Canon Rumors just patched the R8 Mark II sheet again — two days before the rumored September 15 New York date. Body price is now $1,899 (was $1,799). €1,879 stays. Canon is calling it “fully” weather-sealed. Ships late October / second half of October.

Still a leak, not a Canon store page. CR says these bits are confirmed and that the surprises are done.

Canon EOS R9? Cheaper Full-Frame Under the R8 Mark II Rumored for 2027

Canon Rumors’ latest: the EOS R8 Mark II may not be Canon’s cheapest full-frame. A second body — CR is calling it the EOS R9 for now — is “said to be coming at some point in 2027.”

Name is a placeholder. Confidence is low. CR: not putting any level of confidence into it, just that it seems plausible. The picture is an unofficial RP-with-an-R9-badge mockup, not a leaked camera.

Canon Rumors says these are the first real EOS R8 Mark II photos — a Reddit dump that looks like FCC / certification shots, not Canon ads. CR: “These images are 100% real.” Still not an official reveal.

Yesterday’s mockup is the one people called “too Sony.” This set has EOS R8 Mark II printed on the top plate.

EOS R8 Mark II Leak Sheet: 7.5-Stop IBIS, 20fps Pre-Shoot, No Mechanical Shutter

Canon EOS R8

Canon Rumors just dumped a full EOS R8 Mark II leak sheet — still unofficial, still tied to September 15 in New York. This is the spec update after the IBIS / same size / ~$1,800 story, not a new launch date.

The headline adds: 7.5-stop IBIS, no mechanical shutter, 20fps pre-shooting, and a 3D video from 2D mode Canon Rumors cannot explain yet.

Canon’s Next High-End PowerShot Is a Departure From the G7 X Mark III — Larger Sensor, Under $1,000

Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark III

Stop sketching a G7 X Mark IV. Canon Rumors now says the next higher-end PowerShot is a “departure” from the G7 X Mark III — and that it will not resemble the G7 series in a lot of ways.

This is a different camera from the entry-level PowerShot already in the rumor mill. Canon supposedly has five unreleased bodies coming; at least two are PowerShots.

Canon EOS R8 Mark II Locked In for September 15 — IBIS, Same Size, About $1,800

Canon EOS R8

Mark the calendar. Canon Rumors now says the EOS R8 Mark II lands on September 15, 2026 — depending which side of the planet you are on.

This is no longer a vague “sometime in September” rumor. The same update also claims Canon kept the R8’s size and weight, finally added IBIS, and will ask about $1,800 for the body.
