The Canon EOS R6 Mark III is coming November 6, 2025 as previously reported, it will be announced alongside an interesting lens in the RF 45mm f/1.2 STM, which will come in at under $600! There has been some contradiction on pricing, but not higher than originally reported.
The Canon EOS R6 Mark III is going to be a confirmed €2899, but the US pricing is a “tentative” $2899, that is not confirmed at this time.
Information Trickles In
More specification for the EOS R6 Mark III continue to hit the inbox, and some of them are not confirmed, but they are likely to be part of the equation.
As you can see, most of the specifications are very close to the Cinema EOS C50, which shouldn’t come as much of a surprise, it seems they are joined at the hips.
Canon didn’t put all that much about the photography specifications when they announced the Cinema EOS C50, and it’s obvious as to why that was.
If the specification is marked as “unconfirmed”, it’s due to where the information came from.
Canon RF 45mm f/1.2 STM Image
Below is an image of the upcoming Canon RF 45mm f/1.2 STM that should give you an idea of how big it is in relation to an “unofficial” RF mount camera. You can come up with your own guesses on which camera.
We received other images, but we are unable to post them at this time.

The Unconfirmed
It has now been mentioned by a couple of people that they see no evidence that the EOS R6 Mark III will get the DIGIC accelerator that we see in the EOS R5 Mark II and EOS R1. I hope this isn’t correct, but we can’t confirm it one way or another.
The EOS R6 Mark III going with the CFe Type B and SD UHS-II set up makes a lot of sense even if I don’t personally like it. They can now have the memory card mechanism the same across multiple cameras.
But it would be interesting, which white lens is attached to that 2x extender 😉
Could this be a new one? Or is it an already released one?
We didn't report a rumor of a larger EVF for the R72 as far as I can recall.
The eyecup and the colour of the lugs.
0.9x equivalent OLED EVF with a higher resolution that the current 2.36m-Dot in the EOS R7 - everything we have been told about the R7mkii sep 20th. That implies it has to be bigger
The EVF could see a jump to 5.76M dots, pulled from the R5 Mark I, with improved refresh rate - Canon EOS R7 Mark II: Minor Tweaks or a Major Transformation? May 15th in now deleted article.
There's also been times where you've had "EOS R5 Mark II body size and layout" or some similar wording about it being larger that would again point to evf and eyecup etc being larger too.
I know a recent article kinda walked back on some that but you've mentioned it being bigger in the past a few times
The recent article was a wishlist...... anyway,.this isn't an R72 and this article has nothing to do with an R72 other than one paragraph that I thought was articulated well enough.
And I know I'm just pointing out that with everything that's been written about about the R7mkii on this site I don't think those points about the evf would necessarily confirm it's more likely a R6mkiii.
.....ok
1. The diopter dial is on the right side of the EVF, just like the R6 II and unlike the R7, where it is on the left.
2. There is a lock position inbetween the On and Off position, just as it can be found on the R6 II.
3. There seems to be a dial to the left of the EVF, possibly the stills/video switch as it can be found on the R6 II.
So unless the R7 II shares the nearly exact same body with the R6 III it is likely in my opinion that this is the R6 III.
Nothing there is wrong.
