Canon registers another camera for certification

In their most recent financial documents Canon wrote:

"As for Imaging, starting with cameras, from the second quarter, in addition to the optimization of market inventory, through the enhancement of our EOS R system lineup, we will increase our mirrorless camera ratio, thereby facilitating sales growth.

The second quarter goes through the end of June, so we should be able to see something new fairly soon.

We have plenty of big cameras, not a single pocketable, like the M100/M6.
Plenty of big cameras? Is the R5 big? Depends on the point of view. I don't think.
For me, a handholdable camera starts with the 5 D IV, R3 being optimal. There are already plenty of pocketable cameras on the market, all the MFTs, Fuji's APS/Cs, Sony's APS/cs, Canon's R7, R8, R, RP (with RF 28mm ), Leica's Q2 & 3.
Would even smaller Canon cameras make sense? For many, certainly. I surely understand your wishes! :)
But I was only expressing my very personal opinion, since I hate pressing 3 buttons at a time when I want to press only one. my nice little Olympus MFT sleeps unused in a cupboard. The smaller the camera, the more cramped it is. Fine if you have small hands, I don't. And this why I abhor small cameras, and keep hoping for a larger R5 II. (Knowing it won't happen). :cry:

Could number 5 be the high MP EOS (R5 S)?
This new camera does not have wifi 6 and therefore it seems unlikely to me. I expect that Canon would put wifi 6 in a high megapixel body since this is a camera that will be used in a studio environment and, with bigger file sizes, would benefit from better wifi.
