WHAT IS THIS on the leaked Canon R1?? #canon #canonrumors #cameras

It's clearly a gas station pump. Users have complained for years that the fuel door release button wasn't clearly labeled

[marsastronaut]

It's a Transfer images to FTP server ( File Transfer Protocol ) icon .

It's a modified "Hospital" button for when you see the price of the camera!

[JohnDrummondPhoto]

That symbol is for file transfer protocol (FTP). The button's actual function? I have no idea.

[NoName-rgnp]

It’s a villain from an old school Atari 2600 game 😂

It’s the film rewind button. Optional high cost accessory!

[swistedfilms]

It kinda looks like a building. Maybe it creates a tilt-shift effect so that your lines are straight? Kinda niche I know, but that's all I can really think of.

An insider told me that it’s a “heat dissipation” button. You press it when you get the warning and it triggers a tiny propeller to spin and help cool it.

It’s blue so I think it’s a review/editing button. It’s going to be used to cut video clips into smaller clips. It will also be able to be custom assigned as anything.

Almost looks like some kind of indication for NFC tapping with a phone against the camera.

[tommydraws]

A few guesses:
A follow focus motor mode
A gimble mode switch
A pixel shift dedicated button
A hot shoe accessory button

At first it looked, to me, like a side handle with shutter button. Something you could attach and enable.

[fondfarewell]

Its probably an auto focus shortcut. Face detect, car detect, so on.

It's the gas tank Icon, so when batterie start getting low fill her up. Lol

[mrcoachjason]

It summons Inspector Gadget to help you with all the other settings, just like OnStar- but for the R1 only. You get what you pay for!

[NoThankUBeQuiet]

Maybe dont worry about it. Youll find out eventually

[ChopsticksGarden]

I'm a developer, and that icon looks familiar.

[TheFarmoon]

It's the side of the camera where the gas tank is. Duh.

[bjchid]

That's the button to access your subscription services.

[mcrider]

Obviously a digital fish. When you want to shoot under water just hit that button.

Server connected to a network. I hope some sort of near realtime backup to a cloud service. Or a droid from star wars holding a staff.
