According to one of the most credible sources the camera insider, the Canon R5 Mark II camera has now entered the manufacturing line. This indicates that the test phase of the prototype is over, and Canon is now producing as many units of the R5 Mark II camera as possible for the announcement in February 2024. Once the camera is announced, we expect its shipping will start in March 2024 (the last week of March).
According to the latest rumors coming from the rumor mill, the Canon R5 Mark 2 camera may feature a Quad Pixel CMOS sensor. No Further information is available about the upcoming model.
The big question is: Will Canon use the Quad Pixel CMOS autofocus sensor for its upcoming Canon R5 Mark 2 camera, or will Canon save the Quad Pixel CMOS autofocus sensor technology for their Canon R1 camera?
Canon is about to announce a brand new camera in February of 2024. As the announcement date comes closer, we will have a clearer set of information related to the upcoming camera.
According to the latest news we have from the rumor mill, Canon’s upcoming cameras, which include the flagship mirrorless Canon R1 and the Canon R5 Mark 2, will not use the Global Shutter sensor. The Global Shutter sensor is still far from being included in Canon bodies; it’s not coming soon inside them as per the latest setup information.
And as we all know, even Sony’s A9 Mark III camera is struggling with low-light performance issues. We don’t think Canon will take that risk with their flagship camera body or even the R5 Mark 2 camera.
According to a well-known YouTube content creator “Jan Wegener” who also predicted the arrival of the many Canon and third-party camera makers well before their announcement, and recently also very clearly hinted that the Canon 200 to 800mm lens is coming prior to any website or rumor mill.
Now in his latest vlogs, he very clearly said that the Canon R5 Mark 2 camera will arrive in the first quarter of 2024 and the Canon flagship mirrorless camera, the EOS R1, will arrive in the 4th quarter of 2024.
Not only that, he also confirmed that there will be several Canon PRO photographers who will be using the Canon EOS R1 camera during the Olympics, but for testing purposes only. Although we can expect some sort of development announcement at the beginning of the year, the final set of announcements, as told by him, is about to happen at the end of 2024.
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.
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.
