Is the Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark III camera discontinued in 2026? The answer is no, but it’s really hard to find the top-of-the-line G7 X Mark III anywhere in the world right now. Whether you are in the United States or Japan, it’s really hard to find the G7 X camera in retail outlets or online stores. Yes, renewed and second-hand models are available at higher price points, but brand-new models are rarely seen in the market despite the crazy demand for the camera.
The issue reached its peak when Canon announced the Limited-Edition Graphite model of the Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark III, but, despite its April release date, the camera is already on “Notify Me” status. Even B&H Photo Video has clearly stated on the product page that it will be served to the first customers in the queue due to very high demand and limited supply.
In this article, we have tried to find out the exact reasons why the Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark III camera has been delayed and is not in stock, so the reasons…
Why Canon is failing to keep the camera in stock worldwide
(exact reasons based on official statements, retailer data, and production reports as of March 2026):
1. Explosive viral demand far exceeding production capacity —
Starting in 2019, compact camera models went mega-viral over Instagram and TikTok. Content creators and bloggers started preferring a compact camera that could record 4K videos in high quality, and guess what the best solution was at the time—and even now—the Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark III, with its image quality and overall performance.
Demand spiked globally (especially among Gen Z for its pocketable size, 4K video, and vlog mode), turning it into a “must-have” compact. Sales far outpaced Canon’s expectations for a 7-year-old camera.
2. Repeated component shortages and production suspensions
Suddenly, despite excessive demand, in March 2025, Canon Japan suspended new orders for the G7 X Mark III (and SX740 HS) due to parts shortages (likely the 1″ stacked CMOS sensor and DIGIC 8 processor, although they continue to fuel the production of new compact like Canon V10, which uses almost all the core specs as of G7X Mk III. [11 May 2023 — The PowerShot V10 V] So, if they can fuel up the production V10, then for sure G7X Mk III product continuation isn’t a major issue for Canon.
Although G7X Mk III Production resumed in September 2025, Canon explicitly stated they were only fulfilling existing backorders and would take “a long time for delivery” with no new orders accepted at that time.
3. Canon closed back-to-back 2–3 factories worldwide (reported by Petapixel [1][2] and thenewcamera.com)
Canon never scaled manufacturing for this old model, due to low demand for compact cameras and in the market, Canon closed back-to-back 2-3 Factories worldwide, Petapixel [1] [2] and we [thenewcamera.com].
-
- Petapixel coverage. In January 202,2 they reported Canon partially then fully closing its Zhuhai, China plant — Canon’s only mainland China camera factory, which primarily assembled small/compact digital cameras
- thenewcamera.com coverage: They reported the same Zhuhai closure (alongside Nikon/Sony moves) and earlier Canon sensor factory shutdown in Ayase, Japan (2020)
- More detailed research and analysis showed Canon had temporary shutdowns of 5 factories after 2020 worldwide due to low product demand specifically most of them were related to compact camera manufacturing units.
So, technically, even if V10 demand rose, [atlought its an Flop products and despite three + years of its announcement, it has received only 18 reviews, whereas 500 reviews we have both the colours of G7X Mk III camera – a total of 1000 + reviews, despite such a limited supply ] . The G7X Mark III (2019 model) still outsells/engages far more despite its age and past supply constraints. The V10’s much lower review volume after nearly 3 years reinforces low demand
Yes, Canon missed the Compact Camera Boom because it closed a major Chinese Factory in 2020 – 2022. Although back in Jan 2025 Canon chairman and CEO Fujio Mitarai says the company may reorganize its manufacturing efforts, potentially moving additional camera production outside Japan. Means as they have said they will be Outsourcing compact Camera Manufacturing to third-party manufacturers who can fulfill the demand of Canon compacts to the market while maintaining the lowest production cost possible, “We want to go fabless with the printers and lower-end digital cameras we manufacture in Asia,” Mitarai told Nikkei Asia in an interview,
However, even these measures appear insufficient at present. As of March 2026, none of the popular compact models — including the G7 X Mark III and the Canon PowerShot SX740 HS — are readily available in stock at authorised retailers worldwide. The industry is still waiting for a sustainable solution. This represents a clear opportunity for Canon to lead the global compact camera market, yet the company appears to be missing it.

