Canon announced the launch of several new products which include a camera of 8K resolution. A nice feature here is that a simple switch allows the Canon EOS R5 C to perform as a still camera having a similar performance as that of the EOS R5 mirrorless camera or that the Cinema EOS System Quality.

At its core, the EOS R5 C features a DIGIC X image processor capable of internal recording of 8K/30P RAW video, which goes up to 8K/60P RAW video when connected to an external power source. The camera otherwise comes with the Canon full-frame CMOS sensor that comes with 45 million effective pixels.

Canon said the EOS R5 C camera is all set to be available starting April and will be priced Rs. 3,99,900.
