Canon has registered a PATENT, a Camera that is VERY similar to the DJI Osmo Pocket Creator Kit. The design, display screen, and camera position look almost very identical.
I have a big fear that if Canon announces such a camera, they may face legal trouble for copying the exact design of an existing camera. Although I am not a legal expert, it appears to be very similar—approximately 95%—to the DJI Osmo Pocket Creator Kit.
Canon has been working on multiple sets of vlogging cameras for the past few years. This is not the first time Canon has explored out-of-the-box solutions. Three years ago, they published a series of patents that included a gimbal camera design with an interchangeable lens mount and a unique and innovative complex vlogging camera with a very flexible display screen.
When might it come out?
Generally, a patent typically takes two to three years to become a real product if the camera maker or any company is seriously working on it. So, we might expect such a camera to arrive sometime in late 2026 or early 2027.
Canon Vlogging Camera Patents we have published in the past
List of APS-C Camera published by rumor mill that we may see in the year 2025, now in 2024, we have seen some amazing full-frame camera announcements, but yeah, we are still waiting for the updates on major APS-C models that include the Canon R7 as well as the Canon R10. So let’s discuss the set of possible updates that we may see next year.
So the list starts with the Canon R7 Mark II camera. We already have the Canon R7 camera with a 32.5 MP sensor, but the rumor mill expects a 32.5 MP stacked CMOS sensor inside the upcoming Canon R7 Mk II. BTW, if ur a reader of our website you have noticed that we have already discussed the spec sheet of the upcoming Canon R7 Mark II camera, Let’s see again the particular specs that we expect to be inside the upcoming R7 Mark II camera below. If you wish to know more, click here.
The next camera that the rumor mill discusses is the Canon R10 Mark II camera. Although we were expecting the arrival of the Canon R10 Mark II camera in Aug -Sep 2024. Even rumor mills expect that the same 32.5 MP sensor that we have seen in the Canon R7 body will arrive inside the R10 Mark II body. Again, this is not something new, we have already published the set of specs that we expect from the Canon R10 mark II camera
Canon R10 Mark II Rumored Specification
32.5MP APS-C CMOS Sensor
Dual Pixel CMOS AF II
4K60 10-Bit Video, HDR-PQ (NO lOG)
15 fps Mech. Shutter
2.36m-Dot OLED EVF
1.6m-Dot Vari-Angle Touchscreen LCD
Sensor-Shift 5-Axis Image Stabilization
Single SD Card Slot
Multi-Function Shoe, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth
The main reason why it should have a 32.5 MP sensor (non-stacked version) is the arrival of a 26 MP sensor inside, Sony’s ZV-E10 Mark II camera arrived with 26 MP BSI CMOS Sensor, as well as the arrival of a 40 MP sensor inside Fuji X-T50 Camera. You can see all the existing competitors scaling up their resolution, so if Canon fails to do so, they will surely face a big hit in their sales, which they are already experiencing, so again if they fail to do so, they will have to face the expected consequences.
Now, this is something unique, as we have not yet discussed the Canon R50 Mark II camera. Rumors suggest that we may see the Canon R50 Mark II camera next year (Aug- Sep 2024). Although they are not very specific about the specs of the R50 Mark II camera. Now, what we are expecting right now is a smooth transition of Canon R10 specs inside the Canon R50 Mark II next year, and similarly, the R7 specs will have a smooth transition inside the R7 Mark II. That’s how the industry works, and that’s what we should see next year.
Canon R50 Mark II Expected Core Specification
24.2MP APS-C CMOS Sensor
Dual Pixel CMOS AF II
4K30 Video, 4K60 with Crop; HDR-PQ
1.04m-Dot Vari-Angle Touchscreen LCD
Multi-Function Shoe, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth
The next rumor we are getting is about the Canon R200 camera. Again, Canon can’t announce the R200, instead, they will pick the R100 Mark II name, a. But even before that, we are expecting the arrival of the Canon V100 camera, which is a bit more vlogging-centric and without an electronic viewfinder. So that’s what we are expecting right now from Canon. It will be very interesting to see what Canon unfolds in front of us in the upcoming months, as we are eagerly waiting with high curiosity to see what’s coming next.