Is Canon really planning something crazy?, but before that we have to discuss about the two unique retro camera models that have been introduced by Canon during the CP+ 2026, so and obviously they have created a lot of buzz out there and got a significant amount of media attention too although I was actually waiting for some new type of photo-type upcoming camera, but these two cameras were the center of attraction of the show.
It was a pair of quirky, waist-level-viewfinder prototypes that look like they time-traveled straight out of the 1960s — yet they’re 100% digital and built by Canon.
Officially called the “Analog Concept Camera,” these boxy retro compacts (or more accurately, palm-sized TLR-style concepts)
But the big question: Is Canon really serious about these two cameras? I’m thinking about the introduction of these two cameras into the consumer market. Let’s discuss further.
Both share the same core DNA: a fixed ~50mm f/1.8-equivalent lens, manual focus only, and — most importantly — a genuine optical waist-level viewfinder.
Two Designs, One Bold Idea
As you can see, Canon has displayed two working Retro prototypes side-by-side behind glass at their CP+ booth:
- Concept Model A (Retro Style) – Rugged, angular, vintage-inspired, which reminds me of Hasselblad or Rolleiflex. Think metal dials, textured grips, and that unmistakable classic charm.
- Concept Model B (Simple Box) – Sleeker, more modern, with clean lines and elegant pewter-colored controls. The kind of camera you could slip into a coat pocket and forget you’re carrying.
It’s all about putting focus on shooting experience as well as image quality, since such big bodies loaded with a 50mm F1.8 Eq Fixed MF lens for beautiful bokeh and portrait shoot, as well as a 1-inch CMOS sensor to keep the camera under budget
How Does It Actually Work? (The Clever Bit)
Forget traditional mirrorless tech; it has the same working principle as previous generations of DSLR and SLR cameras.
- Light enters the front lens.
- A primary flip-up mirror throws the image onto a full-size ground-glass focusing screen (just like classic film TLRs or DSLR cameras).
- You compose and focus by looking down; none of the sensors or display is active — you are watching reflected light from the mirror inside the camera
- When you pull the shutter lever (yes, a real mechanical lever does“clack”), a second mirror flips up, and the image is captured by a small Type 1 sensor photographing the focusing screen itself.
The result? Since a 50mm lens is attached ot the sensor of the camera, we are expecting better results like a pro portrait camera with natural bokeh, when captured perfectly – no EVF lag, no simulation. It genuinely feels like shooting film.
The Photographer’s Perspective
It’s really a very unique camera to experience with the reason of a 50mm high-quality lens and a decent output from this camera. So if you’re someone who already used a DSLR camera in the past or would love to know how these DSLR or SLR cameras work, then this prototype will be a safe and unforgettable experience for photographers. Those who would love to have their hands on traditional photography, specifically a kind of real-life retro camera.
 screen shot of survey shared via Webio Canon Is Listening — But Beware of Unofficial Surveys
Canon didn’t just put these prototypes on display and walk away. Even during the show, they were actively asking attendees to fill out detailed questionnaires and vote on which design they preferred. This indicates the company is clearly gauging real-world interest about there prototypes, and gathering various sets of information regarding ergonomics, aesthetics, price expectations, and shooting scenarios.
That said, a word of caution to the photography community:
Its look like a lot of people showed interest in the Canon Retro prototypes, and thats why a second phase of a silent survey in China has been started. According to Webio’s post, Canon is secretly doing a survey to collect information regarding public interest in retro camera bodies.
A viral social media post has been circulating with a link to a Chinese third-party survey platform (v.wjx.cn) claiming “Canon launched a small survey — please help!” That link is not official. It carries no Canon branding, no official disclaimers, and has not been mentioned by any reputable source or Canon’s own channels. Canon’s feedback efforts at CP+ were strictly on-site. If you want your voice heard, the safest route is waiting for any future official channels or Canon’s regular feedback forms.
Will These Retro Compacts Actually See the Light of Day?
Canon has made no promises — this is still very much a concept. Even if it gets approved for the production line, we won’t get it before 2027, or may it be delayed further beyond, one thing is clear: Canon is listening to photographers who want something different.

Canon is hinting at major upgrades in the upcoming compact camera segment. So, the compacts will not just be polished re-announcements carrying old technology inside. We will see some major changes inside the cameras.
Why are we saying this? In a recent interview by dpreview.com, Go Tokura, Executive Vice President and Head of the Imaging Group at Canon, revealed plans for their upcoming compact cameras. This may include major updates to the ultra-popular Canon PowerShot G7 X lineup, such as a highly advanced Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark IV in the near future, and obviously, a vlogging-focused camera. There is a strong probability of significant upgrades.
So, in this article, we are going to detail what Canon’s President and Head of the Imaging Group said at the CP+ 2026 event.
Key Highlights from Canon’s CP+ 2026 Compact Camera Tech Showcase
CP+ 2026, held in Yokohama, Japan, served as a platform for Canon to signal a revival in the compact camera segment.
“The current customers of compact cameras are not really our past customers. These are totally new customers,” said Go Tokura, Executive Vice President, Head of the Imaging Group and Chief Executive of Imaging Business Operations. “So it is going to be the role of the next camera we release that can offer new technologies or a new use case. That’s the new role of the next compact camera.”
This statement underscores Canon’s strategy to target new demographics with advanced technologies and innovative use cases, moving beyond traditional compact models.
Rumoured Canon Compact Cameras Arriving in 2026 or 2027
Based on leaks and industry predictions, Canon is poised to refresh its compact lineup. These are speculative but grounded in reliable rumours.
PowerShot G7 X Mark IV (Expected Late 2026): According to the latest rumours we have covered, the Canon G7X Mark III successor, the Canon G7X Mark IV, is expected to arrive in late 2026. And if we believe what Go Tojura said, then for sure, we are about to witness a massive change in the core specification of the upcoming camera. Initial rumours suggest that the upcoming camera. Rumours suggest a 2026 release with upgraded 4K video (possibly 60fps), improved low-light performance, AI autofocus, and a faster processor. It could build on the Mark III’s success by adding features such as improved battery life and enhanced stabilisation for vloggers.
PowerShot V10 Mark II (Expected 2026): Canon V10 was announced back in May 2023; an update is expected this year from Canon, the V10 Mark II with better video resolution, expanded connectivity (e.g., direct social media integration), and modular accessories. It’s part of Canon’s V-series expansion for vloggers.
PowerShot V3 or V100 (Rumoured 2026-2027): These could introduce APS-C sensors for superior image quality in a compact body, and here is the rumoured core specification, which surfaced a while ago here at thenewcamera.com
Canon V3 Rumoured core specification
-
- 1.4-inch, 22.4MP sensor.
- 20x optical zoom lens (approx. 24-480mm or 24-500mm, 35mm equivalent).
- Built-in electronic viewfinder (EVF).
- Photography-oriented design with a deep hand grip, robust build, and no side vents.

Why Canon Compact Cameras Are Making a Comeback in 2026
It looks like Canon is about to push the compact camera market to the next level. If you truly believe what Canon’s marketing head is saying at this moment, they are preparing to take compact camera technology to the next level.
After a long gap, the demand for compact cameras in the market has risen again, and many companies, including Canon, are benefiting from this trend. However, as we know, Canon had technically slowed down research and development of its older-generation G-series compact cameras and shifted more attention toward the V-series lineup.
Despite that, the demand for cameras like the Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark III and the Canon PowerShot SX740 HS is still at an all-time high. People are even paying double the MSRP to get a copy of these cameras.
As Go Tokura hinted at CP+ 2026, this isn’t just about refreshing old models; it’s about innovating for a whole new generation of users. We’re keeping a close eye on official announcements, so stay tuned to thenewcamera.com for the latest leaks, reviews, and hands-on insights on Canon’s upcoming compact cameras.

Canon is working on a wireless microphone; we now have the images of the microphone as well as the core details. Originally, the Mic and the transmitter were registered back in 2024; the code name of the wireless Mic is WM-E1-R. It is a compact Bluetooth device tailored for Canon EOS RF cameras. Typically, it has been developed for the expansion of Canon’s wireless microphone system for content creators, giving an excellent alternative option to the existing third-party wireless mic options available in the market. So let’s explore the set of features that are known, as well as the pricing that you may have to pay, and obviously,y the images.
