Canon XC15 Style Camera Coming with EF Mount? [CR2]

We have been told a couple of times that a Canon XC15 style camera with an EF mount will be coming some time in 2018, one would think NAB in April would be the perfect time to announce such a camera.

We have seen a patent related to such a product, so that raises the possibility of it actually happening. We were first told about this camera before the publishing of the patent.

One of the sources did say that contrary to some popular opinion on the web, Canon considers the XC10 and XC15 to be a success with better than expected sales numbers.

No other specifications or information were given to us.

More to come…
