According to the latest rumors surfaced over the web, the Sony A7C Mark II camera will arrive this year. This isn’t the first time we are gotten rumors about the Sony A7C II camera. Check our post published almost a year ago
Upcoming Sony Cameras as per latest rumors
High-end APS-C mirrorless camera
Sony a9 III
Video camera with E-mount
Unknown E-mount camera
Back on November 2022, we published a list of upcoming Sony cameras based on Sony’s scheduled announcement timeline and we have covered most of the cameras posted here with the possible set of upgradable core specs
These are the set of expected core specs in upcoming Sony cameras, lets’s have a look.
Sony A9 III was scheduled to arrive in Q3 of 2021, but the camera was delayed due to a chip shortage. Even in 2022, the A9 III was not able to make its space on Sony’s list. And now its announcement is overdue, and we are expecting that Sony A9 III camera is expected to arrive in Q2/Q3 of 2023.
Youngnuo officially announced an 85mm lens for Canon RF Mount. The lens features STM AF motor and the lens also does AF very well. Now we all very well know Canon RF Mount is locked and Canon recently ditched Viltrox 85mm F1.8 AF Lens by sending some goof msgs to the Lens makers.
So, now we can have two types of situations here
Situation #1: Canon and viltrox are now in collaboration with each other, youngnuo paid the license fee. And now more youngnuo lenses for RF Mount are on they way.
Situation #2 : Youngnuo doesn’t care about Canon’s policy.
Youngnuo Smart Move can be followed by the Viltrox, provided nothing happens to it
In both of the situations we have discussed the second one is true, Youngnuo doesn’t care about Canon rules and regulations for RF Mount. At the same time to save themselves legally they are not using a single Canon word in their Lens announcement or packaging
compatible with other than Sony E / Leica L / Nikon Z”. It seems that sales in China have started at 2,599 yuan ($380).
As you can see clearly youngnuo is avoiding Canon’s name,and yes if they are not using it Canon has nothing much to do legally. But, yes they can block Lenses AF/AE operations via firmware updates in the future.

According to the latest rumors coming out from the rumor mill, the Canon R5 Mark II camera is delayed and will not arrive in 2023. According to a Canon rumor source, Canon is planning for a massive firmware upgrade of Canon EOS R5 and in the firmware update we will see
Canon R5 Upcoming Firmware update
Lens breathing correction
Pre-shooting buffer
Removal of 30 minutes record limit
Vehicle tracking AF mode (bikes, trains & planes)
Additional tracking for more animals
And now the source of the rumor mill suggests since we are getting such a massive update in the Canon EOS R5, the Canon EOS R5 Mark II may get delayed till 2024 and is expected to arrive alongside the Canon EOS R1 camera in 2024.
This is the set of info we are getting from the rumor mill, but the story continues and we will try to find out the sources
Let’s dig up the source of the rumor
The Canon R5 Mark II camera is being delayed first told by Jan Wegener, according to his trusted sources and industry people he knows said that no Canon R5 mark II from Canon is coming in 2023, instead of that Canon will be focusing on realizing Telephoto zoom lenses for RF Mount. This makes more sense since nowadays bird/wildlife photographers are more preferring Sony system cameras and lenses instead of Canons due to their limited tele-zoom offerings.
But, why he is more reliable than CanonRumor itself, take a look at this video below
Blast from the past: Jan Wegener Canon R6 Mark II Spot on Prediction
We will post an update soon as we get any new set of information
TNC Take, Actually, I was expecting Canon R5 Mark II camera official announcement in Nov 2023 and before that, we were expecting its development announcement Aug-Sep 2023. But, it looks like we will have only have Nikon Z8 this year and Canon is out of the High MP Mirrorless race (at least for 2023)
The big question is when Canon will open its RF Mount like Sony, Nikon, and Fuji. Many people are still waiting OR many of them buy different cameras since RF Mount has few lenses.
Phototrend website asked the same question, Canon said
It is true that we are approached by many third-party manufacturers. We hear their demands. However, we have no direction or policy as such on this subject.
Naturally, I cannot share more details with you, but what I can say is that if this aligns with our strategy, we will take the necessary action on a case-by-case basis. I can’t tell you more.
But, the good news is Canon allowed the first third-party lens maker to have contact with its RF Lens mount. Cosina the Voigtlander 50mm f/1 is the first “third-party” lens to be able to communicate with the body via the RF mount.
However, there is no clarity. Canon still wants to keep everything under the curtains and as they said “we have no direction or policy as such on this subject” which also indicates a lack of transparency and no clear set of rules for third-party lens makers.
For, sure if we consider all the facts here NO third-party AF lenses for RF Mount coming anytime soon, do share your opinion about this.
According to rumors that surfaced over the web, Fuji may announce a model below Fuji X-T5 with the same 40MP APS-C X-Trans CMOS 5 HR BSI Sensor. The expected announcement date of the camera is one or before June (Asian source).
We published a set of the expected core specification of the Fuji X-S20 camera a while ago, and in that we were expecting fuji will again use the Fuji 26MP sensor in the X-S20 body to protect the sales of the X-T5 and other high-end models. But, if this information is accurate then Fuji will certainly dominate the APS-C segment once again despite the presence of the Canon R10 or Canon R7.
According to the latest rumors that surfaced over the web, The camera will have significant updates in the video core specs, including 4k 60fps video capability and a Sensor-Shift Image Stabilization system, with an updated interface.
Update 25 June 2023 – Sony ZV-E10
Based on the latest trend, the Peak-time selling period of the Sony ZV-E10 camera isn’t over yet. It is so popular in the market right now in Japan that it covers more than 48% of Sony’s total Alpha camera sales, according to the latest report.
Until and unless the peak period of the Sony ZV-E10 camera is over, Sony will not put out a new model to replace the ZV-E10, which is already being sold in very large quantities and is one of the most popular cameras in the market.
Now, the expected time frame for the arrival of the ZV-E10 Mark II camera successor is somewhere around Q1-Q2 of 2024
Canon R8 camera announced the camera features a 24MP full frame DPAF sensor, the same sensor we have seen in the Canon R6 Mark II camera. The Image processor is also the same, but the only thing that isn’t the same is the absence of IBIS. The Canon R8 features 4897 AF Points and 1053 AF Zones in the sensor. So, you get approx 100% coverage from your camera. According to Canon, the Canon R8 camera is loaded with more machine learning in its AF algorithms and inherits some of the technology from its flagship EOS R3 (but not the R3’s eye-controlled AF system). This should result in in super fast Autofocus Tracking performance.
Same as of the Canon R6 II, the Canon R8 also features enhanced tracking modes that are not only limited to ‘people’ and ‘animals, now you can also track a vehicle, cars, motorcycles, aircraft (including helicopters), and trains. Animal tracking also supports horses and zebras. So, the AF system of the camera is the best in its class. It’s capable of burst rates up to 40fps with the electronic shutter, though the camera drops to 12-bit readout to achieve this. Now, let’s have a look at the video core specification
The Canon R8 camera is capable to record UHD 4K/60p video via full sensor readout– no crop. It’s also possible to capture 4K/60p from an APS-C crop of the sensor. According to Canon, the Canon R8 uses almost the same heat sink mechanism as the Canon R6 mark II camera, you can record 4k 60fps videos up to 40 minutes without any issue. There are no time restrictions when shooting at slower frame rates like 4K/30p or 4K/24p. At Full HD video mode you can shoot up to 180 FPS.

