EOS Magazine published their interview with Mike Burnhill from Canon Europe. Here is the recap from CanonRumors:
Talking about DSLRs:
AA: Will Canon be introducing more DSLR cameras?
MB: Yes. Canon still sees demand for all sorts of cameras – including DSLR and mirrorless – so we will continue to produce across multiple product lines. We’ve only just phased out the EOS-1 film camera because there were still people buying it in certain markets, and we will see the same with the DSLR cameras.
Mike addresses a question about an APS-C EOS R camera, something we feel is inevitable.
AA: Which brings us onto APS-C with the R system…
MB: Yes, the system could support it, but again it’s not a priority because we have the M, and what we need to fill out is the lens range for the EOS R full-frame.
I’ll over analyse what Mr Burhill said about future EOS R system cameras.
AA: Do you see a full-frame camera coming in at a price below the RP?
MB: Yes.
AA: And a pro version before the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo?
MB: Well, that’s the million dollar question…
