Canon has not yet revealed the price tag of R5. This camera would compete against Nikon’s 45-megapixel Z7 that is priced at about $2,500. We can expect the Canon EOS R5 price tag will come in similarly around the $2,500 mark, or possibly a little bit higher.
We expect to see a Canon EOS R5 release date somewhere around early summer.
