Canon Compacts and EOS R100 Drive 60% of Camera Sales in China [Updated]

 

According to a recent interview published by Chinese media, Senior General Manager Zhang Hongtu of the Imaging Information Business Department of Canon China has indicated that Canon’s “Youth Dedicated Mirrorless” series is projected to account for over 60% of Canon’s total camera unit sales in China this year, based on a market sales forecast. This projection highlights Canon’s strategic focus on appealing to a younger, social media-savvy audience.

Canon’s micro audience, largely consisting of young content creators active on social media platforms, has shown a strong preference for compact, entry-level APS-C mirrorless options. These models, including the EOS R7, EOS R10, EOS R50, and EOS R100, are designed to support content creation on the go. This series alone is forecasted to comprise over 60% of Canon’s camera unit sales in China, underscoring Canon’s dedication to meeting the needs of China’s vibrant, young creator community.

Canon Confirms: Sigma Full Range of RF Primes Available January 2025

As per a recent Canon with Photo Trend interview, the Canon representative confirmed that the rest of the prime lenses, starting from Sigma 16mm to 23mm to 30mm to 56mm, are all coming in January 2025. So, for those who were waiting for these primes to arrive,

But for now, the RF mount aperture is only on APS-C?
Indeed, it only concerns APS-C for now. But all APS-C lenses (DC DN) in the range will be available by January 2025. Similarly, our 4 fixed focal lengths [16, 23, 30 and 56 mm, Editor’s note] will arrive by January.

Canon RF  APS-C Primes at B&H Store

Sigma 16mm F1.8 DC DN – B&H Store
Sigma 23mm F1.8 DC DN – B&H Store
Sigma 30mm F1.8 DC DN – B&H Store
Sigma 56mm F1.8 DC DN – B&H Store

Back on February 29 of this year, we received confirmation that Canon had finalized deals with Sigma and Tamron. Shortly after that, in April, Sigma made an official press release announcing a zoom lens, the 18-50mm F2.8 DC DN, along with three prime lenses. Later, Sigma also added a 10-18mm zoom lens and a 23mm F1.4 DC DN prime. The zoom lenses, 18-50mm, and 10-18mm, are available for sale, and you can pre-order them right now at the B&H store. However, shipping for the four remaining prime lenses will start in January 2025.

Canon R6 Mark III Specification and more...

So we have the Canon R6 Mark III camera specs surfaced over a Chinese source. Specs remain the same as we discussed back in May 2024. We told you that Canon R3’s  24-megapixel stacked sensor will be used inside the Canon R6 Mark III camera. The same information is again shared by the sources. However, here they specifically mention the sensor model code name, take a look below

Canon R6 Mark III Specifications 

  • 24-megapixel LC1720 sensor.
  • DIGIC Accelerator accelerated processor, 8.5-stop collaborative image stabilization.
  • Same focus system as EOS R5 II.
  • Highly reliable 14-bit 30fps RAW electronic shutter continuous shooting, reading speed 1/180s.
  • In-camera neural network noise reduction and high-resolution magnification.
  • Supports XF-AVC S and XF-HEVC S recording of C4K/120p (S35) and 6K oversampled C4K.
  • Supports 6K30p and 4K60p (S35) Cinema RAW Light recording.

If you talk about the announcement date and based on Canon’s usual pattern for their R5 or R6 series cameras, then as per their schedule, it looks like the R6 Mark III camera will arrive sometime in Q2 or Q3 of 2025. It’s not coming too early, but yeah, we do hope and expect it will arrive with almost the same specs that we are seeing right now.

Canon C400 and C80 Get a Massive Cloud Upgrade - Here’s What You Need to Know

Canon’s Game-Changing Firmware Update: Frame.io Cloud Integration is Coming! Canon’s C400 and C80 are ready to get their update soon, here is the press release

Canon collaborates with Adobe to bring native Frame.io Camera to Cloud integrations to select cameras

Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging solutions, is excited to announce a new collaboration with Adobe to bring Frame.io’s Camera to Cloud connectivity to select cameras, starting with the EOS C400 and EOS C80, enabling users to send proxy files directly from the camera for a faster and more secure path from production to post. The new feature, activated in-camera, will be included in a free firmware update scheduled for a Winter 2024 release from Canon USA. It will be available for download on the Canon USA Website.

