Canon confirms EOS M system is not dead after all

Last month, when Canon announced the EOS R50, the world (including us here at DIYP) thought this was the final nail in the coffin for Canon’s EOS M APS-C mirrorless camera system. It’s been dying for a few years, with little-to-no updates and not really any word from Canon about what was happening with it. And the EOS R50 does look very much like an EOS M50 Mark II successor.

It appears, though, that the assumption was wrong. In the recent interview with Photo Trend at CP+ 2023 – the same one where Canon confirmed the EOS R1 was in development – they quite clearly stated that the EOS M system is not dead. At least, not as far as they’re concerned.

Canon confirms EOS R1 flagship on the way (eventually)

While Canon seems to have abandoned plans for an EOS R5 Mark II – at least for now – it hasn’t forgotten about creating a new flagship. Rumours about a hypothetical Canon EOS R1 have been around for years. While many thought the EOS R3 would become the new Canon flagship mirrorless camera, Canon has denied that this is the case. But we are still waiting for Canon to announce the EOS R1.

In an interview with Phototrend at CP+ 2023, though, Canon has said they haven’t forgotten about the EOS R1. Although there’s been no solid release date – or even a vague release date – Canon says it’s in development and will be coming… eventually. I suspect we may not hear even a hint of an announcement until either the very end of this year or early next year in anticipation of the 2024 Olympics.

PhotoTrend sat down to have a chat with Nikon’s head of UX Planning, Keiji Oishi, at CP+ 2023 to talk about Nikon Corp’s imaging division. There are a number of topics touched on in the interview, but of particular interest are hints that a full-frame version of the Nikon Z fc – essentially a mirrorless version of the Nikon Df – is probably on the way at some point.

As always, Nikon isn’t committing to anything, but the Z fc and its reception by the camera-buying public were discussed. Also discussed was the fact that ever since the Z cf was released, Nikon has been hearing people wanting a full-frame version. And he says that Nikon has been listening!
