Canon is rumored to announce the Canon R5 Mark II in 2024 and the Canon R5C Mark II camera will arrive sometime in 2025, according to the source of the rumor mill. No details about the specification of the upcoming camera available right now.
Now, if we look at the past, the Canon R5 was announced back in July 2020 and the Canon R5C camera was announced in 2022. So, we do have a good gap between these two cameras and the rumor mill is expecting a similar kind of gap between the announcement of the Canon R5 Mark II and the Canon R5C Mark II.
But at the same time, we have to understand one thing very clearly: the requirement for the Canon R5C camera arose because the Canon R5 was not able to deliver the promised specifications to cinematographers, and due to excessive overheating, Canon announced a separate line of R5C series cameras.
If we look at all the factors, then the R5C was needed at that moment because the original Canon R5 was not able to handle 8K video files properly due to excessive internal overheating.
If Canon makes a perfect Canon R5 Mark II camera with a proper heat sink unit that doesn’t allow the camera to overheat even after extensive use, then there is actually no need for a separate series like an R5C.
On the design part, we would require two extra things: one is an extra port for time code and the other is a full-size HDMI.
