Much has been made of the overheating time limits of the Canon EOS R5 and R6 and the fact that the overheating timer can be bypassed with seemingly no ill effects. But Canon has now gone on the record to confirm that they did not intentionally hamstring their latest mirrorless cameras to protect other camera lines from self-cannibalization.

Hot on the heels of Canon’s EOS R announcement, Fujifilm has just announced their new camera, the X-T3. It's the first APS-C sensor size mirrorless camera that records in 10-bit internally. We were lucky enough to get our hands on a production model to check its video capabilities.
