This was just a joke... it's like this "X" sort of name inflation not only for cameras - I am happy that Canon abandoned that with the RF systemThe R5 and R6 also have vehicle namesake according to Google results. So I doubt that's actually a factor.
If there were a 5Dv then it would either be a R5 with OVF (using existing R5 sensor) or basically a pair of OVF (5Dv) and mirrorless Rii (using a new sensor).Oh the consternation if that ever comes! The internet would break. At least the photography corner of it.
A 32MP R6II would have me going yo mirrorless if not a price increase. Otherwise, Nikon and Sony a better value for me and landscape.I am guessing we are getting three new products. I'd guess:
1. R7 semi pro camera
2. 800mm lense
3. 1200mm lense
I´m hoping for:
1. Spiritual Eos R successor (imho R8)
2. RF 300-800mm F8 L zoom
3. A big surprise make it an RF 14mm F1.8 L and take all my money
I´m wishing for:
1. A R6 Mk II with 32MP
2. RF 12mm F2
3. RF 300-800mm F8 L (boy, that patent got me dreamin´)
A 5DMkv with the R5 sensor and a few improvements (wider AF coverage, better tracking, tilting screen, CFE-B & SD slots) would be really nice.If there were a 5Dv then it would either be a R5 with OVF (using existing R5 sensor) or basically a pair of OVF (5Dv) and mirrorless Rii (using a new sensor).
The former option would be relatively simple but (like the 1DXiii) give better AF performance in live view mode. Cost is likely to be higher as well (similar to 5Div vs R).
The latter is also possible as a replacement R is due to occur and M6ii/90D is an example of dual model release. Again, the AF performance in live view and cost differential would be significant.
The question for everyone is whether there would be a significant demand for a new 5Dv given the many advantages of mirrorless besides battery life?

Yes when looking at the gold colored part of the 3 in the picture, to me it claerly indicates half of an 8.If we expect the R7 to be an APS-C body, I would the the R8 must be one as well.
But maybe you are onto something here. Looking at that 3 in the picture, it does come suspiciously close to an 8. Not to mention the infinity symbol at the bottom, which might also just be an 8 on its side.
Thank you for destroying my dreams!I am Chinese.
Let me translate the characters. The characters on the top means “I am coming late but finally come”. The 4 white Chinese characters make up an idiom with original means “a coming late lady walks gracefully without hurry”. The middle characters mean “3 days before Canon new product(s) announcement”. The bottom yellow characters mean “the announcement time: 19:00 February 24, 2022 (China Standard Time)”. The characters below the QR code mean “the live announcement address”.
I think the red ∞ at the bottom background may be a great hint for the Canon EOS R5 C with nearly no time limits for video recording. The camera has not been officially announced in China or in many Asia countries.
It’s not relevant to what we like here, except that if it contributes to sales and profits, it might be relevant to us.Exactly. It wasn't meant like a "hate thing". Just that, that is mostly not what we care about here (And a bit annoying just when we get our hopes up for something "better")
Except that it goes on quite openly. Public officials and the police ignore the laws there and even protect the offenders. There prolly more of that going on in China than anywhere else.That would have been a Japanese launch then. Such immorality is illegal in China and would throw you in jail.
I'm always interested in new gear, but for at least another year, I plan to just stick to my R5 for wildlife and nature - butterflies, dragonflies, mammals, reptiles, amphibians, birds, botany, fungi, lichens, landscapes and seascapes.If it's the R7 I'll sell my M6 Mark II in anticipation. My set up will be:
R6 for gigs/portraits/events
R7 for birds
80D that I leave set up next to my lightbox for products
Let's gooooo!
In today's environment of SEVERE shortages of everything, I wouldn't sell until the new item is in hand.If it's the R7 I'll sell my M6 Mark II in anticipation. My set up will be:
