It seems like everyone is trying to get a mirrorless camera to store shevles these days; of course, the advantages of this type of camera are numerous. And Canon has taken notice of the growing demand for such a market. Canon is designing a compact mirrorless to be released in 2012, according to Reuters, but the company itself confirmed the existence and imminent release of the new shooter. The camera would be aimed at the prosumer and professional set, allowing photographers to capture DSLR-quality images with a much smaller device. At CES 2012 in January, Canon spoke about its plans for a mirrorless model, stating that the miniaturization of the camera and a re-imagined lens system are top priorities. Retailers suggest a mid October release.

Product Details

Canon's first mirrorless camera features some pretty nice specs for the price. Dropping $800 gets you an interchangeable-lens shooter with a professional image quality and semi-professional control over the settings. It's a lot of bang for the buck, so it's great for prosumers, but it would also make an excellent sidekick for photographers and journalists that try to travel light.

  • Canon Plans to Announce Two Important Cameras in June

    In addition to a few updates to its point-and-shoot family, Canon will announce the features, specs and names of two important cameras in June, reports Canon Rumors. Perhaps the most anticipated of the two is the company's entry into the mirror-less-camera game. The other seems to be the EOS 650D. Photography Bay seems to believe it's the successor to the Rebel T3i, which we have known as the Rebel T4i.

  • A Few Details Regarding The Canon Mirror-Less Camera

    Actually, it's not one camera. Canon is working on two mirror-less camera models, reports Canon Rumors. One model features a 14MP sensor, and the other features a 24MP sensor. There's an electronic viewfinder only on one camera, so it sounds like one of these cameras will be significantly more powerful (and more expensive) than the other. Expect about 5 lenses to be available when the cameras launch.
