No mention of new bodies.
Yeah it's been pretty quiet on the R, RP replacements and possible R7. It'd be nice to know more, especially in the wake of Sony

Edit to add: if the 18-45 does indeed come out this year, as Neuro suggests, then that may shed some light on Canon's plans for crop R-mount cameras, if any.

No mention of new bodies. Could mean rumors are wrong or Canon not wanting to tip their hand. Big whites are overdue and would be appropriate for the R3. Or they may be focusing on additional consumer lenses given how successful they’ve been.
Canon registered two new cameras we just do not know what they are

Canon already has a 45 MP camera that shoots 20 FPS
Yes but it's not for sports and is not well suited for big whites or ergonomics vertical to horizontal. Would prefer two CFExpress for workflow with two 512 and or 1TB cards. The R5 blooms in direct sun, Canon needs to address this for a sports camera for those of who shoot outdoors and and into stadium lighting.

Seems there will be two more lenses announced this year. Unless they are including the two converters in the total of 26. Only a month and a half left in the year.
I believe in the EF lineup, teleconverters were considered (and counted) as lenses. On the canon USA website, when you filter by RF lenses the extenders are on the list.

Not my desire, but my guess:
  • Canon RF 18-45mm f/4-5.6 IS STM
  • Canon RF 24mm f/1.8 IS STM Macro
Just curious, why do you think an 18-45mm f/4-5.6 is likely? That would be an unusual range for FF. Are you thinking there's going to be an APS-C RF body soon? I don't remember what opinion you've expressed on that before.