What We Know About the Canon WM-E1-R Wireless Microphone
We now have the leaked image of the wireless mics. The leaked images show a sleek, black, oval-shaped device with the Canon logo and “WM-E1-R” labeling, alongside a square-shaped companion unit that is actually an advanced receiver. These align with FCC IDs AZD250 and AZD251, corresponding to models DS586233 (master unit) and DS586234 (slave unit). Filed by Canon Inc. in Japan, the certifications were granted on June 10, 2024. As we have mentioned earlier, the Receiver is fully compatible with the Canon Multifunctional hotshoe of RF system cameras.
Key highlights from the FCC documentation include:
- Device Type: Wireless Lavalier Microphone, suitable for audio-visual equipment, broadcast, and consumer use.
- Technology: Bluetooth with GFSK modulation for reliable, low-power wireless communication.
- Antenna: Integrated PCB pattern antenna for compact design.
- Power Source: Battery-powered, with transmission ceasing during USB charging to comply with regulations.
- SAR Compliance: Tested for Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) with values of 0.13 W/kg (AZD250) and 0.37 W/kg (AZD251), well below the 1.6 W/kg limit.
- Testing Standards: Passed FCC Part 15 Subpart C for emissions, bandwidth, output power, and more.
- Labelling: Due to the small size, the FCC ID is in the user manual and packaging, not on the device itself.
The overall design of the transmitter looks very similar to the Rode Wireless Mic design. And typically, the receiver, the WM-E1-R, is designed for the Canon Multi-Function Shoe of Canon EOS R cameras, but at the very same time, it also has a 3.5mm jack input port. In case you want to plug and play in a traditional way with other cameras, too, it remains compatible.
Features and Potential Use Cases for Canon Wireless Microphones
Based on the filings and leaked photos, the Canon WM-E1-R promises professional-grade audio in a portable form factor. Here’s what stands out:
- Wireless Freedom: Bluetooth LE ensures low latency and stable connections up to a reasonable range, perfect for filmmakers, podcasters, and YouTubers who need mobility.
- Compact Design: The microphone’s small size makes it discreet for lavalier use, clipping onto clothing without bulk.
- Compatibility: Tailored for Canon’s ecosystem, it could pair seamlessly with cameras like the EOS R5, R6, or R10, enhancing video audio quality over built-in mics.
- Battery Life and Charging: USB connectivity for charging, with smart power management to avoid interference.
- Industry Applications: Listed for consumer, broadcast, and commercial use, it’s versatile for everything from home videos to professional shoots.
For videographers as well as professional content creators, those who are typically looking for a native Canon integration, reducing setup time and improving reliability. For sure, the WM E1 R will work the best.
Why Hasn’t Canon Announced the WM-E1-R Yet?
Despite the FCC approval in mid-2024 and now in Q1 of 2026, it’s really interesting to see why Canon has remained silent on the WM-E1-R and delayed its announcement. Certifications like 3C (China) and FCC often precede launches by months, so an announcement could come in 2026. Canon’s current microphone lineup on their official site includes wired options like the DM-E1D and DM-E100, leaving a gap for wireless solutions.
The wireless mic of Canon will help to expand the ECO system of the Canon Mirrorless camera. With strong and reputable competitors like DJI, Hollyland and Rode already dominating the wireless mic market, Canon might be positioning the WM-E1-R as a premium, ecosystem-specific alternative. Although nowadays a lot of budget option has become available
Pricing and Availability Speculations
Take a look what we expect the priccing of the upcoming wireless mic should be
- DM-E100 retails around $160.
- The WM-E1-R could land between $200-$300,
depending on whether it’s sold as a kit with receiver and transmitter. Availability might align with Canon’s next camera announcements, potentially bundled with models like the EOS R series.
Stay tuned to TheNewCanera.com for updates. If you’re in the market for Canon gear, check out our reviews of the best Canon microphones and EOS cameras.
The leaked Canon WM-E1-R wireless microphone excites with its Bluetooth tech, compact build, and FCC-backed compliance. Though not yet announced, it fills a need for high-quality, wireless audio in Canon’s ecosystem. For photographers and videographers, this could elevate content creation without third-party hassles.

