CanonRumors now updated the rumor and is confident the camera will be named “R5” (and not “RS” as rumored by the same site before):

• Named the Canon EOS R5
• 45mp full-frame CMOS sensor
• IBIS
  • 5 stops with IBIS alone
  • 7-8 stops of correction when used with in-lens stabilization
• 12fps mechanical, 20fps electronic
• Scroll wheel added to the back
• No touch bar
• Liveview/Movie toggle like previous EOS DSLRs
• Larger capacity battery, but looks like the LP-E6
• 8K @ 30fps RAW
• 4K @ 120fps
• 4K @ 60fps
• Built-in 5GHz WiFi
• New battery, but the same shape and compatibility as the EOS 5D Mark IV
• Announcement ahead of CP+ next month
• Launching in July 2020 (I’m assuming this means ship date)

I still share what I heard that this camera dos not record 8K video and does not record 4k120fps. So this means we now have two options: Either one of us is wrong or maybe this 830fps and 4k120fps means something else…for example this will not work in normal FF mode but somehow in a very crippled supercrop mode or low quality mode. Or maybe something a la Panasonic 6k burst mode. Which would explain why my source said it has no 8k video!

On February 26 Fuji will launch the new X-T4. And the specs rumored by Fujirumors make it clear that Fuji is definitely without real competition in the APS-C world. Sony, Canon and Nikon aren’t serious empowering their APS-C line.

Now I wonder what would have happened if Fuji would have made a FF system camera instead of the GF “small” medium format system…that was a missed chance?

Olympus roadmap with 12-45mm f/4.0 lens

Here are a couple of new rumors:

Sigma will launch a new 70-200mm f/2.8 in E and L mount sometimes in early 2020
Olympus is rumored to launch the new 12-45mm f/4.0 lens with the new E-M1III in mid February
Fuji will soon launch the new Instax Mini 11

CR posted these rumored Canon RS specs:

• 45mp (One source said 40mp)
• IBIS
  • 5 stops with IBIS alone
  • 7-8 stops of correction when used with in-lens stabilization
• 14fps / 20fps (One source said 12fps / 20fps)
• Scroll wheel added to the back
• No touchbar
• Liveview/Movie toggle like previous EOS DSLRs
• Larger capacity battery, but looks like the LP-E6
• 8K @ 30fps RAW
• 4K @ 120fps
• 4K @ 60fps
• The info I was given about a crop was confusing
• Announcement ahead of CP+ next month

I asked to my long time Canon sources and they said those specs are nearly completely wrong. They cannot tell me the real specs because they don’t want to get busted. All they can say is that it’s simply off :(

IMPORTANT UPDATE: We now know that my sources got the EOS-R6 info while CR reported about the R5 specs. So indeed my sources were correct reporting about a lower reoslution camera with no 8K…but they didn’t knwo there were actually TWO cameras :)

Oh dear frustrated Sony folks. If you were hoping this was a rumor about the A7sII successor well hold your breath :)

All we got so far is some rumors about lenses that might be announced the upcoming months:

– 300mm f/2.8 GM
– Fast wide angle GM

Sony has registered a new camera code in Asia but again, this isn’t going to be an A7sIII for sure as the 2.4Ghz Wifi specs suggest this might be a new RX or entry level E-mount camera. My bet is on the RX10V.

So when are we going to get the A7sIII? I did cut the belly of my cat and used the intestine to read the future: It clear said that you should have already bought the SH1 instead of waiting like dumbasses :)

Fujirumors leaked this X100V image. The camera will be announced on February 4 during the Fuji X summit event in Tokyo.

The X100V is coming with 2 way tilt screen and a slightly improved 23mm f/2 lens design.

Press text:

The X-T200 features a high-speed APS-C 24.2 Megapixel CMOS sensor which uses copper wiring for better performance, and an intuitive user interface that provides professional quality with the ease and familiarity of a smartphone. Able to process data 3.5 times faster than the X-T100, rolling shutter is also reduced. AF performance in X-T200 is also dramatically enhanced through the use of phase detection autofocus pixels across the sensor.

The use of on-sensor phase detection pixels across the sensor and an improved AF algorithm means focus can be achieved quickly and in a variety of conditions. The updated Face/ Eye Detection AF makes focusing on individuals or groups of people quickly and easily. This is even possible when the camera’s LCD monitor is flipped out and you want to take a selfie. Automated functions, like Main Subject Recognition, allow the camera to be set to recognise and track a main subject within the frame. Combined with a burst mode of 8fps, it’s earier to capture those important moments.

The new Electronic Stabilization and HDR Video modes, along with its basic internal editing functions, helps X-T200 do more than just produce beautiful 4K Video, it ensures that videos are stable, crisp, and properly trimmed so they can be easily shared with family and friends. A gyro sensor sits at the heart of the new Electronic Stabilization Mode and assists in reducing the effects of camera shake when recording video footage. The new HDR Video function makes recording footage in high contrast situations much easier and more practical, while its in-camera video editing functions allow for clips to be trimmed and right-sized before they are shared. This means creators can share the perfect section of a super-slow motion clip or the best part of their 4K footage right from the camera to their smartphone without ever needing to open a computer.

X-T200 is equipped with a vari-angle 3.5-inch, 16:9 Aspect Ratio widescreen LCD touch-screen that can be opened and closed between 0 to 180 degrees and rotated between -90 to +180 degrees. It also provides an intuitive and responsive control over the camera’s features and functionality and can be used to adjust a variety of settings, like brightness, background blur, Film Simulation effects, and image aspect ratios.

Images made with the 11 film simulations carry the look and feel of the actual films that inspired them, which are a great building block to sparking creative imaging making. In addition, 20 Advanced Filters, which includes the new Clear Filter, give even more creative possibilities.

DImensions: 121 x 83.7 x 55.1 mm
