It's important to note that all of the people opining that Canon will not release a successor to the R are, in fact, just stating an opinion. Also an opinion is that Canon rushed the R out the door to ward off competition, as proof of concept, to sell RF lenses, or other conjecture that stems from collective herd opinion on forums and elsewhere but has been substantiated nowhere by Canon itself.

In short, nobody knows nuttin except those who work at Canon and have knowledge of the history and planning of the company's mirrorless cameras.

Bookmark this thread to see whether the forum prognosticators were right a year or two down the road.

Well I definitely understand that people would get the impression that the R was rushed out the door, that thing was awful when it hit the streets. Canon eventually got it to not be a total embarrassment after several firmware updates. There’s a good reason the price dropped so far and so fast.
