According to CanonRumors, Canon will make a big splash at the NAB show in Las Vegas next April, such as the Canon Cinema EOS C200 Mark II, and launch a new C700 series camera before IBC in September.
The news reveals that the Cinema EOS C200 Mark II has a different form factor and slot between the Canon Cinema EOS C70 and the Canon Cinema EOS C300 Mark III. The naming of these cameras has not been confirmed yet, and we use the C200 Mark II and C700 as temporary names.
From the parameters given in the leak, the Canon Cinema EOS C200 Mark II will have.
The same Super 35 4K DGO sensor as the C70 / C300 Mark III
RF mount
Support for shooting up to 4K 120 fps
Cinema RAW Light, XF-AVC and MP4 recording options

Freely interchangeable sensors, with two offerings at launch: a Super 35 5K global shutter sensor and a full-frame 8K DGO rolling shutter sensor
Both sensor blocks are equipped with Direct RF mounts, allowing EF or LPL mounts to be mounted on top without having to remove the RF mount (the entire mount can be fitted on top of the RF mount and mounted to the camera)
