I've use 1080p on the R5 many times and it has very good quality 1080p. The EOS R's 1080p is muddy af compared to the R5's 1080p.
And the 4K is worse yet.

Sounding like a baby C70What makes you say that?
I won't count on that, I'm pretty sure it will be more expensive than the R5Sony's FX3 is $3,900, so hopefully the R5c also comes in under the $4k mark. It really should, as it seems its only improvements over the R5 are unlimited record times and the electronic hot shoe. Timecode is already pretty accessible with something like tentacle sync. And candidly there's no reason the current R5 shouldn't already have unlimited recording in 1080p and non-HQ 24fps 4k. All other competing mirrorless cams offer unlimited record times at this price point, so it does feel like Canon has held back adding that in firmware to justify an R5c. Long record times are more appealing in non-raw anyway. C-Log2 and internal ND's (even just a single 3-stop or 6-stop filter would be welcome) and would make it much, much more compelling. An internal ND would make the R5c sing and stand out in its segment.
Did you seriously just ask this question? Unlimited 8k? No thanks. What about unlimited 1080 and 4k?
One would assume if it could do 8k unlimited (no overheating) then it could also do the 1080 and 4k modes unlimited. I guess only time will tell for sure. If your question was about recording limits, I would assume it would be all or nothing - meaning they all have the 30min limit or none of them do. But again, time will tell.Unlimited 8k? No thanks.

I'll guess $4500. Just a guess.I won't count on that, I'm pretty sure it will be more expensive than the R5
I've seen people in that group complain about the hot shoe and I have absolutely no idea what they're doing with their cameras. I shot over 200,000 images on my R5 over the last year and maybe 50-80,000 of those were with a heavy Flashpoint V1 attached to the hot shoe - I've personally never had an issue. So when I see all these people breaking them, I have to ask what they were doing and never get a sensible reply to justify their trustworthiness or simple incompetence. I don't believe the hot shoe on the R6 and R5 to be any lower quality than previous 5D and 6D cameras.I have seen anecdotal reports of the R5's hotshoe being a common fault ie physical breakage (Facebook R5 Shooters group). My 5Div could be held by the 600EX easily but I am very cautious to do so with my R5 but reports were that Canon would replace without charge. Clearly the camera shouldn't be held in this way but a demonstration of the sturdiness of the old mount.
Hopefully the new multipurpose hotshoe won't have the same issues especially as there will be more stuff hanging from it.
Wondering what lenses are in store as well to pair the thr R3 I’m waiting on.We've been holding out on upgrading our gimbal EOS R at work awaiting the EOS R5C. We mainly shoot 1080p to be honest, so it hasn't been a pressing issue, but we're definitely interested in a more video centric option with unlimited record time and the upcoming XLR adapter. The R3 would be a definite option, but the gimbals definitely work better with the smaller bodies.
That said, on the personal end of things after picking up the R3 I'm more excited to see lenses get announced than cameras. A 35mm f1.2 or 1.4 would be nice, and I'd love to see a 300mm 2.8 or similar prime or zoom come out for the RF mount. I hope they announce some lenses with it!
I doubt its a "given". So far we have only rumours.Why would the resolution be different than the R5 given its the same sensor?
So the OP says:do we think this isn't reliable and still quite a rumor? What sensor would they use if not?I doubt its a "given". So far we have only rumours.
But I think its quite likely that we can expect a 45mpixel sensor =)
I would imagine that whatever replaces the RP will have unlimited 1080p.We've already moved to the RF Mount in my office, with the C70 and EOS R being our primary b-roll cameras. Our photographer uses an R5 already as well. Additionally, like I said about the R3 option, we far prefer the smaller form factor of the EOS R and R5 to a gripped camera when using a handheld gimbal, so the 1DC would just be adding even more weight/volume over the R3 even.
I took that to mean an optional EVF that can use the hot shoe like the M6 Mark II.Modular, to an extent. EVF probably not what everyone is expecting. Sounding like this will be more like an XC10 with RF mount than C70 or R5 style. Time will tell.
Tentacle sync is expensive, fiddly at times. You need real time code.Sony's FX3 is $3,900, so hopefully the R5c also comes in under the $4k mark. It really should, as it seems its only improvements over the R5 are unlimited record times and the electronic hot shoe. Timecode is already pretty accessible with something like tentacle sync.

The 4khq beats the a7s3 4k easily. There is no need to answer the a7s3. If you see the reviews the complaint was overheating. Most of the reviews said the 4khq was betterI'd rather have it perform better in lowlight when shooting 4K than a higher resolution such as 8K. Canon needs an answer to the A7S III / FX3.
Must be his first time.I won't count on that, I'm pretty sure it will be more expensive than the R5
"I need a cheap 8K FF video camera! Why should I pay for a mechanical shutter?"What about the photo features will it have the same photography features as the R5, or will it cripple photo features?
