Canon China Teases ‘New Companion’ Coming Feb 24

[Blue Zurich]

The number depicted could as well be a part on an 8 instead of a 3 so my guess is "R8" for an entry level DSML. 8 ist also a very popular number in the far east and means "good luck".

DSML, huh. Did you come up with that, I have to admit, mirrorless hasn't latched onto a single acronym like dslr has. I'll be straightened out in 3...2...1...

I've heard DSLM (Digital single lens mirrorless) a few times in the context of German discussions. I find it much less bad that MILC (Mirrorless interchangeable lens camera), which sound like milk, or EVIL (Electronic viewfinder interchangeable lens), which just sounds stupid.

I am guessing we are getting three new products. I'd guess:
1. R7 semi pro camera
2. 800mm lense
3. 1200mm lense

It's a common error to make, but the singular of "lenses" is lens, NOT "lense"

A lens
Some lenses

Fantasising that the "new companion" or "long awaited friend" will be a compact stabilised 180mm macro lens.
Some chance!

Emm，R5C is not announces in china yet

Not being fluent in the language, it looked to me that it was only a flashy announcement of the R5C.

Canon announced the R5C in China along with the two Lenses. It is now on the web site.
