Canon R6 V Full Specs Leaked: 7K RAW Open Gate, Active Cooling & $2499 Price

Now we have double confirmation over the Canon R6 V camera core specifications. We had already shared details on April 22nd, 2026, and in that article, we clearly mentioned the possible core specifications of the upcoming camera, which include a 32.5-megapixel sensor that we have already seen in the Canon R6 Mark III, as well as 7K 60p internal RAW recording. Fortunately, the same core specifications were published by CanonRumors a day ago. That seems to confirm what we had written on April 22.

Before we begin lets talk about the official date of the upcoming camera,

Canon EOS R6 V Announcement Date Confirmed

Yes, as per rumors and Multiple reliable leaks now align perfectly:

  • Official unveiling: May 13, 2026
  • Shipping: June 2026

The camera will launch alongside the brand-new Canon RF 20-50mm f/4L IS USM PZ power-zoom lens — Canon’s first L-series PZ optic for the RF mount.

Canon EOS R6 V Full Specifications (Double Confirmed)

Here’s the complete, up-to-date spec list based on the latest Canon Rumours round-up and our previous coverage:

Feature Canon EOS R6 V Details
Sensor 32.3–32.5 MP Full-Frame FSI CMOS (same as R6 Mark III / C50)
Max Resolution 6960 × 4640 pixels
Video Recording

7K 60p RAW Open Gate (internal)

7K 30p RAW

Up to 6.9K 4:2:2 / ProRes RAW 10-bit

Log Profiles Canon Log 2 & Canon Log 3
Active Cooling Yes — Built-in fan (low/medium/high) + vents
Image Stabilization 7.5-stop IBIS
Autofocus 1053 focus points (Dual Pixel AF, expected to match R6 III level)
Viewfinder None (EVF removed for cine-style design)
Rear Screen High-resolution vari-angle LCD (optimized for video)
Memory Cards Dual slot: CFexpress Type B + UHS-II SD
Shutter Electronic only (1/16000–30 sec)
ISO Range 100–64000 (expandable 50–102400)
Body Design Cross-hatch grip (like EOS R1), weather-sealed, cinema-style ergonomics
Weight Approx. 598 g (body only)
Battery LP-E6P
Price (Body Only) €2,549 (≈ $300–400 cheaper than EOS R6 Mark III)

Photography performance The upcoming Canon R6V is expected to be nearly identical to the EOS R6 Mark III, but in Video, the Canon R6V does have superiority over the R6 III, and is open for future firmware updates

Why the Canon EOS R6 V Is a Game-Changer for Video Creators

The biggest upgrades are exactly where creators need them most:

  • 7K Open Gate RAW — Massive resolution and flexibility for cropping, reframing, and future-proofing your footage.
  • Active Cooling Fan — This was actually missing inside the Canon R6 III camera, so even while using the Canon R6V in extreme weather condition.No more overheating during long 7K takes or gimbal runs.
  • IBIS + Power-Zoom Lens Pairing — Perfect for run-and-gun documentary work and smooth cinematic zooms.

This is Canon’s direct answer to hybrid creators who want cinema-level video tools without jumping to the much more expensive Cinema EOS line.

Pricing Strategy: More Affordable Than You Expected

At $2,499 / €2,54 body only, the Canon EOS R6 V undercuts the current EOS R6 Mark III by roughly €350. That makes it one of the most accessible full-frame 7K RAW cameras ever from Canon – perfect for serious YouTubers, indie filmmakers, and wedding videographers who want pro features at a more reasonable price.

Canon RF 20-50mm f/4L IS USM PZ Lens – The Perfect Companion

The new power-zoom lens is also confirmed for the May 13 announcement. While full optical specs are still limited, early signs point to:

  • Constant f/4 aperture
  • L-series is built with weather sealing
  • Smooth power-zoom mechanism (USM motor)
  • Optical IS

This will be a killer kit lens for the R6 V — ideal for gimbal work, vlogging, and documentary shooting.

Final Thoughts: The Wait Is Almost Over

We called the core specifications weeks ago – and today’s Canon Rumors round-up gives us double confirmation on the sensor, 7K RAW capabilities, active cooling, price, and exact announcement date.

The Canon EOS R6 V is shaping up to be one of the most exciting releases of 2026 for video-first creators.

Mark your calendars: May 13, 2026.

We’ll be live-covering the announcement right here on thenewcamera.com with hands-on impressions, sample footage analysis, and full comparison guides the moment Canon pulls back the curtain.

Sony A7R VI Coming on May 13, 2026: Latest Rumors and Updates

Insta360 Luna Ultra Early Reviews

Sony A7R VI Coming on May 13, 2026: Latest Rumors and Updates

sony a7R6 image

Sony A7R VI & FE 100-400mm f/4.5 GM Lens Rumoured for May 13, 2026 Announcement: Full Specs, Pricing, and What It Means for Photographers. We have confirmation that Sony is gearing up for its major announcement on May 13, 2026. At London time 3 PM, alongside a Sony FE 100-400mm f/4.5 GM Master lens.

This is really exciting news, but we still need multiple confirmations. Specifically, we are waiting for official teasers from Sony itself before the announcement, which will be the maker’s final confirmation of the camera’s arrival.

Confirmed: Sony A7R VI Announcement Date is May 13, 2026

So, how did we come to this date? At first, the date matches the already registered Alpha Universe event, which is scheduled to take place in the United States of America between May 14 and 15. Now, this is not only a coincidence that the arrival date of the Sony A7R VI matches the date that has already been publicly posted by Alpha Universe.

May14 image

So now the big question is, is the A7R VI camera really coming on that specific date, or is this just a claim made by the rumour mill? Well, it will become very clear in just a few days, but the good thing is the SonyAlphaRumors claim is now backed by PhotoRumors, which now does make us believe that yes, there is a probability with higher chances of the A7R VI camera’s arrival on that specific date, but still, we are waiting for further confirmations and teasers from official sources to confirm the same.

Multiple independent sources now align on May 13, 2026, as the official reveal date. This matches an already-registered Alpha Universe event in the US on May 14–15.

Sony A7R VI Rumoured Specs: 67MP Fully Stacked Sensor That Could “Kill” the A1 II

Let’s discuss the core specification of the upcoming camera. According to the rumor mill, the upcoming camera feature? A ~67 megapixel fully stacked (or heavily stacked) full-frame Exmor RS sensor — the second stacked sensor in Sony’s Alpha line after the A1 II, but with significantly higher resolution.

Here’s what trusted sources are reporting:

  • Sensor: ~67MP fully/partially stacked CMOS with ultra-fast readout (~60 fps full sensor in 14-bit mode)
  • Burst shooting: Up to 30 fps 14-bit RAW with AF/AE tracking and RAW pre-capture
  • IBIS: Up to 8.5 stops of compensation
  • Video: 4K 120p, 10-bit, plus possible 8K/30p or even higher modes (sources are still confirming exact video limits)
  • EVF: 9.44 million-dot OLED with latest upgrades from the A7R V
  • Autofocus: Latest AI processing engine with major improvements in subject recognition and tracking
  • Body design: All-new ergonomics (no left-side dial like the A1 II)
  • Processor: BIONZ XR2 + High-Bandwidth LSI
  • Dynamic range: Up to 16 stops in mechanical shutter via Dual Conversion Gain HDR

In short, the Sony A7R VI is rumored to combine the resolution of the A7R V with the speed and video prowess of the A1 II – at a much more accessible price point.

Sony A7R VI Price: Ballpark €5,000–5,500 / ~$4,999–$5,099

Yes, what we expected for now, and it’s a jump from the current A7R V (which sells for ~$3,000–$3,300 street price today).

Sources close to the launch indicate the Sony A7R VI body-only will land around $4,999–$5,099 in the US and slightly above €5,000 in Europe.

While that sounds steep, remember: you’re essentially getting A1 II-level performance + 67MP resolution for roughly $2,000 less than the current A1 II. Many photographers are already calling this the “A1 II killer” for stills-first hybrid shooters.

New Sony FE 100-400mm f/4.5 GM Lens: Not a Mark II – A Completely New Design

Alongside the A7R VI comes a brand-new constant-aperture telephoto: the Sony FE 100-400mm f/4.5 GM.

Important note: This is not a replacement for the existing 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 GM. It’s a fresh G Master design with:

  • Constant f/4.5 aperture across the entire zoom range
  • Internal zoom mechanism (no extending barrel — better balance, weather sealing, and handling)
  • Super lightweight construction (sources describe it as “impressively light” for its class)
  • Premium GM optics and build quality

Expected price: Around €5,000 / ~$5,000 — premium pricing that reflects the internal zoom engineering and constant aperture. It will sit above the current variable-aperture 100-400mm GM and even the 50-150mm f/2 GM in cost.

This lens pairs perfectly with the high-resolution A7R VI for wildlife, sports, and travel photographers who want reach without sacrificing sharpness or speed.

Why This Launch Matters (And Why You Should Care)

The combination of a 67MP stacked sensor, blazing speed, pro video specs, and a brand-new lightweight constant-aperture telephoto makes this one of Sony’s most exciting launches in years. Whether you shoot landscapes at maximum detail, wildlife at distance, or hybrid video/content, the Sony A7R VI could finally deliver the “do-it-all” flagship many have been waiting for.

Xtra Muse 2 Pro: Specifications, Pricing, and U.S. Arrival Date

DJI Pocket 4 Banned in the United States

Insta360 Luna Early Reviews and Hands-On Photos

Insta360 Luna Ultra Hands on image

 The Insta360 Luna is finally here, and we have the detailed hands-on images of the upcoming camera. Fortunately, we also have some early reviews of the Luna series camera, which have been added to this article and have been published.

But before jumping into the content and more details, let me clarify that Insta360 is one of the best handheld gimbal cameras that I have seen after the DJI Pocket series cameras. With the first announcement (yet to hit stores), they made a deep impact on the handheld camera world. And since Pocket 4 and Pocket 4 Pro FCC is pending for now, the Insta360 Luna will get more space to grow. Although XTramuse 2 PRO is also in the announcement pipeline, expected to arrive in May- June 2026.

Insta360 image

The Insta360 Luna is officially here — or at least its early prototype is. Fresh hands-on photos of what appears to be a pre-production Insta360 Luna (likely the dual-lens Luna Ultra or single-lens Luna Pro) have surfaced, giving us the clearest look yet at Insta360’s bold new pocket gimbal camera series.

Co-engineered with Leica and previewed at NAB Show 2026, the Luna series is shaping up to be the strongest challenger yet to DJI’s Osmo Pocket 4 lineup. These exclusive prototype images show the camera in action – screen on, menu visible, gimbal mechanism exposed — complete with classic pre-production white tape.

Here’s everything the photos reveal about the Insta360 Luna hands-on experience, specs, design, and what it means for vloggers, creators, and filmmakers in 2026.

Insta360 luna image

First Look: Insta360 Luna Prototype Design & Build

The image not only gives detailed insight into the construction of the Insta360 Luna

Insta360 Luna Screen Menu Breakdown: Real Specs Leaked

One of the most exciting parts of these hands-on shots is the on-screen menu in Chinese, which gives us the first concrete look at video capabilities:

  • Aspect ratio: 16:9 (standard cinematic)
  • Resolutions:
    • 8K (likely marketing or future firmware — early hands-on videos mention 4K as primary)
    • 4K
    • 2.7K
  • Frame rates (highly competitive):
    • Up to 120 fps at 4K/2.7K (smooth slow-motion)
    • 100 fps options
    • Standard 30/25 fps modes

insta360 image

Additional Key design highlights visible in the prototype photos:

  • Rotatable touchscreen – A crisp 2-inch OLED display (estimated 1000 nits brightness from early leaks) that flips and rotates for easy framing in selfie or low-angle shots.
  • Modular gimbal head – The top module detaches or twists, hinting at the “Twist Modular Design” mentioned in recent leaks. This could allow for creative mounting or future accessories.
  • Leica-tuned lens housing – The top module proudly reads “DESIGNED BY INSTA360” with a distinctive blue accent button (likely power or mode selector).
  • Physical controls – Dedicated record button with glowing red indicator light, joystick-style wheel, and a textured grip for one-handed operation.

This aligns perfectly with official NAB 2026 previews: the Luna series features a 1-inch sensor, f/1.8 bright aperture, 10-bit iLog colour, and up to 14 stops of dynamic range. The 8K listing suggests Insta360 is pushing boundaries beyond the DJI Osmo Pocket 4’s 4K/240fps claims.

Insta360 Luna Ultra Early Reviews

The dual-camera version (Luna Ultra) includes a wide-angle lens plus a telephoto module for seamless zoom — early leaks point to 3x–6x optical/lossless zoom with variable focal lengths. The single-lens Luna Pro targets direct Osmo Pocket 4 competition.

Final Thoughts: Is the Insta360 Luna a Game-Changer?

Yes its without an donut. These prototype photos prove the Insta360 Luna is a very strong contender and an excellent camera. The visible 8K video recording capability was never possible with Pocket series cameras, even with their newest addition, the Pocket 4 camera.

The announcement is about to happen on May 2026, shipping details and pre-order links will be posted alongside the official announcement

What do you think? Will the Insta360 Luna Ultra dethrone the Osmo Pocket 4? Drop your thoughts in the comments.

Xtra Muse 2 Pro: Specifications, Pricing, and U.S. Arrival Date

DJI Pocket 4 Pro Photo Shoot Images Leak Online

Xtra Muse 2 Pro: Specifications, Pricing, and U.S. Arrival Date

Xtra Muse PRO 2  interesting move to capture the market. Overall, it’s to be expected.

This Pocket 4 Pro camera is about to arrive in the month of May or June 2025, as per the latest set of rumors we have, and recently we have also published the major leak of the Pocket 4 Pro camera, which includes its teaser video as well as a lot of images of the camera. Other than that, the big issue with both the new cameras, the Pocket 4 Pro and the Pocket 4, is their availability in the United States of America, since, as we all know, despite clearing the FCC registration before the December 25 ban, they are still facing trouble, and their recent FCC clearance is still in pending, according to DJI officials themselves.

The Xtra brand announcement done Teaser announcement on April 24, 2026, on their official Twitter and Instagram handles, it does confirms that the Xtra Muse 2 Pro is coming. And the best part is the image of the Xtra Muse 2 Pro looks exactly similar to the DJI Pocket 4 Pro camera. As we all know, the Pocket 4 series and other DJI products ( latest Lito drones and gimbal cameras) are facing hurdles in the United States of America, but thankfully, we have options like the Xtra Muse brand, which does give us an excellent alternative to buy those cameras that we love, specifically from DJI, under the Xtra Muse brand name.

So again, if you are willing for an upgrade over the Pocket 3 camera, not satisfied with the Pocket 4, or you are thinking that the Pocket 4 Pro is coming but you are not able to buy it due to the ban issues and all that stuff, then you should wait for the Xtra Muse 2 Pro camera announcement.

Xtra Muse PRO 2 image

Xtra Muse 2 Pro Specifications

Let’s explore the core specification of the upcoming XTRA Muse 2 Pro Camera for pro creators in the United States of America,  but before we jump into the core specification keep in mind the   the Muse 2 Pro (it’s still in the teaser phase), multiple insider reports, industry leaks, and direct alignment with the Pocket 4 Pro’s anticipated hardware point to the following key upgrades:

  • Dual-Module Lens System: 1-inch CMOS sensor main module (for superior low-light, dynamic range, and cinematic quality) + dedicated 3x optical zoom lens module — exactly matching the rumored Pocket 4 Pro configuration for lossless telephoto reach.
  • Video Capabilities: Expected 4K/120fps or higher, with strong rumors of 4K/240fps slow-motion support for ultra-smooth cinematic effects.
  • Stabilization: Advanced 3-axis mechanical gimbal (building on the current Muse’s rock-solid performance).
  • Screen & Controls: 2-inch rotatable OLED touchscreen with dedicated portrait mode for seamless vertical social-media shooting.
  • Audio & Features: 3 built-in microphones, 10-bit X-Log color, fast autofocus, intelligent face/object tracking, and likely expanded storage (rumors mention up to 128GB built-in).
  • Design: Ultra-compact pocket-sized form factor (similar to the current Muse’s ~140mm length and 180g weight), available in Black or White.
  • Additional Perks: Enhanced low-light performance, Wi-Fi/Bluetooth connectivity, USB-C, and full U.S.-optimized firmware with local support.

These specs position the Muse 2 Pro as a true pro-level pocket gimbal camera experience while keeping the fun,

Xtra Muse 2 Pro U.S. Arrival Date and Possible Pricing

Arrival Date: Xtra has officially confirmed the Muse 2 Pro is coming to the U.S. with the April 24 teaser and follow-up replies stating the full Muse 2 series is expected to launch in the U.S. around mid-2026 (June–July window most likely). Pre-orders or early availability could begin as soon as late May.

Possible Pricing: No official price has been announced yet, but based on the current Xtra Muse (which retails around $379–$419 on sale and originally listed near $699), the Muse 2 Pro is expected to land in the $499–$649 range. This premium-yet-accessible positioning would make it a compelling value compared to the Insta360 Luna series or gray-market DJI imports, especially with full U.S. warranty, support, and no import risks.

Pricing will likely be confirmed closer to launch, with possible bundles including extra modules or accessories.

Bottom Line for U.S. Creators

The DJI Pocket 4 and 4P/Pro are fantastic on paper and as an actual product, but we know the “pending authorization” means they’re simply not an option for most Americans right now. Xtra’s timely official tease of the Muse 2 Pro – amplified by voices like Quadro_News (obviously one of the most authentic sources) – feels like a deliberate and smart market move. It gives U.S. buyers the exact hardware combination (1-inch sensor + 3x zoom) they’ve been waiting for, without the wait.

Stay tuned for more updates coming

DJI Pocket 4 Banned in the United States

DJI Pocket 4 Pro Teaser 

 

DJI Pocket 4 Pro Photo Shoot Images Leak Online

DJI Osmo Pocket 4 Pro has released a major new series of images today, featuring an extensive professional photo-style shoot with the new Pocket 4 Pro camera, with many influencers and models, specifically taking place somewhere in mainland China just before its official launch, so as we were expecting the Pocket 4 Pro Professional.

The leak consists of five separate posts (Parts 1–5) and includes approximately 18 high-quality real-world images — by far the largest and most detailed look at the upcoming pocket gimbal camera so far.

Pocket 4 Pro image

DJI pocket 4 PRO image

DJI pocket 4 camera images

What the New Images Show

  • Several KOLs and female creators are actively filming with the Pocket 4P in beautiful outdoor locations (turquoise lake with mountain backdrop + sunny rocky coastal area).
  • Testers using lighting tools (including a large reflector/umbrella) for professional-level shooting.
  • Group shots of multiple people testing the device together in natural sunlight.
  • Crisp close-up prototype views of the black Pocket 4P unit, clearly showing the “POCKET” branding, folding gimbal, and build details.
  • Side-by-side size comparisons with the standard Osmo Pocket 4 and Pocket 3.
  • One intriguing shot also includes an unidentified new DJI drone next to the Pocket series.

These polished “photo shoot” images confirm that DJI is in the advanced testing phase and has already brought in multiple influencers/KOLs for real-world trials.

