Update: The latest information shows a 26.2mp sensor in the EOS RP.

We’ve been sent an unconfirmed specification list for the upcoming Canon EOS RP. We have this rated as [CR1] as we have not been able to confirm this information from the usual folks.

Canon EOS RP Specifications:

Camera weight is 400g (440g), the lightest full-frame mirrorless camera ever

(440g), the lightest full-frame mirrorless camera ever A side-articulated monitor and a comfortable grip

A new 24MP CMOS sensor . 26.2mp sensor

5FPS

USB-C and headphone jack are available. Battery charging while shooting is

supported

Canon Log, HDMI clean output, and 1.56x 4K crop

Battery: LP-E17

Price is about $1300USD for the body (We’re really hoping it’s priced this aggressively)

Keep in mind that pricing can sometimes be lost in translation due to currency exchange. $1300 is really aggressive for a full frame camera. Earlier rumors pegged the camera at $1600 USD and we’ve also heard $1500.

We’re told that the Extension Grip EG-E1 is a 1cm thick “plate” to be installed under EOS RP. It makes a better grip to hold the camera while the memory card and battery can still be removed.

We’re also told that Canon will also announce 8 RF lenses. (5 have already leaked). I haven’t been able to confirm the additional 3 lenses, but it’s possible we get a few development announcements.
