BY July 10, 2026 New Gear

Two Canon mirrorless cameras without lenses on an orange background, showcasing front lenses and grips.

Canon has done something bold. Rather than trying to build one camera that does everything, they’ve built two cameras for two very different creators. The Canon EOS R6 Mark III is designed for photographers who occasionally shoot video. The Canon EOS R6 V is designed for filmmakers and content creators who occasionally take photos. While they share Canon’s latest imaging technology and outstanding image quality, these cameras aren’t simply different versions of the same body. From the moment you pick them up, it’s clear they were designed with completely different workflows in mind. So […]

Sigma RF Lenses Arrive for Canon: Pro-Level Glass Without the Pro Price

BY March 13, 2026 Lenses

​For years, us Canon RF shooters had a bit of a… problem. We had the glorious EOS R bodies—the R7, R10, R50, and the R5/R6 powerhouse series—but when it came to filling our bags with quality glass, our wallets often felt the pinch.

The seismic shift we’ve been dreaming of has finally arrived. Sigma […]
