We have been told that Canon still has plans to update its most popular professional full-frame camera, the EOS 5D Mark IV.

The EOS 5D Mark V apparently appeared on an internal roadmap, along with an EOS R Mark II, the source did not provide the timeline of the roadmap.

We think it makes a lot of sense to see another iteration of the EOS 5D DSLR, along with a similarly specced EOS R Mark II.

With all of the new cameras expected in 2020 from Canon, I don't see either the EOS 5D Mark IV or EOS R replacement coming before Q4 of 2020.

  1. I just swallowed my coffee the wrong way! Ok, I can hold onto those EF lenses a bit longer. Oh, how I fretted they'd be paperweights by now. :rolleyes: Actually, crow tastes ok if you marinate it in enough hot sauce for a day, then get drunk before eating it with rice.
  2. Who knows maybe the 5D V will have RF mount. And better maybe when you go on liveview you'll have a LCD instead of the black Viewfinder.
    You forgot the mirror. The RF lenses focus is shorter than that of the EF lenses. the 5D therefore can not have RF mount.

    And what do you think the R (Mark II or not) is? The RF mount and a reflex mirror are mutually exclusive features, that’s the whole point of the R system.

    A Canon Rumors guarantee: in every rumor thread someone will ask for a rainbow unicorn.

    Yes you are right. Can't be RF mount. If they make a DSLR/mirrorless it should have EF mount!
