I have been told that the official announcement for the Canon EOS R6 will not happen until July now. This is coming from two sources and contradicts our own report from two weeks ago that said the camera was still scheduled for announcement in May.
I have also been told not to expect the Canon EOS R6 to begin shipping until late Q3 in 2020, which sounds like August/September.
I haven't been told if we'll get a similar development announcement for the EOS R6 that we have had for the EOS R5, but I can't see that happening.
Canon EOS R6 Specifications:
- 20mp full-frame CMOS sensor

- July 2020 launch

I'm wondering if there is an R5 surprise that allows Canon to sell it at a 5D price point yet still get the bigger dollars for the 8K functionality.
I still think it's a $3499 body, but I would not be shocked at all if there was a one-time service center trip + nasty fee or expensive external bolt-on required to get 8K working. But I haven't obsessed over each wave of announcements -- I don't know if Canon has already stated if that will / will not be the case.

Me too :-)

Price is a big mistery right now... Specswise even 4k$ would be reasonable, there is simply no camera with the same specs
