Canon EOS R6 V Specs: Active Cooling and more…

[Canon Rumors]

The Canon EOS R6 V is coming on May 13, 2026 and it looks like the full specifications are coming out. We don't have the full specifications information, but we did get new ones today that corrected a couple of things, as well as new specs that appeared on the Ordinary Filmmaker YouTube channel that […]

So this is exactly as the C50 with ibis? Im not seeing the difference except for ibis

Speaking about Ordinary Filmaker, unfortunately i cannnot bring myself to like that channel due to the constant clickbait title and putting his face front and center on all the thumbnails of his videos and aso making multiple videos on a single rumors.

Not hating about him as a person tho, just not a fan of his channel.

As a prime lens user (mainly 35, 85, 20 in that order), the 20-50 f4 L is the first zoom lens to interest me in years.

It would be equally small, and cover 20, 24, 28, 35,50 and with crop factor, ~80. I.e. 99% of my photography in one lens, that potentially doesnt extend crudely at your subject like most other standard zooms.

A 35mm with crop covers 35 and 50 at f1.4/f2 so that would still likely be on my camera most of the time, but the 20-50 might get a lot of use and be perfect for travel and casual shots.

Would be great if you could have a subtle click feedback at e.g. 35mm. Leica used to have a lens with three set focal lengths i.e. not continuous. But if it doesnt extend when zooming, it can be left in position anyway without needing to ...

I used to have a Tri-Elmar, it was cool. I always wondered why no one else gave that concept a shot.

A new remote? That tiny little detail in this rumor is what might actually interest me Does anybody use the Canon BR-E1 with the Canon R5? I´d love to hear about your experience. I´m getting tired of using "camera connect" as a remote and I am actively searching for BT option. It would be great if I can find one with a timer or a small display that shows the time in bulb mode. I am open for any suggestions

haha, I have never used one so I didn't want to hypothesize what could be better.

Also no Cinema OS, so dynamic range and high ISO is worse. Seems like a boring gap-filler to be honest. I expected more, but maybe competent enough in Canon's world.

I have been begging and crying for a compact ff for years. Now it's here and I can't decide to be happy or sad.
It's the usual - it's too big, too heavy, too expensive.

- 5X(!) the _current_ price of the R50V, it's basically the price of the R6m3
- only 20% smaller than the R6m3 while the R50V is more than 40%(!) smaller than the R50 despite the R50 already being small
- only 100g lighter than the R6m3
- SONY's 33MP and 60MP ff compact is 40% smaller than the R6V!!!!! What is happening here?!?!

OK, maybe I'm looking at it wrong and this is absolutely a cinema camera since it's doing 7K raw and should be compared to C series only and by no means is this a ff compact for photography, any such capability is just a sideeffect...as in C series.
In that case, I need to wait for R8V maybe?

C50 Has:

• XLR Handle
• Pro Audio Options
• Dual Base ISO
• Full Cinema OS
• HDR
• IP Streaming
• Timecode
• More button customization
• Simultaneous Crop Recording
• Claimed 16-stops of DR
• Shutter Angle (why doesn't the r63 have it?)
  
  There may be more differences. These are completely different cameras for different customers.

Also no Cinema OS, so dynamic range and high ISO is worse. Seems like a boring gap-filler to be honest. I expected more, but maybe competent enough in Canon's world.

The "more" IS the C50.

I use the Canon BR-E1 with the Canon R5.
BT connectivity is OK (not as bas as Camera Connect is with the R5).
But implementation of Canon BR-E1 in R5's functions is far from ideal, you can't use it with every drive mode as I would like it and you do it with the cable release.
So I still use the cable release from time to time.
No, there is no display on the BR-E1 as it is on TC-80N3, you still use the timer within the camera.

The R5II outruns the R5 regarding BT connectivity in any aspect.

Yes, but this is limited for movies And stills. R5C is still much less of a compromise in one at least.

Sure, so buy an R5 C. Having options seems like a good thing. If you don't care about what it's missing (and it's missing a lot)... it's great value today. That was also a $4500 camera at launch.

 

[Randolph]

Add internal NDs and I would be sold.

 

[ChyckenPotPie]

I hope the new remote has a servo rocker with the option to be plugged in. It would be nice to have a "somewhat parfocal," less expensive, baby CN-30 40-1200mm too!

If see it right, it's the R6 V that will have the switch to change focal length. Maybe the RF 20-50 will keep a normal ring for manual focal changes and integrate a camera-controlled motor? I guess many of us would prefer this option over a switch on the lens.

Interesting. I think that's unlikely based on the rumored lens name, since there is already a PZ lens (RF-S 14-30 PZ) where the focal length is controlled by the 'zoom ring' (i.e., ring-shaped rocker switch) on the lens. But having a control on the camera would also make sense, so I can see having that in addition to the one on the lens.

Edit: to clarify, I meant unlikely that the RF 20-50 PZ will have a 'normal' zoom ring. The R50 V has a zoom control around the shutter button like the mockup in the main page post, so it seems very likely that an R6 V would have the same control.

My understanding is that the body in the image is a mockup, maybe AI generated. Maybe the new remote supports zooming the PZ lens.

Yep. The W and T labels on the control in the image are such that the subject in front of the camera can read them, and they would be upside-down for the person holding the camera, which doesn't make sense.

I have unsubscribed from his channel long time ago because of the clickbait title frustration and time-wasting. But Google keeps recommending his stuff so I often end up watching anyway.
