I have been told that both the Canon EOS R5 and Canon EOS R6 will not begin shipping until July at the earliest. It's likely we'll be getting low initial quantities of both cameras as well.

There are obviously delays attached to the COVID-19 pandemic all the way through the supply chain.

I expect both to be announced before then, and I was told today that the EOS R6 was still scheduled to be announced in May.

As for the official Canon EOS R5 announcement? I can't see Canon dragging it out another 60-90 days, that would crush the hype train that they've been building, as there is not much more to tell us about the camera besides very specific specifications and price.

More to come…