Canon Unveils the Revolutionary R8 Camera: A New Era in Photography
MELVILLE, NY, February 7, 2023 – Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging solutions, announced today the launch of the new EOS R50 camera body, ideal for entry level users, and the EOS R8, an extremely compact, full-frame camera aimed at advanced amateur photo and video enthusiasts looking for budget-friendly options that don’t sacrifice performance. Additionally, two new RF-Mount lenses are being introduced to the ever-growing R-mount lens lineup.
EOS R50
Compact, lightweight and ideal for those looking to step up their video quality, the EOS R50 provides an impressive movie-shooting experience thanks to the APS-C sensor, with 4K video, uncropped 4K capture (at all frame rates), and outstanding Dual Pixel CMOS AF technology. With the addition of whole area tracking, subject detection, and movie-prerecording, difficult photo and movie opportunities can be easier to capture with a 24.2-million-pixel, APS-C sized image sensor. In addition, the EOS R50 is equipped with an eye-level electronic viewfinder to help achieve shot steadiness and ease viewing in bright sunlight conditions. A great camera for those who are looking to lean into interchangeable lenses, the EOS R50 camera can capture travel adventures, family portraits, sports, wildlife and even help a small business with marketing imagery. For those who are budding content creators, the EOS R50 will be available later in 2023 as part of a Content Creator Kit – packaged with a microphone, lens and grip. Overall, the EOS R50 is truly a jack of all content creation trades.
“The first time I picked up the EOS R50, I noticed how light it was. When I saw the footage, I wondered how the quality can be so good when it’s this lightweight in my hand. My mind was blown!”Bianca Matisse Taylor –Content creator and blogger
EOS R8
The EOS R8 — affordable and functional — is a full-frame mirrorless camera aimed at the up-and-coming video or photo enthusiast. This camera comes with class-leading autofocus while still extremely capable for everyday and general photography use. Equipped with a 24.2-megapixel CMOS image sensor and DIGIC X image processor, the EOS R8 is optimal for full-frame RF lenses — allowing enhanced wide-angle field of views when compared to APS-C sensor cameras. Extremely lightweight and compact, the EOS R8 shoots up to 6-fps with 1st-curtain Electronic shutter, and up to 40-fps with full electronic. For users who’ve already explored interchangeable lens cameras but haven’t yet broken into mirrorless, the EOS R8 should be the camera that takes them over the threshold to capture events, weddings, still life, travel and pets.
“My work is a lot about movement and not missing a beat with the fast shutter on the EOS R8 is so important to me as an artist.” Jasper Soloff – Photographer and Director

Alongside the camera bodies, Canon will release two new lenses. The RF-S lens line, optimized for the smaller APS-C sensor size, expands with the Canon RF-S55-210mm F5-7.1 IS STM lens. This is a telephoto zoom, giving coverage equivalent to an 88–336mm lens on a full-frame camera. The lens opens the door to telephoto photography and videography, with 4.5 stops optical image stabilization, and close-focusing that can fill the frame with a subject roughly 2×3 inches in size (at its 210mm zoom setting, and minimum focus distance). And it does all this in an incredibly lightweight and compact package.
The Canon RF24-50mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM is a new, compact standard zoom lens for full-frame EOS R-series cameras. Ranging from true wide-angle to traditional “standard lens” coverage at 50mm, the lens is a travel friendly design with an extremely compact exterior. The RF24-50mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM lens is just over 2 inches long when fully retracted, and under 3.5 inches when extended — weighing less than half a pound. Optical Image Stabilization, with 4.5 stops of shake-correction, further enhances its appeal for video and still-image shooting. It’s also useable on an APS-C sensor Canon camera, where the lens’ effective coverage is equivalent to what a 38–80mm would deliver on a full-frame camera.