Canon R3 Mark II Rumors February 2026: Dual Native Resolution Sensor Tested at Milan Winter Olympics
Best Mirrorless Cameras Under $500 in 2026
By admin, on February 17th, 2026
Reports are buzzing that the Canon EOS R3 Mark II camera has popped up in testing at the Milan Winter Olympics. It’s not positioning itself as just a high-res version of the EOS R1—instead, it’s more of an experimental beast, packing the industry’s first dual native resolution back-illuminated stacked CMOS sensor as its big innovation.
These updates are coming from the Chinese social media handle Camera Beta. Now, according to this handle, they have seen or witnessed the presence of the Canon R3 Mark II camera during the Olympics, and in the page, they have also shared the core specifications of the camera.
Understanding the Dual Resolution Feature
One thing is really very confusing that the upcoming camera can capture 24MP images as well as 54MP images handheld, so he is confused about this feature and he has been concerned that it has a dual native resolution capability of the sensor, but why I personally think that Canon is doing their expertise in handheld higher resolution capturing capability, and with that they can push resolution up to 2X, means from 24MP they can jump to 54MP without putting your camera on a tripod or anything which is stable, you can do it handheld.
Analysis of Canon’s Handheld High-Resolution Technology: So instead of naming it as dual gain resolution or whatever the term they have pointed for it, it is better to say Canon has enhanced the handheld higher resolution shooting capability which can be doubled for the sensor resolution with the help of a new image processor. But this is the sort of analysis we are able to do with the available set of information what the source is claiming about the R3 Mark II camera.
Key Innovations in Sensor Technology: This new camera lets you switch between two native resolutions: 54 million pixels or 24 million pixels. That means you can crank out high-speed continuous shooting at 40 frames per second in the higher res mode, or bump it up to a blistering 90 frames per second in the lower one. It uses an upgraded Bayer array that smartly merges adjacent pixels when you’re in 24MP mode, giving about an 80% sensitivity boost over the original EOS R3. Throw in triple native ISO tech, and you’ve got killer high-ISO performance that stands out.
Advanced Autofocus System On the autofocus front, it’s got a four-pixel CMOS AF system with four photodiodes per pixel. That setup delivers dual cross-type autofocus across every single one of those 54 million pixels, handling phase detection in horizontal, vertical, and even diagonal directions for super-precise tracking.
Video Capabilities for Professionals: For video shooters, it’s a dream: in-camera recording of 9K at 60p or 6K at 120p in RAW format, all while keeping full-pixel autofocus locked in.
So for now, take a look at what they have said, and we have also organised the entire core specification of the camera, according to the information shared by Camera Beta itself.
Canon EOS R3 Mark II Specifications Breakdown
Based on the provided details, here’s a breakdown of the key specs extracted and organized for clarity. Note that this is derived from reports and rumors, so official confirmation from Canon would be needed for accuracy.

DJI Pocket 4 Video Leaked
Canon R10 Mark II Rumors: 2026 Release Date, Specs, and FCC Insights
By admin, on February 15th, 2026
One of the most important things that people want to know is when the Canon EOS R10 Mark II camera is actually coming. The question seems to be logical. Also, since the Canon EOS R10 is now as old as an R7 mirrorless camera, and the Canon EOS R7 was announced together on 24 May 2022.
But right now, we do have some strong rumours related to the Canon EOS R7 Mark II camera. The reason behind those rumours is a Canon FCC ID registration of a pro mirrorless camera, which seems to be highly identical to an APS-C flagship camera, considering the core specifications, the battery the camera is using and all that stuff.
So, the big question is actually when the R10 Mark II camera will arrive. Will it arrive before the R7 or after that? Let’s discuss it first.
Canon EOS R7 Mark II vs R10 Mark II: Which Comes First?
If you compare the two, then for sure, according to the recent FCC ID filing, the Canon R7 Mark II camera announcement looks more prominent. For now, no other FCC IDs have emerged till February 2026, so even if Canon registers a camera after March or April, the announcement is expected sometime in the second half of 2026.
