Canon Japan announced more product shortages: the EOS R5 Mark II now may take over six months for delivery

By PR admin | Published: August 30, 2024

Canon Japan updated their previous product shortage notice, and apparently, the new Canon EOS R5 Mark II camera can now take over six months to deliver. This is confusing because the EOS R5 Mark II was in stock on the day of the official release in the US (we already know that companies like to exaggerate demand, even when the product is widely available and in stock):

Despite the reported “product shortages” the new Canon R5 Mark II is now in stock in the US

Nikon Z50 II camera rumors

By PR admin | Published: August 29, 2024

Here are the first Nikon Z50 II camera rumors:

Updated body design
Expeed 7
Flippy screen like the Z6 III
USB-C
Will use the same Nikon EN-EL25 battery
Official announcement: soon (before the end of 2024)
Same 20.9MP DX-format CMOS sensor as the Z50 (not confirmed yet, hopefully my info is wrong, and they will introduce a new sensor – Fuji for example, is already using a 40MP sensor in their latest X100VI camera)

Surprisingly, we have not seen any significant discounts on the current Nikon Z50 model. My guess is that they will kick in next month. Renewed Nikon Z50 cameras are now selling for $658 on Amazon.
