EOS R: Canon’s Full Frame Mirrorless, To Be Announced Sept. 5th

The Canon EOS R has been thoroughly leaked — with both photos and specifications of the camera and new “RF” lenses made available.

We can look forward to a 30.3mp full-frame mirrorless with an new “RF” lens mount. EF and EF-S lenses can be mounted with an adapter. A Dual-Pixel CMOS AF system supporting over 5,000 AF points with a range of EV -6 to 18 is one of the most highly touted features; other highlights include an adapter system which supports drop-in filters (one filter for your entire existing EF lens lineup!) and of course the small size and low weight. At 580g, this weighs in somewhere between a Rebel-class and 77D/80D body.

We’ll be watching this closely with the rumored announcement on September 5th. We’ve setup the Canon EOS R page. From that page, you can sign-up for notifications for pre-order opportunities, as well as the inevitable street price that we’ll have on this long-awaited and game-changing offering.

Instant Rebates DECREASING on Sunday — Lens Prices Going Up

Canon’s current instant rebate program will be adjusted this weekend, with many rebates decreasing on Sunday, September 2nd. This translates into a $20 to $100 price increase on many popular lenses, see the list below.

Prices will be on an upward swing for at least another month, perhaps two — we expect another price increase by the end of the month. This is historically normal — prices go up through the end of the summer, and usually don’t come down again until the holiday sales in November.

To take advantage of the street prices from authorized Canon USA dealers below (beat the increase!) please ensure your orders are entered today.
