The long-rumored Canon EOS R5c is going to be announced in mid-January I have been told. It's safe to say that the camera will be announced sometime between January 11, 2022, and January 18, 2022.

Retail availability will begin 6-8 weeks after the announcement. I'm beating a dead horse here, but the chip shortage will still be playing a role in stock levels.

Canon EOS R5C Information

  • 45mp full-frame sensor (Same as the EOS R5)
  • DIGIC X
  • IBIS
  • Canon Log 3
  • Canon Log 2 is still being discussed
  • No Internal NDs
  • Unlimited 8K30P recording in Cinema RAW Light. XF-AVC and MP4
  • Timecode in/out
  • The same multipurpose hot shoe as the EOS R3. Which will work with accessories such as the Tascam XLR module.
  • Active cooling
  • 3/8″ or 1/4″ mounting point on the EVF for a top handle that won’t interfere with the hot shoe.
  • Full-size HDMI Port
  • The LCD has been moved further back to accommodate the cooling fan. So this likely means that it won’t recess into the body like the Canon EOS R5.
