This article has been percolating in my mind for a while now, and as I got further into the various designs and Canon’s mentality, it became more of a synopsis of Canon’s methodology to date. The RF system has been very disruptive to Canon in terms of switching the mount and also the ergonomic design [.

Canon is apparently looking into building continuous LED lights into the pop-up flashes on DSLR cameras, something that could come in handy for certain situations when shooting photo or video. Canon News first reported on the development after it was spotted in a patent (2019-056787) filed by Canon over in Japan. The patent describes a […] petapixel.com »

I’m beginning to think that Canon Electronics does a lot of really cool things. As you may have remembered, they are also partnered up for Japan’s private company launch facilities, rocket and satellite programs. canonrumors.com »

While the EOS Rebel T7 and EOS Rebel T100 may not have lit the ethusiast world afire, Canon robotics just might. I spotted this guy while visiting customer service at Canon Canada today. The choice of using the EF 100-400mm f/4. canonrumors.com »

In the next week or so, we’ll be seeing the announcement of at least 4 lenses, an EF 85mm f/1. 4L IS as well as three new tilt shift lenses, a TS-50mm f/2. 8L Macro, TS-90mm f/2. 8L Macro and a TS-E 135mm f/4L Macro. canonrumors.com »

Great news Canon lovers. That new 5D Mark IV you just bought won’t be limited to the manufacturer firmware for too much longer. It seems the talented hackers at Magic Lantern have already managed to break into the new camera. petapixel.com »

Canon released their financials for the fiscal year of 2024, and from an imaging and overall company outlook, Canon looks to be doing strong. All indicators are good. Canon is not doomed. Before we delve into imaging, which is always the hot topic here, there were other things to note that are near and dear [.
This should make the camera world happy. Canon will re-enter the compact camera segment in 2025 with the PowerShot V1. It will be a real compact camera and nothing like the PowerShot V10 that we initially assumed it would be.
Canon released the RF 50mm f1. 4L VCM, 24mm f/1. 4L VCM, and 35mm f/1. 4L VCM, and there have been hints that more is coming. This patent application (2025-015010) shows the RF 24mm f/1. 4L VCM. However, other embodiments may come out in the future.
We have been told that Canon is going to introduce another PowerShot V series camera. Back in May of 2023, Canon introduced the PowerShot V10, a new form factor vlogging & streaming camera. We have no idea how well the PowerShot V10 did sales wise, but Canon is bringing out a higher-end V series camera [.
In this patent application (2025-011796) we have several embodiments of ultra wide angle lenses that would be power zoom capable. They are all inner focus lenses as well. It could be that Canon is thinking about making, yet again, another ultra-wide angle, and this time with more of a video focus, or this is in [.
We are starting to get more details released on the Canon RF 16-28mm f/2. 8 IS STM, and while we’ve already given out our patent overview and MTF comparisons, more details are never bad. It should be noted that pre-production versions of the lenses have gone out to the usual reviewers, so I do believe that they are not [.
I missed this patent. In my defence, I looked at it and went. . meh, Canon doing ANOTHER Ultrawide? At the time, this was before the now likely trinity of f/2. 8’s IS STMs were forming, so I can be forgiven (maybe) for that judgment call.
