It’s been quiet on the EOS R6 Mark III front. This time of year tends to be that way as companies are trying to sell you everything that they actually have to sell you. We’re also seeing a lot of big discounts on the EOS R6 Mark II and we’re told that we may see further discounts some time in December. The usual stock purge and volume sales to get those year end numbers up so Canon can prepare their “We sold more than you” press release early next year.
Last week we were told that the EOS R6 Mark III is “definitely” coming in Q1 of 2025, with the obvioius showcase coming for CP+ in late February, Canon tends to announce something decent for a show on their home tuft, though that hasn’t always been the case and Canon has waited until soon after such a show to make a major product announcement.
There will also be at least two lenses also announced in Q1 of 2025, though we’re not mentioning those until we’re confident in what we’re being told. One of the rumored lenses has not been mentioned on this site as of yet.
Specification wise, all we have heard have come from sources with spotty records, one directly sent to us and another from Weibo. Specifications reported that far ahead of announcement are to be taken with the proverbial grain of salt.
We think it’s safe to expect the 24.1mp sensor from the EOS R3 featured as Canon moves most of their lineup to stacked sensors. We’re also expecting the EOS R6 Mark III to get a CFexpress card slot.
Another bit of information told to us is that the EOS R6 Mark III will have something new with Bluetooth control, though there wasn’t any specifics given to us.
Apologies that we can’t say much more than this, but there will be more coming in the next little while.
