An announcement date rumor of next week for the Canon EOS R5 is making the rounds, but it doesn't look like it will come to fruition.

According to a German retailer, you will be able to “Experience the new Canon EOS R5 live on May 16, 2020”, which unfortunately doesn't mean what we had hoped it would. Foto Hamer has clarified what the event actually is.

Hi guys, you could see the content and info about the live streams of the Testival Online. This is NOT the official presentation of the EOS R5 by Canon! It's a LIVE workshop with a Canon product expert on the Canon R series and in this framework, it presents the previously known information of the R5 There will be no demonstration of the camera and, in our knowledge, will not publish any information that is not yet known. Nevertheless, the workshop is of course exciting.

I don't think we're going to get an official Canon EOS R5 announcement next week, but that could obviously change.
