My (not joking this time) guess -- in no particular order:
- A
- Another L prime, perhaps the 24, 35 or 135
A really wide angle L prime like a 14 or a 24 would be a sweet little bone to throw the astro guys.

I would think it would be any of those 14,24,35 but not the 135. While the EF version is my favorite lens, it just doesn't seem to be a sales favorite what with stellar zooms that cover that focal length with almost or as good as primes IQ.A really wide angle L prime like a 14 or a 24 would be a sweet little bone to throw the astro guys.

Please read this along with associated posts and infer.I do not understand the point.
The point is it is very unlikely that 8K will have any crop or a large crop because it just isn't possible for smaller resolutions to create an 8K output. The reason being is that the width of 8K is either 7680 or 8192 (depending on the 8K standard we're talking about). A 40MP sensor would have ~7680 pixels on the long end, meaning it would need the whole sensor to do one standard of 8K, and the other standard of 8K would require a whole 45MP sensor. So if they cropped into that sensor at all, the crop wouldn't have enough pixels to output 8K.I do not understand the point.
According to your math you seem to know this. It is not the internet that made me feel Canon cameras will have a crop, it is how it has been. Is 1dx3 not the 1st camera without a crop? This is why I was wondering.I am sure that's my guess!
Only canon (and maybe CR Guy) know the truth
Not smart enough... Unfortunately. This part of the technicalities I am unsure of. Ah well...Please read this along with associated posts and infer.
Canon announces development of the EOS R5 full-frame mirrorless camera
Can anyone with more technical knowledge than me, please answer this question.. What will give me a better background when shooting small birds? A plane ticket to Colombiawww.canonrumors.com
Thank you for this!!!!! I am delighted that it will be full-frame 4k. Let's see if it has RAW, DPAF, etc. I keep wondering how they will differentiate this from 1dx3. If it is on par, it will most likely be goodbye DSLR's for me.The point is it is very unlikely that 8K will have any crop or a large crop because it just isn't possible for smaller resolutions to create an 8K output.

So if they cropped into that sensor at all, the crop wouldn't have enough pixels to output 8K.
In other words, the only way this camera can have a crop on 8K will be for the sensor to be way way bigger than 45MP. As an example, if this R5 had the same resolution as the a7RIV (>60MP), even that wouldn't have enough resolution to create much of a crop - it would still need ~80% of the sensor width just to get enough pixels to output 8K - the format is just that big.
Because of all that, we can be pretty confident that there will be no crop or near no crop, unless Canon makes this by far the highest resolution full frame sensor ever.

Unless you constantly keep writing onto an almost full card (which is an alternative to not writing onto a full card at all), wear-leveling logic of the card controller should practically eliminate the difference.At the possible expense of write speed as the card becomes fragmented (due to varying file size of each image depending on scene contents).
No worries!Thank you for this!!!!! I am delighted that it will be full-frame 4k. Let's see if it has RAW, DPAF, etc. I keep wondering how they will differentiate this from 1dx3. If it is on par, it will most likely be goodbye DSLR's for me.
You need a certain amount of megapixels (MP) for 8K (33-44 MP depending on pixels on width and aspect ratio). That means, if you have 1.6X crop on 8K, then:I do not understand the point.
I got 1800 shots on one battery at Bosque this year using my R. I don't do video. Used my R almost exclusively there to try to see how the different focus tracking settings would perform because I want to use it as my b/u camera for the new R5--my main "squeeze" has been the 7DMIIThe world cannot hear your over the singing angels they claim to hear while shooting 20 fps FF cameras.
Battery power matters, I don't deny. But we're at the point that people are frothing at the mouth for what mirrorless can do in spectacular disproportion to their concern over batteries. People are just kind of dealing with the battery by packing an extra one or two, or they are pleasantly surprised with how long these mirrorless cameras actually perform in the field (with their preferred use-case, workflow, etc.) vs. estimates and specs.

Well, technically---they COULD create 4K on a 45 MP sensor by doing a 2.0 crop, since it only needs 1/4 the number of pixels. But if they can record the entire sensor as a movie at full resolution, why would they have to do that? There'd be no engineering reason to do so, that I can see.
I would think it would be any of those 14,24,35 but not the 135. While the EF version is my favorite lens, it just doesn't seem to be a sales favorite what with stellar zooms that cover that focal length with almost or as good as primes IQ.
I say wide...14 and 24
I do not have any use for 8k just yet. As long as it has good 4k - good bit rate, DPAF, RAW (or log) and full-frame, I am a happy customer.No worries!
I think a lot of people expected a crop because there have been crops in the past. Make no mistake though - 8K requires 4 times the data as 4K. That is an eye-popping amount of data, and that's why some people just don't believe this is going to happen without caveats. It is entirely possible that 8K is only possible without AF or only using an external recorder, but they should be able to do 8K at 30fps because the 1DXIII is doing 5.5K raw at 60fps, which (so I'm told) is moving about the same amount of data as 8K at 30fps. In other words, Canon has already shown that they can move that much data. With that said, I don't think the auto focus works at 60fps in 5.5k raw on the 1DXIII, so there is fair reason to think that AF may not be possible at 8K. Hard to tell what the other modes will look like - for context, if it has 4K120, that should be moving the same amount of data as 8K, and the 1DXIII can't do that so it may not be in this either.
At the end of the day though, not having AF at 8K or requiring an external recorder would be a pain, but the truth of the matter is this will likely still be the only full frame camera capable of doing 8K at all for some time.
But then again, it's all hypothetical until the camera is released, and the fact that they're claiming 8K in any form is ground breaking no matter how you slice it.
Love this photo. Really do! The blacks and the hint of lilac in the background. Favor requested: Pls pet the dog for me!The 135L doesn't sell well because:
Only the last bullet point may be true on RF. If they made one -- I'm no champion of wanting this, I'm just saying -- it would either have IS, be faster than f/2 or both.
- It's 24 years old and what was once famously sharp is no longer
- It does not have IS
- It's only a stop faster than a 70-200 2.8
- Canon's 70-200 2.8s are pretty damn legendary
Just consider an exotic tele prime that Canon might offer. Mitakon pulled off a limited run 135 f/1.4 for Sony, Nikon still makes the 105 f/1.4 for F mount, and Canon's 200 f/2L IS (and f/1.8L before it) is pretty damn sweet even if it does cost a mint:
I think there's *a* prime lens in a 100-200 range there in RF's future. Why not the 135?

14 and 24 make a lot of sense, but part of me wonders if there was any truth to the thought of creating an f/2 trinity of zooms and the 28-70 will see a wider and a longer sibling. 14-28 f/2? Count me in!I would think it would be any of those 14,24,35 but not the 135. While the EF version is my favorite lens, it just doesn't seem to be a sales favorite what with stellar zooms that cover that focal length with almost or as good as primes IQ.
