A camera, likely the EOS R5 has shown up for certification according to Nokishita.
The certification shows a new battery as we reported previously, it'll be the LP-E6NH with a voltage of 7.2v and 2130mAh. Perhaps the “H” means “high-capacity”.
The certification also says the camera is compatible with the Speedlite 600EX-RT, does that mean the EOS R5 will have a wireless trigger? We haven't heard that suggestion previously.
The camera is also compatible with the Canon RS-60E3.

mAh figures are not comparable if you don’t know the voltages. mWh is what matters.
Oh and a few DO lenses...
* Or at least it will make Canon users smile :D
Looking at photos of the camera from the Vegas show, it looks like the area under the hotshoe is a separate piece from the rest of the body. I assumed this camera doesn't have a pop-up flash. Maybe there's a pop-up flash trigger?
No, that’s the ”window” for the radio antennas (WLAN and GPS). Although I don’t see why there couldn’t be a radio trigger for RT flashes as well.
FOR THE LOVE OF BOKEH WILL SOMEONE LEAK A PRICE SO I CAN START HINT-DROPPING ON THE WIFE OH HELP ME PLEASE!
The PC Sync is on the side of the camera, seen here with the flash bolt icon:
The front is definitely the remote port, whichever type it is, much like on the 5D Mark IV.
True.
BUT: Voltages are the same i.e. 7.2V for the LP-E6N (EOS R) and this one.
That means the increase in energy is proportional i.e. 2130/1865 -> 14% more energy.
But what we still dont know: Will this lead to a higher CIPA rating regarding number of photos that can be taken with a charge? I think: Unlikely, because the power consumption of the R5 might be quite higher given new features like IBIS etc.
