Canon launched and made available for pre-order the Canon EOS C300 Mark III (EF Lens Mount). You can pre-order for $10999.00 at B&H Photo Video or Adorama.
Stealing the show, however, are the additional details Canon made available about the highly-awaited EOS R5 full-frame mirrorless camera. Of note, it is the first camera to feature in-body image stabilization that works alongside the Optical IS in many RF and EF lenses. Here are the additional features announced today:
- 8K RAW internal video recording up to 29.97 fps
- 8K internal video recording up to 29.97 fps in 4:2:2 10-bit Canon Log (H.265)/4:2:2 10-bit HDR PQ (H.265).
- 4K internal video recording up to 119.88 fps in 4:2:2 10-bit Canon Log (H.265)/4:2:2 10-bit HDR PQ (H.265). 4K external recording is also available up to 59.94 fps.
- No crop 8K and 4K video capture using the full-width of the sensor.*
- Dual Pixel CMOS AF available in all 8K and 4K recording modes.
- Canon Log available in 8K and 4K internal recording modes.
- A Canon first, the EOS R5 will feature 5-axis In-Body Image Stabilization, which works in conjunction with Optical IS equipped with many of the RF and EF lenses.
- Dual-card slots: 1x CFexpress and 1x SD UHS-II.
No launch or pre-order date is available yet for this camera, but we’re hoping it’s soon!
I’ve watched the portion of the press conference 3-4 times and they do not state that it will work with the OIS on EF lenses as well as RF, or just RF only. We know the RF mount has additional throughput and do not know if IBIS+OIS is one of them or not.
The press release indicates IBIS will work with RF and EF lenses, but you’re correct that they don’t clarify if it works better with RF lenses (vs. EF lenses).
wasn’t there a poll taken a few months back on how much the R5 would launch for? Do you have a estimated guess? I REALLY hope it doesn’t start at $3499 but who knows!
I think $3499 would be very optimistic, given the video specs they’re touting. I’m gonna guess (and it’s 100% a guess) $3999.
I’m guessing it will be slightly north of $4000… $4199, $4299?
Is there a street price on the c300 miii