During the DSLR time, the mid-range camera update cycle was approximately two years, and obviously, the flagship APS-C cameras were taking approximately four years of time. But right now, both the mid-range Canon EOS R10 and the Canon EOS R7 were announced approximately four years back. Due to uncertainty in the market and a bit lower demand for hybrid cameras, as people are putting more focus on video-oriented compact mirrorless solutions, as well as photographers preferring full-frame high-end hybrid cameras, in that context, it seems like Canon is about to update the Canon EOS R7 instead of the R10 for now.
FCC ID Analysis: No New Camera Filings Until February 2026
A key piece of evidence comes from FCC ID listings, which often foreshadow camera announcements. As of February 2026, Canon has no new “Digital Camera” registrations beyond the December 17, 2025, filing for AZD260 (model code DS126933 / HVIN DS126933). This filing is widely linked to the Canon EOS R7 Mark II, thanks to leaked certification documents from UL Verification Services.
- Recent FCC Entries:
- AZD260: Digital Camera (Dec 17, 2025) – Tied to the R7 Mark II.
- AZD30387-2: Wireless LAN Module (May 15, 2025) – For Wi-Fi/Bluetooth integration.
- AZD30400: Wireless LAN Module (Mar 13, 2025) – Similar module for host products.
The absence of fresh camera-specific FCC IDs suggests that if Canon registers a new one in early 2026 (e.g., February or March), the Canon EOS R10 Mark II announcement wouldn’t hit until Q4 2026 or later. FCC certifications typically require 3-6 months of lead time for testing and disclosure
Expected Specs for Canon EOS R10 Mark II
Since there has been a lot of delay in the mid-range level series camera, Canon EOS R10, we are now expecting a bigger jump in the core specifications of the upcoming camera. While official details are under wraps, Canon EOS R10 Mark II specs rumours point to evolutionary upgrades rather than revolutionary changes.
Let’s discuss what we are expecting from Canon R10 Mark II
- Sensor: Expected to reuse the 32.5MP APS-C sensor from the original R7, ensuring sharp images without the premium price tag.
- Performance: Faster continuous shooting mechanical up to 15 fps, improved autofocus, and enhanced video capabilities, but no in-body image stabilisation (IBIS) or weather sealing to keep it compact and budget-friendly.
- Design: Retains the single card slot and lightweight body of the R10, ideal for entry-level users upgrading from DSLRs.
- Other Features: Better battery life, 4K video improvements, and seamless integration with Canon’s RF-S lenses.
- That’s what we are least expecting from R10 Mark II, since the competitors like A6700 and ZV-E10 II now using 26 MP APS-C BSI CMOS sensor, it seems to be quite an bit logical update from the existing 24 MP sensor.
Why the Delay? Canon’s 2026 Strategy Explained
It all depends upon the Canon marketing team. It was quite obvious that the entry-level models, the Canon EOS R50 and the Canon EOS R100, were taking over the market (July 2025) even in the USA. We have reported several times that the R50 is leading the market, so without a doubt, the R10 camera sales are not at that point. It is better to say the market response wasn’t as strong, and that’s why they have intentionally delayed the updates.
If a series becomes more popular, they are going to add more variants and obviously schedule updates to it. For example, the R50 series now has the Canon EOS R50V, and possibly this year or next year, we will have the R50 Mark II. But again, it all depends on market popularity and sales. If a model doesn’t perform as much as expected, then it gets delayed.
Other than that, that is the only reason why a camera maker decides to delay or discontinue a model.

If you are interested in getting the Canon G7X Mark III, the best thing is to join the waiting list. Once it comes in stock, you will be notified and grab it asap.
The Special 30th Anniversary Graphite Edition
Due to its very high popularity, Canon decided to announce this limited edition. It features a sleek graphite body with the thirty-year anniversary logo printed on it for that special feel.
It keeps the same great specs since Canon doesn’t want to alter the core specs of its highly popular compact. They want to keep it as it is.
Pricing is set around $1299, and it’ll become available to the public starting late April 26. Preorders are already going fast!

If crisp footage, pocket-sized build, and live-stream flex matter to you – yes, mark your calendar. Otherwise, the regular G7X still floats around second-hand at sane prices… but good luck finding one.
