Canon to announce two new cameras this week? [CR2]
- Thread starter Canon Rumors
- Start date
Please be an APSC compact, weather-sealed, fixed lens camera to compete with the Fuji X100F/Rico GR3 as a replacement/upgrade to the G series.
Lots of opportunities to redefine that compact carry everywhere camera market.

Canon should produce something like R2 – a flagship camera with the best specs with almost no compromise, relatively compact in size (R5 size), money is no object. Just for marketing purposes. Give it to those youtubers for free. And it would bring a lot of people to Canon.
I can see a lot of people buying Sony cameras (mostly A7iii) just because their favorite youtuber uses 7Siii or A1

I would buy an up to date modern point and shoot with good spec. I'd prefer a compact APS-C as apposed to a smaller sensor

It is a good camera, if it had an updated AF system and a few other tweaks that might be enough

I'd love to see an M5II, and then love it even more when all the M haters lose their sh$t!

Woo hoo! EOS M-something! Dream list of features:
- Runs Android 11 or 12 to allow loading of Adobe LR and other photo apps on Google Play to incorporate into the workflow, also enabling Canon to work with Adobe and other vendors for a plug and play approach to workflow on-device
- Generous megapixel count for pixel-peeping joy (40-50 Mpx); the era of stingy megapixel count is long past, let's move on
- Pixel-binning and pixel shift to support low noise for astrophotography and super high resolution for landscape
- IBIS
But whatever happens, I'm still excited for the prospect of a new M-something.

For APSC 32 MP (as seen in the M6-II is actually not stingy. You'd need an 82 MP (roughly) full frame to hit that pixel density, and few of those are out there. To get 45 MP which you consider non-stingy would be the equivalent of a 115 MP full frame. Admittedly I don't follow other brands (so someone please correct me if I am wrong), but I don't think such a thing exists yet.
