There are still surprises in store for the Canon EOS R5 announcement [CR2]

[Th0msky]

Take my money already!!

Perhaps they've found a way to double the pixel density for stills...so you get a 180MP for your stills and 45MP for your video.

That would be very interesting indeed...

 

[Th0msky]

or better video than coming Sony A7SIII with 8k and more MP?

why would u need MPX for video..?

 

[mariosk1gr]

AI - Computational photography? nah... It's too early for FF cameras. They need a ton of processing power! If it's DGO from the other hand, that will make every man on this planet very happy also!

 

[LSXPhotog]

I'm hopeful that the time spent developing its sensor stabilization was used to create something very impressive and reliable. I also hope that Canon has witnessed some of the possibilities with this tech like high resolution and night sky modes from other brands and taken things a step further.

 

[Russ6357]

APSC mode?

You need a count down clock on the front page -- but then you would need to know the announcement time. Oh well.

 

[jolyonralph]

please please please let it be a user-removable/replaceable IR cut filter

sorry, I meant: better video and more MP for stills than the Sony

 

[snappy604]

hoping for Pixel Shift or Software Neutral Density.. they used to do it for the G series of cameras.

What if the IBIS assembly moves back enabling us to natively use EF lenses on the R5.

 

[dichterDichter]

i really hope not to read "a.i." in every second sentence which is just a bullshit-bingo trend right now. maybe they could bring back eye-controlled focuspoint ..

 

[blackcoffee17]

Multi-shot mode that is actually useful in that it works with flash (unlike every other mirrorless camera) making high resolution stills a very useful studio features rather than a headline grabbing/clickbait spec.

Multi-shot without flash is not a gimmick and usable in many situations. I would say most, like landscapes. With flash i think its harder to implement because of flash recycling times between each shot.

 

[TheSalvatore]

I thought exactly the same ! let's hope that is something more than this, but is already fine

Hopefully it'll be something more than this!

 

[blackcoffee17]

Not sure if the body is deep enough for that. Would be easier the other way around - move the sensor forward in EF camera. But then you would lose OVF.

 

[Ralph Conway]

I guess it will be usable ISO 51.200

 

[JustUs7]

In camera focus stacking, like the RP, only it combines the final image in camera as well.

 

[Paul Nordin]

Two things that have not been discussed yet: Resolution & DR.

 

[LensFungus]

You get a free money printer by Canon so you can afford the RF L glass. \o/

 

[MaxDiesel]

Even though I know it’s next to impossible to create without reducing image quality and it may be large due to all glass in it.
I’d LOVE to see an RF-EF adapter.
Since they noted, no more EF Lenses this would be a good trade off.
