Should be any day now. It was originally slated for today but I would think that has already passed since it's already Friday in Japan. Should be very soon though unless there are some COVID delays in getting enough inventory distributed around the world.

It was streamed live here in Europe.

Usually bunch on selected photographers raving about how great it all is (the tracking worked perfectly [tracking a swan on a black lake]) . I will await real reviews but find the R6 interesting, providing higher ISO is cleaner than current models (I know Canon, this could be the same sensor they already use in the RP

) but I am hoping it is closer to the 1Dx line.

Luckilly the f11 teles will work with both TC's...

I'm going to end this thread and let the EOS R5/R6 thread that I just started with both announcements be the official place to discuss these exciting new cameras.
