5Ghz wifi capabilities confirmed for the Canon EOS R5

Franklyok · Apr 9, 2020

Is there any GPS options?

I don't think 12fps mechanical 20fps electronic is a rumour any more. Canon Canada's website lists that spec as legit:

The R5 is the most exciting camera rumor in many years. Canon is flexing its muscles again!

Also wonder if the certification confirming 5GHz WiFi would have told us if it had GPS?

Is it know if it's a flippy screen? I'm hoping it is...

The picture I've seen looks like a flippy screen. I'm not sure though of the validity of the pics.

Yep, that has already been confirmed.

If it is as rumoured, I will replace a GFX50s with one- assuming I can sell the one and afford the other.

Liveview/Movie toggle like previous EOS DSLRs

Based on the photos it doesn't seem to actually have this, btw

Still kills me a bit that the top left side only has the on-off switch with all that real estate. Why not keep the DSLR on/off switch and add a custom button (or 2) there?

Because mirrorless cameras operate in a live view mode exclusively?

I think only the BOLD items are still rumors. like the 45K sensor

Looks the same as the pics on the Canon UK site... https://www.canon.co.uk/cameras/eos-r5/

Correct!
BOLD = still just rumored
Everything else is more or less confirmed

20th April will be press release, um, no? More like 2 weeks.

I just hope this has good low light capabilities.

Most probably using external reciever or by syncing with cell phone only. So far Canon hasnt mentioned built in GPS(which is a good thing given that GPS can be a battery hog) for this camera.
