Rumors point to imminent Canon full-frame mirrorless system launch

01 Sep

Over the past few days, rumor sites seem to have come to a consensus that Canon will launch a full-frame mirrorless camera in the very near future. Canon Rumors and Canon Watch point to a full-frame body called the EOS R, alongside a list of lenses published today by Japanese news and rumor site Nokishita. A list of ‘RF’ lenses rumored to be launched with the system include:

  • Canon RF 35mm F1.8 M IS
  • Canon RF 50mm F1.2L USM
  • Canon RF 28-70mm F2L USM
  • Canon RF 24-105mm F4L USM

Also rumored to be announced soon:

  • Canon EF-M 32mm F1.4 STM
  • Canon EF 400mm F2.8L IS III
  • Canon EF 600mm F4L IS III

Nokishita also suggests that a battery-grip, radio-wave receiver and an adapter (M to R, or “mount” – they say it’s unclear which) will also be announced.

Obviously, nothing is confirmed at this point and rumors are rumors. But we’d be surprised if Canon wasn’t prepping a full-frame mirrorless system amid competition from Sony and now Nikon. What’s your take on this list of lenses supposedly launching with the system? Let us know in the comments.
