Chronology

SuccessorCanon EOS R5 Mark II

The Canon EOS R5 is a professional full-frame mirrorless interchangeable-lens camera officially announced by Canon on July 9, 2020[2] alongside the lower-resolution EOS R6 and various new RF mount lenses. While it is not a direct successor to any of Canon's previous mirrorless cameras, it does have clear improvements and advantages over the EOS R, namely: a new DIGIC X processor and sensor, 8K video capture, a new autofocus system, and the ability to take videos with 10-bit colours.[3] The camera is available as body only, or with the Canon RF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM lens.

On July 17, 2024 Canon announced a Mark II version, with a new BSI sensor and increased frame rate, among other improvements.
