Now we have one more registered Canon camera as we reported a few days ago, and that creates a huge possibility for the replacement of the Canon R7 or R10 as we have discussed in the earlier post too, take a look at the details of Canon registered cameras first
List of Canon Upcoming Cameras

Most of the existing APS-C sensor-based cameras, as well as full-frame sensor-based cameras, are up to date and the Canon R5 Mark II and Canon R1 are coming, as well as the Canon R5C Mark II. So after these full-frame Mirrorless cameras, we can expect Canon to Focus on the APS-C range, where the entry-level Zone is already updated, and the oldest two APS-C Mirrorless cameras in Canon lineup waiting to get an update is the Canon R7 Mark II and Canon 10 MK II or Canon R9
Canon Camera Announcement Dates
Canon R3 Mark – September 13, 2021 [R3 is a flagship-level camera Canon will take 4+ years to update this model ]
Canon R5C Mark – 19 Jan 2022
Canon R6 Mark II – 2nd November 2022
Canon R5 – 09 July 2020
Canon R8 – April 18, 2023
Canon R7 – 24 May 2022
Canon R10 – 24 May 2022
Canon R50 – February 7, 2023
Canon R100 – 24 May 2023
Why are we talking about the Canon R7 Mark II right now?
The Canon R100 camera and Canon R50 are the most updated in the entry-level range. Yes, but there is a chance that we may see an update of the Canon R10 camera in August or September of 2024. And similarly, we have a flagship APS-C camera, the Canon R7. The Canon R7 is completely outdated now; it uses the Canon 90D’s DSLR sensor, and the readout speed of that particular sensor is 29.2 milliseconds, which is way worse than the existing sensors or competitors around the camera.
So there is a very high probability that we will see a Canon R7 Mark II camera shortly with an updated 32-megapixel sensor, a DIGIC X image processor, and the ability to record 6K open gate videos and continuous shooting speed up to 40 frames per second in Craw mode.
The other thing we expect is a true successor of the Canon 90D camera, the Canon R9. Since the transition from DSLR to mirrorless, we have a successor to every camera in the mirrorless range, specifically in the APS-C zone, but the 90D successor hasn’t arrived yet. So the Canon R9 can be selected to be the spiritual successor or the mirrorless successor of the highly popular Canon 90D camera.
List of Canon DSLR Cameras with its Mirrorless Successor
Canon 7D – Canon R7
Canon 90D – Canon R9 [Expected]
Canon 850D – Canon R10
Canon 200D Mark II – Canon R50
Canon 1500D – Canon R100
Why is the release of the Canon R9 imminent?
Canon has two options now either to update the Canon R10 Mark II camera with a 32MP Sensor of Canon R7, but even if they do so it will not properly fill the place of the Canon 90D camera, since the Canon 90D was a professional weather-sealed body with Dual cards slots.
There should be a Canon R9 to complete the incomplete Canon RF Mount APS-C Mirrorless lineup.

Is the R7 a successor to the 90D? I thought the sensor was similar or same, a few other specs are similar.
The quality of images from the sensor are good for the price of the body.
I have problems with the rolling shutter and the way that the pre burst works.
The pre-burst is especially a problem as the files created by DPP4 when extracting Raw files from a burst are different to ordinary Raw and Craw files and a therefore rejected by some software.
Overarching all the above is the fact that the camera does not have three control wheels: Shutter. Aperture. ISO. I have work arounds for this but it seems to me that Canon designers were working an odd brief? Perhaps trying not to prejudice others in the line up?
