Canon EOS R7 Mark II to be Announced in Q3 2025

The current Canon EOS R7

Canon R7 Mark II is coming next year! According to CR, this new camera will be officially announced in Q3 2025 along with two “higher-end” RF-S zoom lenses.

2024 announcement cycle has wrapped up, with Canon introducing several professional full-frame cameras and seven new lenses, including two VR models. Notably, four new L series lenses were launched, featuring the highly anticipated internal zoom 70-200mm and a set of L prime lenses dubbed the Hybrid Trinity.

Looking ahead to 2025, Canon is expected to focus on both full-frame and APS-C sensor cameras. Canon EOS R6 Mark III is anticipated in the first quarter, possibly before CP+ in February. Canon is reportedly planning a significant overhaul of its APS-C lineup later that year, suggesting more than just Mark II updates.

The upcoming Canon EOS R7 Mark II will be Canon’s first APS-C camera with a stacked sensor, potentially exceeding 32.5MP for 8K video capabilities and positioning it as a successor to the EOS 7D Mark II.

Additionally, two non-L “pro” RF-S lenses are set to be launched in 2025, covering a 24mm to 200mm equivalent range. Canon is also developing a new RF-S prime lens, with hopes for a focal length reminiscent of the beloved EF-M 32mm f/1.4. Supply chain challenges may affect release timelines.
