The Canon EOS R6 Mark III will be the next full-frame camera from Canon, and it will be a massive launch for Canon. Things have been fairly quiet about the camera for the last couple of months, but it was rumored to be announced later this month.
We currently haven’t heard any update about a launch date, but if it is indeed coming at the end of May, things will probably become clear in the next little bit. However, it doesn’t feel as though the EOS R6 Mark III is imminent.
Another claim of specifications has appeared on Weibo, from a person with mixed success in the past. These are third-party specification claims, and we cannot confirm any of the information provided.

Summary
These specifications are from a third-party, so we can’t confirm any of the rumored specifications above. There was no confirmation of when we will see the EOS R6 Mark III announced, but we and everyone else hope it comes in the next month or two.
We don’t think the current economic situation will affect the launch of the EOS R6 Mark III, though we were told that it could possibly delayed, we just don’t think that’ll be the case.
As always, these are rumored specifications. So, shake the saltshaker.

Would be nice to have it finally on the market :S...
Other specs would make me stay with my R6m2.
But I suppose, me and other Mark II users are not the main target market. 😉
🤔
Might be too early to try to guess a price tag before we have any certainty on the spec sheet anyway
There's no escape, you'll have to buy it! 😛
No, don't even think of arguing!
It might even have the same specs as whaat's in the R3 but they are just being respectful of the feelings of those who plucked $6K to purchase the original R3.
What do you think the next “V” camera might be? Pipedream: R5cIIV (Roman Numeral Trainwreck).
That "Roman numeral train wreck" made me really 🤣
About the pipe dream: better don't bet a cent on it.
I initially thought they wouldn’t do it because they didn’t in the C80, but the Z6III is certainly pushing the envelope.
All these specs on a stacked sensor check all the boxes for me. Going to be an awesome camera for sure.
I doubt this applies for the r6m3, but my experience with mirrorless cameras is I'm much less dependent on the top LCD with the information available in the EVF. Not saying anyone is right or wrong, just my personal preference.
