Or in the EVF while shooting. On that subject, I hope Canon finally figured out how to add a smaller electronic level widget, not the subject obscuring monstrosity it has now.

Canon EOS R6 IBIS in action
- Thread starter Canon Rumors
- Start date
OK, so same grip as the RP means it's the same basic form factor as the RP. Obviously the R6 will basically be an RP with IBIS and 6 fewer MP. I can look forward to that as part of a stable of R series bodies.

++++ I’m really liking the sound of the R6 with its low mega pixel count which presumably means higher ISO and more FPS. IBIS must come to all decent cameras sooner or later as Sony has now set the precedence.
A.M.: a higher fps in R6 is out of scope
lower res, lower fps, single card slot, a non-magnesium body, etc comparing to R5 are just a product line differentiators. the R6 RRP will reflect upon these limitations.

Same here. I just checked the EVF of the R. In still a situation it has reached the level of OK for me (which is a big thing). But when moving the camera...meh...nah...bad. Lacking CPU? Lacking EVF refresh rate? Both? I don't know but it's not OK.

Thank you very much for sharing this information, it sure is enough for me. I currently have two EOS Rs and six RF lenses and all I am waiting for is the next RF camera. I shoot stills and do not care much about video for now and the R5 is looking really promising, looks like most of what I need is being addressed. I just need to pay off some debt.

The 20MP sensor seems a bit of an odd choice considering it will be the lowest resolution full frame on the market, except the 1D type bodies.
Which can be great if the quality is similar to the 1DX and will be a super camera for almost anything.

So how do you use filter or bracketing on fast moving subjects??
What's wrong with wanting more DR?

And yet many of those noones will buy it.I am really not sure, what is coming with R6. Name suggests continuation of 6D line. But really? Going down from 26 to 20 mpx? Who would want that? Plastic body? No nice top OLED LCD? Does not seem to be a video centric monster (A7S competition) either?
OK, just for an amusement, I will continue with my typical Canon rant - Canon is yet again going to release a camera, noone has asked for

"Canon is yet again going to release a camera, noone has asked for"
Who decides that?
If the rumoured R5 has IBIS, 45MP and 1080/60, it is very much a camera I asked for. All the other rumoured specs are mere folderal AFAIAC. Now I need to know the price. Will I keep my R? Dunn'o. Likely it won't be worth enough on the used market to bother selling, so I probably will keep it.

I admit this probably won't be the camera for me. That doesn't mean it won't sell well, just not what I was hoping for.
I was hoping it would be an R companion to the 1DX III -- slightly slower frame rate, two SDII slots, better autofocus and a few other comprises that would keep the price and positioning down but be a low light monster that would still be useful as a second body at times. Unfortunately, for me at least, this looks more like the 6D companion most people have predicted.
My latest guess about positioning:
RP stays in the lineup, but may drop in price.
R stays in the lineup, but may drop in price.
R6 is priced about where the R started, but possibly slightly lower.
R5 could be anywhere from $2,500 - $4,000, depending on final specs.
R5 and 5D V share the same sensor and have comparable specs. Not sure which one will be priced lower, or if they will essentially be the same price.
Regardless, it is going to be fun to see what Canon has in store for us and then read all the whining on Canon Rumors.
