We reported back in January that Canon had a mystery camera with a new body style in prototype form. We’re now being told by the same source that the camera in question is a full frame mirrorless camera prototype.</p>
<p>We were told a few things about the appearance of the camera.</p>
<ul>
<li>It has a top down LCD like the Leica SL.</li>
<li>The flange distance looks too short for it to be an EF mount, but no lens was attached to the body to be sure.</li>
<li>A press of the shutter button in burst mode sounded like it shot over 10fps.</li>
<li>There were no markings on branding on the body</li>
</ul>
<p>These sorts of leaks are rare, but they more often than not turn out to have some kind of truth to them. I expect multiple full frame mirrorless prototypes to exist.</p>
<p>There is nothing on the 2018 road map that suggests Canon will be announcing a full frame mirrorless camera this year, though that could still change between now and Photokina, but we put the possibility of this happening quite low.</p>
<p>We have been told that the second half of 2018 is going to be “a lot more interesting” than the first half.</p>
