There are still surprises in store for the Canon EOS R5 announcement [CR2]

[Canon Rumors]

I have been told that there is one “major new feature coming in the EOS R5 for photographers”, unfortunately, I’ve spent the last couple of days trying to find out what that means with little success.
We have seen some bold marketing claims in the past, so I don’t want to get too exciting, but Canon has definitely kept the stills photography crowd wondering what’s coming in the EOS R5.
I wish I had more, but July 9, 2020, isn’t too far off, so we’ll know by then as the worst-case scenario.

The speculation will keep us busy until the 9th

 

[Max TT]

As if I wasn't excited enough!

 

[TheSalvatore]

Hmm... Could it be having Pixel Shift function same as the Sony?

“major new feature coming in the EOS R5 for photographers”

Free for the first 100 callers!

AI trickery perhaps? Whatever it brings, I have to say, so far... if the hype lives up to expectations, the Eos R5 will be the most interesting mirrorless camera to date.

Not a feature, but would absolutely love seeing a development announcement for a 5D Mark V with the promise to throw everything they can at it as a statement for their last DSLR.

 

[Nilo]

I'm scared

 

[R1-7D]

I pee'd a little.

 

[SV]

I like surprises

Multi-shot mode that is actually useful in that it works with flash (unlike every other mirrorless camera) making high resolution stills a very useful studio features rather than a headline grabbing/clickbait spec.

No idea about what this could be! Maybe some claims on higher DR that matched some of the other modern sensors? Although that would apply to video as well

 

[Chaitanya]

Probably something with AF.

I was wondering what they were holding back , there has been a lot about the video side and not much on the photography side , now we know they have been holding back some info , makes the 9th a bit more to look forward to .

I thought exactly the same ! let's hope that is something more than this, but is already fine

Price under 3500$?
Eye-AF like my old Eos 3?
Not face, but eye-AF?
Continuous burst rate?
something like HDR-mode for low noise?
wireless live usage as an webcam?

 

[peakartimages]

I hope it is a new Dual Gain Output Sensor

 

[gbc]

I hope the surprise feature is a sub-$3000 price tag...

or better video than coming Sony A7SIII with 8k and more MP?