Canon R5 Mark II camera overheating test videos have now surfaced on the web from those who have purchased this camera with their own money and are now testing it out. So, we have to believe that, specifically for those who have purchased this camera, they are providing rock-solid and pure information, not influenced by any brand. These are not brand influencers; they are real consumers out there.
Now, after the tests, what they have found is that the overheating chart provided by the Digital Photography Review team, which is also similar to what we can see on Canon’s official website, is correct. If you are shooting videos at a temperature of 23 degrees Celsius.
All figures are measured with the camera in an unused state, with both the camera and environment at 23°C (73°F). Use in warmer conditions or direct sunshine will shorten all of these times.

The big issue is that not everyone lives in cooler regions; many professional video camera users are located near the equator. During the summer season, temperatures can easily reach 40-45 degrees Celsius [40 degrees Celsius is equal to 104 degrees Fahrenheit]. We have to wait for more test results from those regions to see how this camera performs under stressful environmental conditions.
On the bright side, we do have a cooling grip from Canon that cools the camera down more quickly—about 2x faster than without using that particular grip. It also extends the recording time, which will surely help those living near the equator or in areas with harsher summer conditions.
The latest set of rumors we have suggests that Canon is working on a high-resolution monster camera. Undoubtedly, the Canon R1 is not the flagship camera we should consider competing against the Nikon Z9 and the Sony Alpha A1. These words come from someone who knows what’s happening inside Canon.
It seems like a damage control act. People who were waiting for a perfect Nikon Z9 and Sony Alpha A1 competitor are slightly disappointed. They were expecting a higher-end flagship camera but instead got what feels like an R3 Mark II camera inside the Canon R1 body. Most of them were hugely disappointed and opted to buy the Canon R5 Mark II, which seems to be a more suitable option compared to the Canon R1, the so-called flagship from Canon.
Now, information is coming out from various sources that the new technical advisory team is actively working to create a true competitor to the existing flagship cameras. The name being suggested right now is the Canon R1 X, which is set to be a higher-resolution monster.
They are testing multiple high-resolution sensors that could create a significant impact and a big difference between the existing flagship cameras and the upcoming Canon R1 X camera. According to insiders, they are considering up to 80 MP resolution with 8K videography capability. While it is still under development, you can expect a range of resolutions somewhere between 50 to 80 MP for the upcoming camera.
The development announcement of the camera is expected sometime in June or July 2025, which is the earliest we are expecting right now if everything goes as per schedule.
We will post an update as soon as we get any information related to the upcoming Canon cameras and lenses.
According to the latest information, Canon is planning to launch the Canon R7 Mark II camera.The sources mentioned “Canon R7 Mk II is about to enter the production pipeline”, that means if the rumor is true then we will have a Canon R7 Mark II camera on or before Feb 2025.
We do not have much information about the camera right now regarding its specs, but we do have a list of expectations that
So this is not the first time we have published this information. Just a while ago, on April 29, 2024, we announced the entire schedule of Canon’s latest mirrorless cameras. Among these, the Canon R7 and R10 in the APS-C category are the cameras waiting for an update. Technically, we now have some strong information related to the R7 Mark II camera’s arrival. Stay tuned, We will also bring you updates if we get any information related to the R7 Mark II camera or even the R10 Mark II, if possible.
Canon USA got a huge tax break from the Government of the USA, and this break was given to keep the staff employed. But despite getting a huge tax break from the government, they had a major layoff done by Canon USA of many employees, including the technical advisory team led by Rudi Winston, as well as many others whose names and exact numbers we don’t know. So now the question remains: what will happen next? Since they have done the layoff but also received the tax break, will they have to return the tax break of $7 million to the government?
We don’t know what’s going to happen, but the above information is collected based on several news published by NEWSDAY, which include the following headlines,
December 14, 2023 – Canon could close Melville headquarters if more tax breaks aren’t approved, executive says: [Source]
December 17. 2023 – Canon USA gets another $7 million tax break after threatening to close shop in Melville, NY: [Source]

one by one, each headline tells everything very clearly, So we are putting up all those press releases in serial order so you can also get a clear idea of what’s going on with Canon.
So, we have already published back in May 2024 that the Canon R6 Mark III is coming with a 24-megapixel stacked CMOS sensor, similar to the one found in the Canon R3 camera.
