We have new Sirui S35 Cinema lenses of 24 mm, 35 mm, and 55 mm focal length for Canon RF mount, Sony E-mount, and even for Micro Four Thirds mount. So finally, we have a S35 / APS-C cinema lens made for RF mount party lens maker. All these lenses are fully manual and don’t exhibit any electrical contact.
Canon is rumored to announce the Canon R5 Mark II in 2024 and the Canon R5C Mark II camera will arrive sometime in 2025, according to the source of the rumor mill. No details about the specification of the upcoming camera available right now.
Now, if we look at the past, the Canon R5 was announced back in July 2020 and the Canon R5C camera was announced in 2022. So, we do have a good gap between these two cameras and the rumor mill is expecting a similar kind of gap between the announcement of the Canon R5 Mark II and the Canon R5C Mark II.
But at the same time, we have to understand one thing very clearly: the requirement for the Canon R5C camera arose because the Canon R5 was not able to deliver the promised specifications to cinematographers, and due to excessive overheating, Canon announced a separate line of R5C series cameras.
If we look at all the factors, then the R5C was needed at that moment because the original Canon R5 was not able to handle 8K video files properly due to excessive internal overheating.
If Canon makes a perfect Canon R5 Mark II camera with a proper heat sink unit that doesn’t allow the camera to overheat even after extensive use, then there is actually no need for a separate series like an R5C.
On the design part, we would require two extra things: one is an extra port for time code and the other is a full-size HDMI.
According to the latest information from a new source, the upcoming Canon R5 Mark II camera uses a 60-megapixel sensor. With internal raw recording, it can capture 8k videos of up to 60 frames per second.
Please take a look at the summary of the latest rumors we have related to the Canon EOS R5 Mark II
Canon R5 Mark II camera’s early prototypes were said to use 60MP DPAF Sensor
Internal 8K/60p video recording
8K/180p via HDMI
Advance Heatsink Unit
Introduction AI AF (not very clear what it does mean, since Canon is already using dedicated AI AF algorithms in advanced AF tracking, maybe they introduce more advance for of AI inside the upcoming Canon cameras with a dedicated hardware AI chip, just like we have in Sony A7R 5.)
Announcement in Q1 of 2023
The 60-megapixel sensor rumor is something new that we have seen. Earlier, it was said that the camera may have a 45 to 50-megapixel sensor. We will post more updates as soon as more information become available to us
According to the latest rumors from the rumor mill, the Canon R1 will have a 7 million pixel electronic viewfinder with a 120 Hz refresh rate. More details about the specification are below.
Right now, the set of information provided by the rumor mill is unconfirmed and coming from a new source, possibly.
We do have confirmations that the upcoming Canon R1 camera will have enhanced eye or iris tracking capability (Confirmed: Canon R1 Has Canon R3 Eye Control AF System and more… published on June 2023). Currently, the Canon R3 camera uses a 5.76 million pixel electronic viewfinder with 120 frames per second refresh rate.
If we talk about the industry’s best electronic viewfinder in cameras, then we have the flagship Sony A7R5 camera with a 9.44 million pixel electronic viewfinder and 120 frames per second refresh rate.
We have to think very clearly that Canon R1’s electronic viewfinder technical specs are not as easy as that of the Sony A7R5 since Canon has to integrate the eye-tracking capability to enable the Eye AF system, just like we have in the Canon R3 camera. It’s fascinating to see how much upscaling in resolution Canon can do in their upcoming Canon R1 camera’s electronic viewfinder while enhancing the 3D Eye AF.
According to the latest rumors from the ordinary filmmaker youtube channel, the Canon R5 Mark II camera is already in the hands of selected photographers and is expected to arrive in Q4 of 2023. So, the Canon R5 Mark II camera will be announced before the Canon R1 flagship camera, which is scheduled to come before the Olympics of 2024.
So, finally, Canon has discontinued its G1X Mark 3 camera. What can we expect next from Canon? Will they release a new G1X Mark 4 camera or, by looking at the current trend, will they release a new V series camera for their consumer base? Let’s hope for the best

The G1X Mark III camera was announced back in 2017. It used a 24 DPAF sensor of Canon 200D Mark II and Canon M50 II and Digic 8 image processor. Compared to the Mark 2 camera, which used a 1.5-inch sensor, the Mark 3 used an APS-C sensor. Despite this fact, the size of the Mark 3 was smaller than the Mark 2.
Canon’s Next Move: G1X Mark 4 or V Series?
Now again, we have high hopes after the discontinuation of the G1 X Mark 3 camera. The production lines are clear and the stockpiles are almost clear, so we expect a camera’s arrival under the V series. So, the big question next camera from Canon coming under the V range is APS-C Compact or a Mirrorless camera. Let’s hope for the best and see what arrives next.
According to the latest rumors surfacing on the web, Canon is about to expand its V series of Vlogging cameras. Right now we have only the Canon V10 in front of us, but in the near future, we will have a Canon V100 camera dedicated to content creators. It will compete against Sony’s ultra-popular ZV-E10 content creator compact APS-C mirrorless camera. Based on initial hands-on reports, the camera is expected to arrive at the end of 2023 or at the beginning of 2024.
Take a look at the rumored specifications of the upcoming Canon V100 camera.
