Is the EOS R6 V Canon’s Answer to the Nikon ZR?

[Canon Rumors]

It has been a weird few days around here. There have been lots of gaffes on my part, but the full-frame “V” series camera is coming soon. I have been trying to figure out where an EOS R6 V would fit in the line-up from a pricing angle. I have no idea what the price […]

Timeout didn't last very long lol

The Nikon ZR uses CFexpress Type B and a microSD card to fit everything into its thin body. We haven't seen that configuration from Canon yet, but microSD is going to start appearing in more cameras this year and in the future.

MicroSD? Interesting. The PowerShot V10 has a microSD slot, as does my little PowerShot Zoom monocular (I took a couple of pictures on it once, then spent quite a while trying to find the little adapter for the card).

Well written article and it seems logical. Now, let´s wait and see what Canon actually is up too

I have never figured out how not to lose them. There's a half dozen of them in my house somewhere.

A testable set of predictions. Courageous!

It has to have CFExpress B to do any of the 7K and raw codecs, but perhaps just a single slot.

If this camera doesn’t have IBIS, I think it will struggle. I use my R6 III way more than my C50 for video because it has IBIS (I like fast, manual focus primes). A big reason for the FX3, S1 II, and ZR success is that you can keep them small and handheld because of the IBIS. Plenty of ways to differentiate the R6V from the C50 (handle, XLR, timecode, cooling) and R6 III (EVF, mechanical shutter) and still have IBIS.

Not to sound dramatic, but I used the ZR and was blown away. The 4" screen should be mandatory for any video-focused camera going forward (nice work, Kinefinity Vista).

SD card slot? That would mean no 8K video i guess. So no 33 MP Sensor neccessary, could work with the R6II 24MP sensor. And no IBIS. Except for the LP-E6 Battery (and the ?dual SD slot?) we are pretty much in R8 territory with that.

Will it even shoot 7K? It is the same sensor though. There will be compromises somewhere.

The CFe/mSD setup is interesting.

Scared about the HDMI port!

I hope it has an active hotshoe for flash and IBIS. It will make it a clearer distinction from the C50, but I doubt it due to its placement being cheaper than the C50 in the lineup
