Canon U.S.A. Launches a Line of 4K UHD PTZ Cameras Ready For Integration Into a Variety of Environments

Probably has to do with this, just below:

Update #2: I have been told that Canon will announce new PTZ cameras that will cost around $4000 USD. This isn’t a new segment for them though, but their current offerings are $10,000 USD and up.

So, no, sadly, they won't be replacing my $100-$200 Hikvision cameras (which are great for what you pay!)

Hikvision is OWNED by the CCP (Chinese Communist Party). OK I guess, if you're in Beijing.

Thanks.
It looks like CR-N300 PTZ is basically an XA40 and CR-N500 PTZ is basically an XF705.
I never realized XA40 had hybrid AF
