We can now confirm that no Canon M50 Mark III camera is coming soon, and the biggest reason is that Canon has ended the EF-M mount. It’s not a rumor anymore, it’s confirmed news coming out from a Japanese website.
Canon has finally ended the EF-M mount mirrorless cameras. It was expected from the announcement of the Canon R10 that Canon will soon end the EF-M mount, since a camera maker never maintains two different sets of mounts for a single sensor size, either for APS-C or for full frame.
We told you the same back in December 2022, Canon will soon end their EF-M Mount-based cameras, kindly check this article
The Canon M50 Mark II has suddenly disappeared from Canon’s lineup. Although the EOS M item remains, there are no applicable models. The possibility of a Canon M50 Mark III appearing is close to zero, so it seems safe to call it the end of the EOS M series. At the same time, all compatible EF-M lenses also have a “low stock” mark. Camera specialty stores are still accepting orders, but production of the lenses may have already been completed.
Looking at the series of events, it’s obvious that no more cameras are coming under EF-M mount from Canon and no further updates may be given to those cameras. Being number one in the camera market, Canon must openly communicate these things to its consumer base before ending a system lineup because many have already invested in EF-M mount lenses. Now those lenses are of no use since EF-M lenses are not compatible with the recently announced RF mount-based cameras
Canon recently patented a neckband-style camera to capture video. The concept is truly unique and it will assist content creators in producing videos without exerting too much effort in holding their camera and creating content.
According to the patent document, the camera also has a built-in light. As we all know, Canon is introducing very uniquely designed V series vlogging cameras, so there is a high probability that we will see the neckband-style camera under the V series within the next one or two years
Canon RF-S 10-18mm Finally, we have the leaked images of the soon-to-be-announced RF 10 to 18mm f/4.5 to 6.3 IS STM lens. The lens is about to arrive very soon and is meant for content creators and vloggers since it’s available at an affordable cost. It will be a perfect addition for cameras like Canon R50, R100, or R10. If you need premium quality glass in the same focal length range and do not have any issues related to budget, then we do have lenses like Canon RF 10-20mm F4L IS STM
Almost confirmed, the Canon R1 camera is coming in Q1 of 2024. We have had some rumors in the past that the Canon R1 is coming before the Olympics. Now, if you look at the recent set of rumors in the rumor mills and other websites, they are saying that the Canon R5 Mark II camera is coming before the Olympics, maybe in January and February of 2024. So, we can safely assume that the Canon R1 camera will arrive in the first quarter of 2024 and not the Canon R5 Mark II if this shared information is correct.
The Canon R1’s arrival also raises questions about the arrival of the R5 Mark II camera in the first quarter of 2024. So, there is a very high probability that just like Nikon did when they first announced the Nikon Z9 camera and after a gap announced the Z8 camera with almost 90% of the same core specifications that we have seen in the Nikon Z9. Similarly, Canon will first announce their flagship R1 mirrorless camera and after that, once the PEAK SALES period of Canon R1 is over, we will have Canon R5 Mark II with almost 80-90% the same configuration we have seen in the R1 at an affordable price point

According to the latest rumors, the Canon R5 Mark II camera to arrive in February of 2024. The reason is quite simple. Canon has a habit of releasing its flagship / Pro Cameras just prior to the Olympic games. We have seen this pattern in the past as well.
So, in 2024, the Olympics are set to start in July. Therefore, there is a high probability that Canon will release the EOS R5 Mark II camera.
At the same time, we have heard rumors about the Canon EOS R1 flagship camera for the past year. If these rumors are true, then the timelines for the Canon EOS R5 Mark II camera and the Canon EOS R1 are pretty close to each other and both are expected to arrive before the 2024 Olympics.
So, we have to wait for further confirmation. But with the set of all the information we have, one thing is for sure: either the Canon R5 Mark II or the Canon EOS R1 will arrive before the Olympics of 2024.
