Canon is expected to launch a Cinema version of its wildly popular EOS R5 mirrorless camera. The announcement should come in the second half of the year with delivery perhaps in late 2021 or early 2022.
The EOS R5C should have no cooling 'problems' of the EOS R5 and may be a bit larger for those who prefer a slightly better grip but not add the extra battery grip. It may retain the same sensor as the R5 and will be just as capable with still photography as well as advanced videography, replete with C-Log 2
The cameras I am looking forward to review and possibly buy are the highly anticipated Canon EOS R1 and EOS R7. Hopefully it will be announced before the EOS R5C.
The Canon EOS R5 and EOS R6 full frame mirrorless cameras plus a lineup of lenses and accessories will be announced during a LiveStream event on July 9, 2020.
You will be the first to be informed by Canon ambassadors and experts about our largest product launch to date.

All new 40+ MP full frame CMOS sensor
5-axis IBIS (In Body Image Stabilization)
About 5 stops with IBIS, 8 stops with IS in lens
12 fps with Viewfinder, 20 fps with Live View
Signature scroll wheel in back of camera (finally)
Despite the challenge posed by the Coronavirus pandemic, Canon is expected to launch the much anticipated prosumer EOS R5 full frame mirrorless camera in the month of July as well.
The less expensive, consumer version will be known as the EOS R6, with the following rumored specifications :
