Upcoming Cameras From Canon, Nikon, Sony, Fuji & More: FCC & CMIIT Camera Registration Database

What comes next – Canon

Canon is leading the list with 5 unannounced cameras. After the EOS R8 Mark II launch, we have five China radio codes still with no retail name. They are not one camera filed five times: the numbers are non-consecutive, and the radios differ. Starting with the DS126991 is the odd one out – 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi only, with no Bluetooth on the certificate – which clearly indicates that it’s a PowerShot camera and nothing else.  FCC grant AZD264 (July 23, 2026, “Digital Camera”) is consistent with that compact.

Now we have a series of registrations: DS126973, DS126965 and DS126986 are dual-band Wi-Fi and Bluetooth filings in the interchangeable-lens class. If we look at the recent data from the rumour mill, then the model code is heavily connected with Canon R7 Mark II.

Other camera in the list also includes, R10 Mark II and another unidentified R body.  One of the cameras that specifically starts with ID0191 sits apart when compared to the traditional model codes: DSC. In general, it uses a cinema-style ID prefix, lists dual-band Wi-Fi 5 and no Bluetooth, and is the strongest paperwork for a new Cinema EOS or video body rather than a stills camera. Recently announced hybrids stay on existing packs – LP-E6P (2,130 mAh) for the R6 V, R6 Mark III and C50, LP-E17 for the R8 Mark II and R50 V. No new battery type appears in the unannounced certificates we could verify. A typical few-month lag from a China grant still points to late 2026 into early 2027 for the June–August codes, with ID0191 more likely a later cinema announcement.

What comes next — Nikon

In the Nikon table, we have two unannounced China camera codes remaining after N2527 was identified as the Z5IIC. Nikon’s own Z5IIC manual states “Z5II：N2527,” matching CMIIT certificate 2026-8018, issued April 24, 2026. That leaves N2324 (April 7, 2026) and N2528 (August 24, 2026). Both use the same dual-band 5.1 / 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi and Bluetooth class seen on recent mid and entry Z bodies (Z50 II, Z5 II, ZR, Z5IIC), not a flagship tri-band radio. That is a useful negative: these filings do not, by themselves, look like a new Z9-class body. Public documents also do not match either remaining code to the rumoured Z70.

The Z70 remains a separate story. Nikon has not announced the camera. What is on the FCC book is CGJ1162ED, a wireless remote controller granted May 6, 2026 and tied to internal code N2416, which has been read as a Z70 accessory rather than a body grant. Nikon has no newer camera-body FCC grant than that remote; the previous CGJ camera filings date back several years. N2528 was subsequently reported as registered in Indonesia as well, which is consistent with a product headed for more than one market, but it still does not name the camera. Announced full-frame bodies (Z5 II, ZR, Z5IIC) stay on the EN-EL15c; the Z50 II uses EN-EL25a and the P1100 uses EN-EL20a. Nothing in the open certificates documents a new battery family. N2324 is already well inside a typical three-to-six-month announcement window; the August N2528 filing more naturally points to late 2026 or early 2027.

What comes next – Sony

And yes, finally we have the Sony, currently showing two unannounced camera codes, and they may describe one body or two.

• WW261362 is registered to Sony Corporation, Japan (the same path used for the a7R VI). Higher-end Alpha bodies follow this route more often than entry-level or some FX models.
• The NP-SA100 battery listed with WW491229 is the same pack used in the a7R VI and FX5. That puts it in the mid-to-high-end power class, not with older NP-FZ100 bodies.
• The a7S III is from July 2020 (~6 years old), so it is overdue for a refresh. An FX successor is still possible, but the Japan registration + NP-SA100 combination fits an a7S IV better than most other candidates.

The California record, as reported, names the NP-SA100 battery (7.82 V / 2,670 mAh) and the XQZ-UC1 USB-C charger. That pack is the one already used by the a7R VI and the FX5, so WW491229 sits in the same mid-to-high-end power class, not with older NP-FZ100 bodies. Best fit for A7S series replacement.

