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.

We have asked AI to predict the future sales report based on our existing reports for 2021-22, 22-23 and 2023-24[FY] of the global camera manufacturer market share, take a look at the results we have
We have added Three Years of sales Data to the report, and then this report has been generated
Creating a prediction report for the next 10 years based on the provided market share data from 2021 to 2023 involves identifying trends in the market shares of each company and projecting these trends forward. Here’s a simplified approach to predict the market shares:
- Identify the trend for each company: Calculate the average annual change in market share for each company based on the provided data.
- Project the trend forward: Apply the average annual change to project the market shares for the next 10 years.
Let’s start by calculating the average annual change for each company from 2021 to 2023:
Calculation of Annual Change
Canon:
- 2021 to 2022: 46.5% – 47.9% = -1.4%
- 2022 to 2023: 41.2% – 46.5% = -5.3%
- Average annual change: (-1.4% + -5.3%) / 2 = -3.35%
Sony:
- 2021 to 2022: 26.1% – 22.1% = +4.0%
- 2022 to 2023: 32.1% – 26.1% = +6.0%
- Average annual change: (+4.0% + +6.0%) / 2 = +5.0%
Nikon:
- 2021 to 2022: 11.7% – 13.7% = -2.0%
- 2022 to 2023: 13.2% – 11.7% = +1.5%
- Average annual change: (-2.0% + +1.5%) / 2 = -0.25%
Fuji:
- 2021 to 2022: 5.8% – 5.6% = +0.2%
- 2022 to 2023: 8.1% – 5.8% = +2.3%
- Average annual change: (+0.2% + +2.3%) / 2 = +1.25%
Panasonic:
- 2021 to 2022: 4.3% – 4.4% = -0.1%
- 2022 to 2023: 4.5% – 4.3% = +0.2%
- Average annual change: (-0.1% + +0.2%) / 2 = +0.05%
Others:
- 2021 to 2022: 5.6% – 5.5% = +0.1%
- 2022 to 2023: 5.2% – 5.6% = -0.4%
- Average annual change: (+0.1% + -0.4%) / 2 = -0.15%
Projections for 2024 to 2033
Following this method, we can project the market shares for the next 10 years. Here is the complete projection:

Final Observations | Conclusion and VERDICT
- If the observed trends continue, Canon’s market share will significantly decrease, reaching Less than 10% by 2033.
PS: even if we use the past three years of the Global sales report, it doesn’t seem Canon is doing any good.
- Sony’s market share will see a substantial increase, reaching over 80% by 2034.
- Nikon, Fuji and Panasonic will continue to grow steadily
Note that these predictions are based on a linear trend and real-world factors of the 202-2023 and 2023-2024 global sales report, . Changes in technology, market dynamics, new entrants, and other external factors could influence these trends.
TNC exclusive: Edititors space
This report should not be taken seriously in any context since these are analyses done by AI, the artificial intelligence. At the same time, the details of these analyses are generated based on the past two years of global sales reports, which may fluctuate based on the offers from camera makers to their consumers. For example, if Canon opens their lens mount, we may see a significant increase in the global sales share percentage of Canon cameras as well as their lenses. Similarly, if any other brand like Nikon or Sony introduces a new line of cinema cameras or dedicated cameras for content creators, they may raise their own market share. Therefore, these predictions are not always accurate when based on limited data, especially when there are many factors involved. Consider this report just as a reference.

We have the Canon R1 flagship camera officially arrived. The camera features a 24-megapixel stacked CMOS sensor and a maximum continuous shooting speed of 40 frames per second. We can see some major upgrades from the Canon R3 camera, but more or less, it doesn’t directly compete against the Nikon Z9 and the Alpha A1.
Instead of naming this camera R1, it’s better to name it Canon R3 Mark II considering the level of updates and the set of specifications we are getting. It’s very similar to the existing R3 camera with a significant upgrade loaded over it.
Overall, it’s an excellent camera for photojournalists as well as sports shooters. But for wildlife photographers, the R5 Mark II is more recommended, as well as for professional wedding, portrait, and fashion photographers, and even for landscape and street style shooters. The R1 camera approach remains limited to photojournalists as well as sports shooters.
