Okay, if possible, I would love to know if anyone, here at UHH, can identify this camera. Sorry about the very limited photo!

The “Professional Photographer” claims that it cost her $9k and her lens was $5k! I am disputing this with my girlfriend!

Thanks in advance!

If you doubt that the camera costs $9k, I am on your side of the argument.
I have no idea what camera it might be, and will follow the thread hoping to find out.

Not a <current> high end Nikon or Canon.
The FWD-BACK or LEFT-RIGHT buttons are odd.

Medium format digital cameras will run you $9k or higher, just google the 102MP FUJIFILM GFX 100. The image above seems to be another model, but is still likely to be a medium format camera. It would seem your GF is going to be the winner in this silly argument.

I immediately recognized its layout and buttons as a Canon. It is the back of a Canon R. Here is an image of a Canon R that I cropped similarly to the image you posted. I also am posting the entire rear panel I cropped it from. The Canon R is currently selling for $1800 on Adorama. The camera you posted looks grey in color, the image I attached is also grey but a bit darker. I believe the grey color of your image, and the one I posted is just a result of lighting and exposure as the actual camera is much darker and closer to black.

I believe this is a Canon R Mirrorless body. See my post with images just above this one.

Thanks, that didn't show up on my search.
Gotta love search engines......
Was looking for over $2k.

Why would anyone exaggerate the value of their camera and lens?

It was easy to identify for me because I recognized the M-Fn bar (multi function bar) next to the viewfinder. I watched several video reviews of the Canon R camera when it was first released.

All artists are willing to suffer for their work, but why make it worse with a cheap camera?

I was surprised you didn't recognize this body. You always seem to be on top of all things Canon.
