The Canon EOS R camera body has been discontinued for quite some time, and we have reported for a long time that it would not get a direct replacement, but that there would be a full-frame camera below the Canon EOS R6.

An unconfirmed rumor about such a replacement has appeared on Weibo.

Canon EOS R8 Specifications (Rumored)

  • 30.3mp Full-Frame Sensor
  • DIGIC X
  • 5-axis in-body stabilization
  • 12fps Mechanical
  • 4K 30p (No Crop)
  • 4K 60p (Cropped)
  • CFexpress/SD dual card slot

We haven't heard about such a camera or seen such a spec list, so please treat this information accordingly.

We believe that only one more camera is coming from Canon in 2022, and that will be an APS-C camera.
