She's worse than me... she'll stop her car to steal from her neighbors' gardens. Fantasy autofocus tilt shift zoom lenses doen't grow on trees you know... and I'm giving much needed fake love to an imaginary lonely bank manager not just taking!

Cost. It's a bummer it doesn't have the latest STM.

Is it really the cost? Or Canon didn't want to make the lens too good because the old 18-135 with nano USM was a similarly "cheap" lens.

I'm thinking they'll continue to have corner wobbles for wide lenses.

Oooh, I hope the stop-motion body will let me use the USB tethering AND HDMI at the same time.
Maybe it will this time around with the camera going to a full-size HDMI port.

1/320 Flash Sync (Full Width)

1/400 Flash Sync (Crop)

This would suggest a pretty quick sensor. The EOS R1, which has the fastest readout speed of any CMOS sensor is 1/320. The EOS R5 Mark II is /250.

This is (must be) with mechanical sensor for the R6III. I don't think it tells much about sensor readout speed (*). If it was 1/320 with electronic shutter it would be a completely different matter ( => very fast sensor readout).
It is a good and fast mechanical shutter being able to do flash sync at 1/320s. But with a non-stacked sensor I wont expect the R6III to be able to do flash-sync at all with the electronic shutter.

(*) Or am I wrong? Is sensor readout speed also important for flash-sync with mechanical shutter?

I actually did that once on a job to avoid getting written up for sexual harassment. It was over some foreman who I said was a crossdresser.

For now, I'll purchase a TS-E 17mm and a TS-E 24mm, plus the adapter and wait for Canon to release the RF versions. Hopefully Canon provides a TS 10mm, 17mm, and 24mm f1.2 for low light (wish list).

Yes Yes Yes!
Gimme the 10 and 17mm TSE.

The M6II is still my most used camera over my R8 full-frame because of its compactness. I will forever believe that Canon made a huge mistake with the way they handled the M series.

Current EF TS lenses are all excellent and there's really no reason not to get them if you need them for architecture or landscape work. I don't think the RF TS lenses are coming any time soon and it's also reasonable to expect they'll first announce one, or at best two lenses. So it might be a long while before there's a whole RF TS set (17-24-50-90-135).

My guess is that a RF 24 TS will be the first (or whatever is closest in terms of angle), followed by RF 90 TS to satisfy the product photographers.

The possibility of AF versions to me seems essentially unnecessary, especially if it causes huge price increase. What I would very much like to see (and find waaay more useful) is an included lens collar with all of these lenses. Fuji GF 30 TS is a great example. Also, I would love to see better shift controls. The knobs are fiddly and difficult to use. I think Laowa has this nailed down to perfection with their ring controls.

Speaking of which, Laowas zero-D shifts are very good and you save a bunch of money if you don't need the tilt functionality. I personally use tilt extremely rarely and 99,9% of time it's shift only.

1/320 flash synchronization. Nice!

To answer the question from the article of "will you buy it?," the answer is yes. I currently have a R5 and R6. I've held off on updating both of those, but the R6 is definitely the one of the two that would be first up for an upgrade. I shoot events, weddings, headshots and real estate. So really, any improvements in my camera are welcome.

The most appealing thing is the 32mp sensor. 20mp has been enough for most applications, and the 20mp is actually preferred to 45mp for some applications such as reception photos at a wedding. However, I'm careful to use the R5 instead for images that might require a lot of resolution or cropping. It will be nice to close that gap a little and not have to think about it as much. The 2nd thing for me is going to be the updates to the autofocus.

I guess the real question for me is not whether I will buy the R6III, but will I buy a 2nd one of them when I replace my R5, or get the R5II? I do definitely enjoy owning the R5 series and having the top-end grip-less camera, and the plan has been to get the R5II eventually. But the R6III might change that. We'll see

I haven't read all the comments in the other R6III thread, so maybe it has already mentioned...

But I'm 99% sure the photo from Alan Photo is just a mockup - an edited photo of the R6II. I think it is also confirmed by the new image from Canon France. Look at the microphone holes. It looks like they are on top. When looking at photo from Alan Photo they sit at the front just as they do on R6II.

Would say from this second picture leak, the design of camera looks more like the same as R1 and R5m2, and not like older R6m2...

Hello,

I've tried everything, but I still can't find a digital zoom option in the movie mode menu on the original Canon R. I've checked in FHD, 25p, 50p, etc., but it never appears.

However, I keep reading that it exists.

Can anyone help me?

Thank you so much!

It baffles me why they not added a nano-USM motor to the RF 85mm F2 when nano-USM was released 10 years ago in a cheap consumer lens.

Some users of EF TS lenses have stated on this forum that they do not care about AF since the subject matter

I do not think they would be the target market.
The market would be everyone who wants the benefit of tilt/shift without doing it manually.
That is a much bigger potential market.
The patents tell us that Canon is doing the design research, but we have no idea about their market research.

I have an R5 Mark II and an R8 (that's my beater camera I take when I'm doing something where the camera could get hurt) along with 12 lenses. I don't think I'll buy the R6 Mark III unless something happens to the R8. (Along with the Leica Q3, my insurance agent is asking if I may have too much camera gear.)

There is no such thing as too much camera gear. Same with guitars. If your budget allows it, enjoy the hell out of every piece of equipment you can get. But get rid of the stuff you are not using.

Skyfall · Nov 4, 2025

I am pretty sure I will buy the r6 iii. I currently own an r6 i and it would be nice with a second body. Usable electronic shutter, better dynamic range, autofocus and effectively a 1.25 tc built in sound like a reasonable upgrade.

blackcoffee17 · Nov 4, 2025

No need to reinvent the wheel or redesign the body at every single iteration, just put the best possible APS-C sensor in the R5 body and that's all.

Can you really not imagine using autofocus opening more new possibilities for t/s than a lens collar would? Or the chance Canon or a third party would provide lens collars for rf to lenses?

Is this also hinting at a new RF 24-105 f/4L? If you zoom in you can see the 105mm end and the lens hood design looks new. I'd be super down for an improvement of this lens!

That´d really be wonderful! I can't really tell from the pic, but maybe it is the rumored 24-70mm F2.8 IS VCM? Anyway, I´m looking forward to mkii´s hitting the shelves

BTW: I´d love a RF 24-130mm F4 L or a 200gr lighter 24-105mm F4 L. Just saying... maybe drop the IS to save some weight.
