According to latest Canon rumors, Canon is planning to announce a new APS-C EOS R camera soon. This camera could be named EOS R8 or EOS R9 and position between EOS R7 and EOS R10.

Canon EOS R8/EOS R9 could possibly see the omission of a built-in viewfinder. Currently not other specs is available yet.  Here are the details ;

Quoting the source :

[…] latest bit of information […] is a new camera body coming that will fit between the Canon EOS R7 and Canon EOS R10 in the lineup from a price standpoint. We don’t think that this is going to be a similar product placement as we had seen with DSLRs and the EOS 77D. We think that the EOS R8/EOS R9 (guessing on the name) will have a different form factor and could possibly see the omission of a built-in viewfinder, but those are just guesses at this point.

In 2023, there will be several new EOS R camera to be announced, see below:
