According to the latest rumors from Rumor Mill, Canon may announce two different replacements for the existing Canon R5 camera. One will carry an existing 45-megapixel sensor and the other may have a higher resolution sensor. The rumor mill added he split will be similar to what we have seen in the EOS 5D series.
After the 5D Mark III announcement, Canon also added the Canon 5DS and the 5DS R cameras as higher resolution DSLR options and further continued the 5D series with the 5D Mark IV announcement.
The biggest question is why this rumor has occurred now and not before. Since we already have rumors of the Nikon Z8 and its leaked specification that it will feature the same sensor we have seen in the Nikon Z9. At the same time, just a few days ago, we shared possible specifications of the upcoming Nikon Z7 Mark III camera, the specs say the forthcoming camera will feature a 61-megapixel sensor – the same sensor that we have seen in the Sony A7R4A and A7R5 cameras. This means Nikon will continue both the series Nikon Z8 and Nikon Z7.
In the same fashion, Canon may release two different models with high-resolution sensors that will match and compete against Sony’s A7R series (A7R IVa and A7R V) as well as the upcoming Nikon Z7 Mark III, in addition to a regular Canon R5 camera update with the same 45-megapixel sensor we may have and Canon R5 R camera with 60+ MP Sensor.
