We already have the c70. The point of a R5C would just be an R5 with active cooling and probably a few software tweaks for video. if they do anymore it might as well be a c90 or something different. I do want a small camera for video. The c70 is nice but still a bit annoying on the gimbal and the AF could use a lot of work.R5c is supposed to be bigger than the R5.
A lot of folks would complain but I would not mind micro XLR.
The main selling point to me would be a cinema camera with IBIS.We already have the c70.

Cooling mods arent the same as having real cooling. I dont even know how well the mods work and that external one does have compromises, like you cant even close the screen and cant put a grip on the camera.The main selling point to me would be a cinema camera with IBIS.
With all of the cooling mods now available for the R5, it would probably also need internal ND to sway me.
On the other hand, there are many people who want an 8K handheld video camera with unlimited recording.
I've just checked and cannot find such a tariff for the EU. Which HS code is it?I checked earlier this year and it was still there.

Thanks!For the reference:
EU import duties for the HS 8525 80 30 (digital cameras in general) are 0%.
EU import duties for the HS 8525 80 91 (camcorders) used to be 0.8% before July, 1st, 2021; 0% since then.
0.8% in the first half of 2021. It was being gradually reduced since 2016 or so.Thanks!
It is good to know that it ended July 1st but was it 0.8% or 8%?
0.8% would not be very much money.
Thanks, I guess that is why people thought it went away in 2016.0.8% in the first half of 2021. It was being gradually reduced since 2016 or so.
Hell, just drop it for ALL new models.The last time I checked there was still an E.U. tax but it was only 5%.
I don't think Canon can get away with changing the record limit in existing models.
However, they should get rid of it for any video-focused models.
Panasonic and Sony have.
Kit verified upthread that the tariff expired July 1st.Hell, just drop it for ALL new models.
Let the folks in EU argue over there that it is a stupid tax, and get it repealed.
Everyone else in the world shouldn't have to suffer because of their stupid taxation laws....?
And while I'm thinking of it....Kit verified upthread that the tariff expired July 1st.
There is not much reason for a 30-minute time limit going forward.
Hopefully, the R3 won't have one.
I doubt that the tax repeal is retroactive.And while I'm thinking of it....
This limit pretty much HAS to be reversible via a firmware update...this is an artificial limitation.
The camera has GPS. Easy enough to establish if the camera is initially setup in a country where the taxes are applicable. This limit should not be enforced worldwide.I doubt that the tax repeal is retroactive.
I do not think Canon could get away with firmware updates.
it would be one less reason to get their cinema line or camcorders so it might hurt their pockets potentially and that matters the most to a business.Kit verified upthread that the tariff expired July 1st.

YES! I have built one from PRIMO microphone capsules which works with the lousy ~2V power supply from the 3.5mm jack and gives a good sound not to far away from the Videomic NTG (but less focused, slightly more noise).Nice addition.
I wonder if Zoom and Rode will also be able to produce on-cam microphone.
It's time for a good low-profile stereo microphone.
Nothing came out since years.
Having no wire and no batteries to think about, will be a huge plus.

Here: https://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/dds2/taric/measures.jsp?Lang=en&Taric=8525809100show me a source saying this.
See thatand it makes zero mention of the tariffs dropping to zero and zero mention of this July 1, 2021 date.
