Just back from my wildlife photography tour of India. You can follow my travels on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and see my equipment bag and works on MichaelDanielHo.com.
Canon announced the expected entry level EOS RP, full frame mirrorless camera recently and is planning to announce at least 6 new RF lenses in the next few months. You can download the Owner Manual here and read it before you buy. As I mentioned before, unless Canon comes out with an EOS-1 equivalent type of full frame mirrorless camera, your truly has no interest in this line of equipment.
As my readers know, I am waiting for the successor of the EOS-1D X Mark II and EOS-7D Mark II bodies to arrive some time in late 2019. The EOS-80D and EOS-7D Mark II successors will probably be morphed into a single camera. Frankly it's about time. There are too many models in Canon's lineup it is becoming a difference without a distinction.
In my opinion, the should only be four EOS line of cameras - EOS-1, EOS-5, EOS-7 and EOS-R. In addition, the PowerShot line can fill out the remainder. Anything more than that is unnecessary and add more confusion than differentiation.
It is early days yet to speculate on the new camera's features but I am hoping for the following specs for the EOS-7D Mark III. Keep checking back for the latest information :
- Low to Mid 20MP sensor
- Dual Digic 8 processors
- 10 fps (12 fps possible but unlikely)
- 4K+ video @ 30fps and 1080p @ 60fps
- Pop up flash and WiFi. GPS and WiFi more likely
- 2 memory slots, one SD and one CFast (Unlikely. Dual SD more likely)
- AF points to below 100 with more cross-type points
- Increase in high ISO and Dynamic Range performance
- Addition of illuminated buttons on the back panel