What comes next — Fujifilm

Fujifilm Has Three Unreleased Camera Codes in China – All Wi-Fi 6 (High-End APS-C Mirrorless Cameras)

Fujifilm currently has three unreleased camera codes in China, all in the tri-band Wi-Fi 6 class. That is a clear step up from the 2.4 GHz-only FF250003 filing that became the X-T30 III.

FF260001, certified April 7, 2026, is the strongest X-T6 candidate. A later FCC grant, W2Z-03000019 (May 27, 2026), is listed as a “DIGITAL CAMERA.” Its photos and user manual stay confidential until November 24, 2026. The public grant does not print a retail name; the exhibits use an internal ID, FI054. We therefore treat “X-T6” as a well-supported reading, not a fact printed on the FCC certificate.

FF260002 and FF260004 remain unidentified. Rumours split among an X-Pro4, an X-H3, and a new GFX body. Those names are guesses.

Battery Note

A new NP-W255 battery has also been rumoured around the X-T6. That does not appear on the radio certificates. Current mid-range X bodies still ship with the NP-W126S, while recent GFX cameras use the NP-W235.

Timeline

Historically, Fujifilm’s FF codes have mapped cleanly onto later announcements (X-E5, X-T30 III, GFX ETERNA 55, X half, and others), which is why this series is worth watching. The lag can still run several months, and in a few past cases a registration only became public around announcement.

What comes next – Panasonic Lumix

Panasonic’s 2026 China Codes Are Mostly Used Up – One Body Still Live

Panasonic’s 2026 China codes have mostly been used up. P2409A and P2501A align with the Lumix L10 and the ZS300 / TZ300 after those cameras were announced. P2503A later appeared as the China-market S1 II NT variant.

That leaves one live unannounced body: P2502A, registered November 6, 2026, with dual-band 5.1 / 2.4 GHz radio and no Wi-Fi 6 reported.

What P2502A Tells Us

The missing Wi-Fi 6 detail is the most useful fact on the certificate. It suggests an existing platform rather than a new radio generation. That is why guesses have clustered around an S9 II, a compact Micro Four Thirds body, or a cine camera – and why none of those names can be locked in.

Timeline

A typical lag of a few months from a China registration would put P2502A in early 2027, possibly around CP+, but that is a pattern, not a date Panasonic has set.

What comes next – OM System / Olympus

The most recent OM System registration that leaked a camera early was IM042, reported in Singapore in May 2026 without a retail name. That code was later announced as the new PEN on September 9, 2026, and it introduced a new pack, the BLS-7, reported at 1,285 mAh. That is a useful reminder that this brand’s pre-launch trail sometimes shows up outside the FCC and China CMIIT first. Since that announcement, we have not found a new unannounced camera-body code in FCC, CMIIT, or the other agencies checked for this page.

What comes next – Hasselblad

Hasselblad does leak cameras through radio filings –  the X2D II 100C was tracked as HB722, with a reported FCC grant on December 2, 2024, months before the August 26, 2025 announcement – but there is no successor code in the 2026 databases we checked. No new CMIIT camera certificate or fresh FCC camera-body grant for a still-unannounced Hasselblad body turned up in this sweep. That is the finding, not a prediction that the company has stopped developing cameras.

Because Hasselblad launches rarely, older models such as the original X2D, the 50-megapixel 907X / CFV II, and the X1D II are still the reference points. Several of those older registration codes remain TBC rather than guessed.

Until a new HB-prefix filing, a 2AEFA camera grant, or a China radio certificate appears, there is no responsible “next camera” name to put in an upcoming row. We will add one when the paperwork does.

What comes next — Leica

Leica’s 2025–2026 launch list is already public: the SL3-P in June 2026, the Q3 Monochrom and M EV1 in late 2025, the SL3-S in January 2025, and the Q3 43 in September 2024. What we do not have is an open, unnamed camera-body filing that would point to the next one. On the FCC side, grantee N5A’s latest grant is N5A6939, issued July 17, 2026 for a binocular with a laser rangefinder. The most recent digital-camera grant, N5A4246 on November 18, 2025, sits two days before the Q3 Monochrom announcement. The timing is consistent with that camera, but the public grant does not print the retail name, so we do not treat the match as proven. No 2026 CMIIT camera certificate for an unannounced Leica body was found in this pass.
