Without fanfare or so much as a press release (yet), the Canon EOS Ra camera has officially been released. The specially-designed astrophotography camera is Canon's first full-frame mirrorless camera "dedicated to deep sky and night sky photography."
Earlier this month, Canon promised to add 24p video recording into some of its most recent cameras like the mirrorless EOS RP and the Canon 90D DSLR, where the feature was conspicuously absent. Today, Canon began to deliver on that promise by releasing this update for both the EOS RP and the 90D.
Canon has more-or-less confirmed what many had hoped, and rumor sites had already been reporting: in-body image stabilization (IBIS) and dual card slots will both be included in the "high-end" EOS R model that the brand is "considering" (read: has in development).
If you own Canon's EOS R or EOS RP, download the latest firmware for your camera ASAP. As of last night, Firmware Ver 1.4 and 1.3 for the Canon EOS R and Canon EOS RP, respectively, have been released, boasting improved overall autofocus performance, enhanced Eye and Face Detection AF, and more.

With the release of the 61MP a7R IV, Sony officially raised the resolution bar, eclipsing Canon's 50MP 5DS and 5DS R DSLRs. But according to a new report, Canon may soon reclaim that crown and re-enter the "spec wars" in a big way.
Prior to Canon releasing its first full-frame mirrorless camera, I wrote an article discussing how Canon will dominate the mirrorless industry. Many of you made fun of the title, which was fair enough; the comments did make me chuckle.

Canon's $2,299 30MP EOS R was its first full-frame mirrorless camera, but it has long been reported that it's a middle-tier camera and that entry-level and pro-grade models are on the way.

The Canon EOS R is cause for controversy. After all, we’re in the middle of The Great Mirrorless Camera War.

After weeks of speculation and a big picture and spec leak yesterday, the wait is finally over -- the Canon EOS Rebel T4i/650D has finally arrived. Since the T3i release last year wasn't anything to write home about, Canon have really tried to make the new rebel worth an upgrade, and they've done this mainly by introducing an upgraded AF system, capacitive touchscreen LCD and Movie Servo AF that works with the new STM lenses, which also debuted today.
