage the advantages of the EOS R System, helping to produce a camera that features high-speed continuous shooting and 8K video recording. Furthermore, the camera will provide photographers with more efficient workflows thanks to improved transmission functionality, operability and reliability. These enhancements, along with many others, will help to further elevate and solidify the EOS Series concept of “Speed, Comfort and High-Image-Quality.”
Canon’s EOS R5, the first of the next generation of full-frame mirrorless cameras planned for EOS R System, will include a newly developed CMOS sensor. The new sensor will enable enhanced features such as high-speed continuous shooting up to approximately 20 frames-per-second (FPS) when using the silent shutter and up to approximately 12 FPS when using the mechanical shutter – A feature professional sports and wildlife photographers will find to be extremely impactful on their ability to capture fast-moving subjects. From a video perspective, the camera’s 8K video capture capability will prepare videographers for the future of movie-making- capturing 8K footage today allows for even higher-quality 4K productions in addition to the ability to extract high-resolution still images from the video footage. The EOS R5 will be the first Canon camera equipped with IBIS (In Body Image Stabilization) and when used in conjunction with the extremely effective in-lens stabilization (IS), will allow photographers to handhold the camera in light levels not previously imagined. Additionally, the camera will also feature dual-card slots and will support the automatic transfer of image files from the device to the new image.canon cloud platform.
Alongside the EOS R5, Canon is also developing seven RF lenses and two RF lens extenders scheduled for release during 2020, including the RF 100-500mm F4.5-7.1 L IS USM, Extender RF 1.4x and Extender RF 2x.
Additional Information
Reference exhibits for the EOS R5 and RF 100-500mm F4.5-7.1 L IS USM, Extender RF 1.4x and Extender RF 2x will be on display in the Canon booth at the CP+ Camera and Photo Imaging Show 2020, to be held from February 27 to March 1 at the Pacifico Yokohama convention hall in Yokohama, Japan.
A preview of the EOS R5 will be on display at the 2020 WPPI Show (February 25-27) in Las Vegas.

From past few weeks lot of information related to Canon EOS M60 camera surfaced over the web. So, we have decided to publish some of the specs that look logical to us. From the nature of information, it’s look like sources are talking about two different prototypes EOS M50 successor. Surprisingly, announcement time-line as well specs of both differs from each other
