Posted on by

Canon Europe’s YouTube channel teases that Canon will will have a new product announcement scheduled for Wednesday, January 19, at 07:00 EST / 12:00 GMT / 23:00 AEST.

The latest Canon Cinema EOS System release is coming and it will be “Ready for Anything.” Prepare yourself and stay tuned for more information on January 19, 2022 at 7 AM EST.

Hosted by Ram Sarup, Pro Video Product Specialist at Canon Europe, attendees will get a first look at this innovative new camera and the opportunity to hear about its ground-breaking new features.

The Canon EOS R5C, a video-oriented version of the Canon EOS R5, will be probably announced on that day (January 19, 2022).

Canon EOS R5C Rumored Specifications:

  • 45mp full-frame sensor (Same as the EOS R5)
  • DIGIC X
  • IBIS
  • Canon Log 3
  • Canon Log 2 is still being discussed
  • No Internal NDs
  • Unlimited 8K30P recording in Cinema RAW Light. XF-AVC and MP4
  • Timecode in/out
  • The same multipurpose hot shoe as the EOS R3. Which will work with accessories such as the Tascam XLR module.
  • Active cooling
  • 3/8″ or 1/4″ mounting point on the EVF for a top handle that won’t interfere with the hot shoe.
  • Full-size HDMI Port
  • The LCD has been moved further back to accommodate the cooling fan. So this likely means that it won’t recess into the body like the Canon EOS R5.

It seems that the Canon EOS R5C will be an improved R5 derivative camera for movies, and it will be in a position like Sony FX3 and Panasonic LUMIX S1H. The price is unknown at this time, but it is said to be considerably cheaper than the Canon EOS C70, which is currently priced at $5499 USD.
