In what might come as completely unexpected and shocking news to some but comes as absolutely no surprise to most of us, Canon has updated its apology announcement.

Canon has today officially announced the new Canon EOS R8 full-frame mirrorless camera. In appearance, it looks virtually identical to the Canon EOS RP with the lower profile EVF and the same button layout. Internally, however, it’s seen some significant changes. It’s received a very slight drop in resolution, going from 26 to 24 megapixels, but shoots uncropped 4K oversampled video at up to 60 frames per second.

It appears to use the same viewfinder (or at least a viewfinder with the same specs), although the flippy-out LCD has seen a resolution increase from 1.04m-dot to 1.62m-dot. The EOS R8 also sports Canon’s new multifunction hotshoe, allowing you to use it with a broader range of accessories than just speedlights powered directly by the camera. Unfortunately, the EOS R8 does have a tiny battery.