Expected Specs & Launch Timeline

We have already discussed the possibility of its announcement sometime from May to June 2026. The Pocket 4 Pro is expected to bring major upgrades, including:

  • 1-inch sensor main camera on the right (promising superior low-light performance and dynamic range)
  • 3x telephoto lens on the left (enabling true optical zoom without heavy digital cropping)
  • Enhanced creative flexibility for portrait/vertical video, interviews, and cinematic shots

Why This Leak Matters

Seeing the Pocket 4P in a full professional photo shoot with multiple creators shows that DJI is treating this as a flagship product. The quality of these images also suggests the camera itself is performing very well in real-world conditions.

We’ll continue tracking every new development. As soon as official specs or a firm launch date drop, you’ll see it here first.

DJI Pocket 4 Pro Teaser Leaked

DJI Pocket 4 Banned in the United States

 

DJI Pocket 4 Banned in the United States

Dji Pocket 4 camera image

Is it true that the DJI Pocket 4 camera is banned in the USA? Just a few months ago, we saw that the DJI Pocket 4 camera received FCC approval for being sold in the United States of America. It has already received FCC approval, so why has it been banned or is it not available in the United States of America? In this article, we will try to find out the exact reason why the Pocket 4 camera is still not available despite FCC approval, and at the same time, the best alternatives that you can buy right now.

The DJI Osmo Pocket 4 has launched globally with impressive upgrades, but US customers cannot buy it through any official channel. 

Let’s see what DJI has recently said officially about the status of the Pocket 4 in the United States of America.

DJI’s Official Statement on US Availability

DJI confirmed directly: “The Osmo Pocket 4 will not be available in the US market at launch due to pending FCC authorisation.”

This quote comes from DJI spokesperson Daisy Kong and was reported by PetaPixel, PCMag, The Verge, Newsshooter, and others in mid-April 2026.

lSO, that’s really a weird thing that even after the approval of the Pocket 4 camera, even after having the registration of the Pocket 4 camera, qualifying all the rules just in time, and most importantly, the Pocket 4 is not a drone. Despite these facts, the Pocket 4 camera still faces issues when used in the United States of America, according to DJI sources. The FCC that was granted to Pocket 4 is now showing as pending. We don’t know the exact reason this was done, since it technically cleared the FCC before the ban.

Why the DJI Pocket 4 Is Blocked in the US

In December 2025, DJI was added to the FCC’s Covered List due to national security concerns. New products from companies on this list now face near-impossible hurdles for FCC equipment authorization – the mandatory approval needed to legally sell any device with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or radio transmitters in America.

The Osmo Pocket 4 is the first major DJI consumer camera to be caught by these stricter rules after the cutoff window closed.

Current Retail Situation for American Buyers

As of April 27, 2026:

    • Major US retailers, including B&H Photo, Adorama, Amazon, and Best Buy are not stocking the DJI Osmo Pocket 4.
    • Grey-market or third-party imports carry real risks of customs delays, seizure, or no warranty support.

What This Means for US Content Creators and Photographers

If you are in any state of America and planning to buy the Pocket 4 camera, obviously, it’s not a good time for that purchase, but again, we do have alternatives.

Either you can wait for the Insta360 Luna, or we have the previous-generation Osmo Pocket 3, which remains fully available, well supported, and an excellent choice for most vloggers and creators.

Xtramus is now fully compatible with the DJI wireless mic and is available at a lower price point, featuring the exact same core specs as the Pocket 3.

Can You Personally Import the DJI Pocket 4?

Technically, yes — US customs generally allow individuals to bring back up to three units for personal use when traveling abroad. However, you will receive no US warranty, official repairs, or software support, and there is always a risk with non-FCC-authorized wireless devices.

The Ongoing DJI Lawsuit Against the FCC

DJI is actively suing the FCC, arguing that the Covered List process was flawed and lacked specific evidence of a security threat. The lawsuit is still in progress with no quick resolution expected. Until the courts or policy changes, new DJI products with wireless features are effectively blocked from the US market.

Recommendation for newcamera.com Readers in the USA

For now, stick with the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 — it is widely available, proven, and remains one of the best pocket gimbal cameras you can actually buy in America today. We will monitor the FCC situation and the ongoing lawsuit closely and update this article the moment anything changes.
