Canon announces the EOS M50 Mark II – Still has a 4K crop and no IBIS

October 14, 2020 by John Aldred 1 Comment

Canon has today announced the new EOS M50 Mark II mirrorless camera. Not much appears to have changed on the outside between the original Canon EOS M50 although it’s had a few significant enhancements on the inside, including improved Dual Pixel CMOS AF (but not for 4K) and Eye Detection AF.

For vloggers, there’s a new vertical shooting mode, and it now has a clean HDMI output signal for when you want to feed into a capture device on your computer for live streaming – although it’s also compatible with Canon’s webcam software. But it still has no IBIS and, it still has that crop when shooting 4K video.

Impending EOS M50 Mark II is confirmed and latest specs leak shows no IBIS

October 5, 2020 by John Aldred 5 Comments

Despite rumours that Canon is planning to kill off their APS-C EOS M mirrorless camera product line, the impending release of the Canon EOS M50 Mark II has been confirmed according to Nokishita, who tweeted a few days ago that it’s been added to Canon’s latest product list.

There have been rumours about an M50 Mark II for a little while now, but so far we hadn’t seen any solid specs. Now, Canon Rumors is reporting a new specs leak that looks pretty enticing for EOS M shooters – and potentially a worthy replacement for the dead EOS 7D DSLR series for some photographers.

Could these be the specs to the Canon 7D Mark II’s EOS M mirrorless successor?

August 19, 2020 by John Aldred 2 Comments

Not much has really happened with Canon’s EOS M system since they went full frame with the EOS R, despite Canon saying that they’re committed to both formats. There have been rumours about new ones coming this year, although there’s still been no solid news as of yet and we’re 2/3rds of the way through 2020 already. Then there’s the reported death of the EOS 7D DSLR line.

Well, a new set of specs has just appeared on Canon Rumors, which they say may be for an upcoming EOS M50 Mark II or “an M camera above the EOS M6 Mark II”. Could these possibly be the specs for the mythical EOS M7? The rumoured mirrorless replacement for the EOS 7D Mark II DSLR?

Is Canon announcing a new flagship EOS-M7 APS-C mirrorless camera in 2020?

August 6, 2020 by John Aldred 25 Comments

With 2020 rapidly approaching Q4, there isn’t much time left for manufacturers to announce new cameras this year. But with the pace at which new ones have been announced over the last few months, it wouldn’t surprise me if there were a few more yet to come. And according to a report on Canon Rumors, it looks like there are.

CR says that they’ve received multiple reports over the last few months that a pair of EOS M cameras are coming in 2020, and recently they’ve received some information on what these cameras may be. According to the rumour, we can expect the EOS-M50 Mark II and a new EOS-M7 flagship model.

Canon to follow up the EOS M50 with a Mark II update in 2020

July 17, 2020 by John Aldred 1 Comment

Canon’s popular EOS M50 was released only a couple of years ago, and we spoke with Canon about it when we were at The Photography Show back in 2018. But now it looks like we might see an EOS M50 Mark II coming at some point this year. Or, at least an announcement.

Canon Rumors reports that there’s a higher-end APS-C camera coming to Canon’s mirrorless lineup and they’ve been told that it will be an EOS M50 successor. But while the announcement may come this year, it may only be for Japan right now. The rest of the world might not see it until 2021.

Two new Canon EOS M cameras rumoured for release in 2020

November 19, 2019 by John Aldred Leave a Comment

Despite the introduction of the full-frame EOS R and EOS RP cameras, Canon isn’t giving up on its APS-C line of EOS M bodies, as evidenced by the release of the EOS M6 Mark II and the EOS M200. Rumour has it, though, that there are a couple of new ones expected to be released during 2020.

At this early stage, the specs need to be taken with a grain of salt, but one is suggested to be a Mark II successor to the EOS M50 (or perhaps a new M60), while the name of the other is currently unknown.
