Will there really three new Canon R bodies this year?

Canon is having a strong pace of releases for their R system. It’s now rumored they will launch three new EOS-R bodies this year:

  1. Canon EOS-R High Resolution camera
  2. Canon EOS-R super affordable camera that costs less than $999
  3. Canon EOS-R Low resolution optimized camera (sort of Sony A7s alike)

The High Resolution camera is definitely coming first. And also a cine oriented low light beats makes sense. But I am not sure that super cheap EOS-R camera is really a Full Frame…

Fuji is going to have a super busy announcement time from now on. No other company is pushing so many announcements per year :)

Fujirumors posted a set of new Fujinon GF45-100mmF4 Hands On Images. This lens will be announced end of January. And there will be soon a new X100V with 2 way Tilt Screen too. And than of course we should get the X-T4 and maybe some other stuff too…

In the meantime giants like Sony, Panasonic and Nikon are a bit asleep :)

Canon EOS-RP sensor gets tested at DxOmark: “not that far behind the sensors in the Nikon Z 6 and Sony A7 III”

DxOmark published the full EOS-RP sensor test:

As the first and only entry-level full-frame mirrorless camera currently available, the Canon EOS RP provides an easier entry into the full-frame mirrorless market than the EOS R from a pricing point of view. However, it might be too much to expect the RP sensor to match the current leading-edge sensor performance in the considerably more expensive mid-range mirrorless models. At the moment, those wanting better sensor performance from a Canon full-frame mirrorless camera, particularly with regard to dynamic range, will have to spend considerably more on the Canon EOS R.

This said, noise levels and color accuracy are very good and not that far behind the sensors in the Nikon Z 6 and Sony A7 III. These traits, combined with its inherent portability and generally good mix of features and ergonomics, make the RP an attractive option for travel, street, and yes, even landscape photographers.
