Let’s dig up the source of the rumor

The Canon R5 Mark II camera is being delayed first told by Jan Wegener, according to his trusted sources and industry people he knows said that no Canon R5 mark II from Canon is coming in 2023, instead of that Canon will be focusing on realizing Telephoto zoom lenses for RF Mount. This makes more sense since nowadays bird/wildlife photographers are more preferring Sony system cameras and lenses instead of Canons due to their limited tele-zoom offerings.

TNC Take, Actually, I was expecting Canon R5 Mark II camera official announcement in Nov 2023 and before that, we were expecting its development announcement Aug-Sep 2023. But, it looks like we will have only have Nikon Z8 this year and Canon is out of the High MP Mirrorless race (at least for 2023)
