The list of specs is very well tamed for a rumor. Excited to see what Canon will offer up.

 

[SebastiaoSal]

I can see this coming in at $1999.

 

[Stig Nygaard]

Sounds like very realistic specs. So not unlikely, but at the same time very easy specs to make up ;-)

But looks like a great camera to me if true ...

 

[COBRASoft]

32mp seems like a nice balanced resolution for a crop sensor.

 

[Hector1970]

Specs round about what I would expect. 32MP would be good. But of course we know sports professionals don't want any more than 20MP.
I wonder what they will do to make it worse than the R3. Will it's focus tracking abilities be worse. If they left out eye control AF that would be fine.
I'd guess it will be priced at $2500 - 3000 ie: overpriced.
It will be a nice camera with the 100-500mm Lens

 

[Dragon]

My bet is R5s will be first with similar pixel density and an APS-c shooting mode. See who bites on that and then decide if R7 is worth all the peripheral hassle re APS-c lenses. Along with either one will come the new RF 500L.

 

[Inspired]

Make it a full frame and it's perfect.

 

[Bob Howland]

Any word on whether it has a mechanical shutter? 32MP APS-C is 80MP FF, which seems like a nice number for an
R5S.

 

[speg]

I’m torn. I want to upgrade from the Rp and R6 seems like a dream. Should I wait? Action and reach are important to me. I think I should wait. I must wait. Arrrrgh.

 

[navastronia]

I can see this coming in at $1999.

I think $2399 is far more likely given recent price increases.

32mp suggests that it's using the same sensor thats in the 90d+m6mk2. Would be a bit disappointing to see a 3 year old sensor used in the R7.

 

[entoman]

I take this wishful thinking list with a massive pinch of salt. I'll believe it when I see it.

But, IF these are the genuine species, and IF it's got R5/R6 build quality, and IF the price comes in below £3000, then I WILL put in a pre-order.

It is described as a BSI sensor ( => Back-illuminated and most likely stacked sensor)

IF this is a sports/ wildlife camera, I don't think the readout speed of the 90D sensor would be fast enough to keep rolling shutter artefacts acceptable.
Besides which, the 90D doesn't have a BSI sensor.

 

[AccipiterQ]

I'm building a time machine just to go into the future and be the first person to pre-order this....

Crop sensor 32MP??? BSI??? Oh my goodness.....I could weld my EF 600iii to this body and never take it off for a decade.

I don't think 90D has a BSI sensor.

R5 rather than R6 interface please. If the 4K is real and not an up convert and there are no insane crops for the video and has IAF I would be very interested in this camera.

If those are the specs, and it has R5 build quality and a new BSI sensors, it will rival the R5 in price. We had better wait for the gray imports...

Sounds pretty well specced. I hope they come out with a more modest R70 at about the price of an RP.

Hopefully a full readout downsampled 4K. I'd be all over it as a backup for my R5.