The update supports simultaneous proxy file transmission to Camera to Cloud from the EOS C400 and EOS C80 cameras while recording original camera files (OCF) and proxy files internally. The proxy files can be sent over wireless or a wired Ethernet connection.

Canon’s proxy files match the same filename, timecode stream, and metadata fields as the original camera files, and are natively supported for playback on Frame.io.  The efficient proxy files are available to view, share, and edit remotely without requiring additional processing or conversion. The proxy files can be uploaded to the cloud, automatically, allowing for a more streamlined workflow, with videographers in one location able to quickly share proxy files with their team in a separate location.

Stay tuned, more updates are coming

Canon R5C Mark II Early Specification Leaked

Canon R5C Mark II Early specifications surfaced over the web, there is a high probability these specs are of one of the EARLY PROTOTYPE of the upcoming camera, in genral a camera maker tests several prototypes of a high-end camera before the finalize the production line version. Take a look at the set of specs, of the upcoming Canon R5C Mark II camera

Canon R5C Mark II Rumored Specification

  1. Dual System Design with Active Cooling:
    The Canon R5C Mark II will continue the “dual system” setup as we have seen in the original Canon R5C, where the camera can function as both a high-performance stills camera (like the R5) and a cinema camera (for video production). The mention of a “square, thickened active cooling body” indicates that the upcoming R5C II will have an enhanced thermal management system, likely allowing uninterrupted recording in every ALL available resolution of the camera.
  2. Introduction of SDI Interface: Now, that’s the most important part of the rumored specs we have read so far, the Canon R5C Mark II upcoming camera will use or have an SDI port. Again as per the source, the camera maker may swipe the HDMI in favour of SDI,  or they may keep both as an option to the user. SDI is typically more reliable and provides better signal quality over longer distances, which is a common requirement in professional video setups.
  3. The 4K RAW Video Changes: No lower quality 4K SRAW (which was a lower-resolution form of RAW), but instead will feature a higher-resolution format: 4096×4320 pixels. This is a sub-pixel merging technique, which effectively produces a more detailed “native” 4K output by using higher-resolution data and downsampling it intelligently. This likely improves image quality in terms of sharpness and color accuracy.
  4. The 4K/24-60p YUV Video: Introduction of Custom Sensor READOUT speed pattern as per user requirement
    The R5C II offers a YUV video format in 4K resolution, with two modes:

    • High-Quality Mode (8192×4320 Sampling): Here, the camera samples from an 8K resolution (8192×4320) to produce a very detailed 4K output.
    • High-Speed Mode (4096×4320 Sampling): This mode uses 4K footage but samples it horizontally rather than vertically. This adjustment could be aimed at optimizing performance while maintaining good color depth and resolution in YUV422 format (commonly used in professional video work).

Overall, if we look at the rumored set of core specifications, the Canon R5 Mark II camera features enhanced core specifications compared to the original Canon R5C, especially in terms of resolution and video output options.

Canon Selling 2X More Cameras then Sony in China

So according to our latest report, Canon is selling twice as many cameras as Sony in China. Recent reports suggest that Canon has captured more than 50% of the market share in China. As we all know, Canon is the leading camera manufacturer in the world.

  • A Chinese social media account on Weibo shared a rare glimpse into China’s camera market, and it was surprising: Canon sold twice as many cameras as Sony and four times as many as Nikon. Weibo account Camera Obsession posted: “The 2024-2029 Digital Camera Industry
  • Market Detailed Analysis and Development Strategy Research Report released by the China Academy of Industrial Research points out that well-known brands such as Canon, Nikon, Sony and Fuji are still dominant. Canon continues to lead the market with a market share of nearly 50% due to its strong research and technological development capabilities and brand influence. Sony and Nikon rank second and third with market shares of 26.1% and 11.7%, respectively.”

If we take a look at the past month’s BCN ranking

1st place: EOS R10 RF-S18-150 IS STM Lens Kit
2nd place: EOS R50 Double Zoom Kit Black
3rd place: EOS R50 Double Zoom Kit White

(※9th place seems to be a mistake for the ZV-E10 II Power Zoom Lens Kit Black)
