According to its limitations (written you know where in specs) - not working in video, not working in manual assist etc. - it's more like DPAF plus IBIS-assisted sensor shift.It does have QPAF, it's just called cross-type DPAF.

For some, yes.I don't know, but are those features worth the premium over the R3?
Thanks,We had a copy of the specifications but the format was horribly trashed i will look to see if i can find that for you now though.
edit:
Mechanical / 1st-curtain Electronic shutter:
1/8000th sec – 30 seconds, in 1/3 or 1/2 -step increments
Electronic shutter:
1/8000th sec – 30 seconds, in 1/3 or 1/2 -step increments (1/16,000th possible, if user-set in Tv or M
shooting modes)
X-sync Speed Mechanical Shutter: 1/200 sec.
Elec. 1st-curtain: 1/320 sec.
any word on how the dynamic range will compare to R3 or R52? or what about maximum raw file bit depth (i think the R3 was 14-bit)?
Still don't understand why this is not just an R3 mark II. Unless Canon really wanted the R1 name in the lineup and a future R3 will have global shutter sensor or something radically different.
The auto focus improvements including cross type alone are significant. it's a much faster sensor, better EVF, better AF. I'm not but if it is superior to the R3 in almost every single way what more would you want?Really hope we’re all missing something here. Very unimpressed
Is it worth upgrading from R3 to R1 ?
I get that but it feels like the R3 could have had all these features in an upgrade. Resolution is underwhelming.because the R3 isn't a 1 series camera.
that means something to canon and there's a lot in the R1 that isn't in the R3.
The R1 sits at the top of the lineup.
DGO capabilities, 16 bit raw, faster sync speeds of at least 1/500, 32mp, built in ND, and the new lcd screen like Sony or Nikon.The auto focus improvements including cross type alone are significant. it's a much faster sensor, better EVF, better AF.

Craig informed me that his R3 suddenly stopped working and needs an R1 replacement.

I would agree, but DGO would be neat if it did/does work well in photo mode. R3 already does extremely well with back lit subjects while maintaining the highlights and bringing up the shadows in photos. That would only enhance it imoDGO I am still not convinced would work well in a stills environment.
The resolution was never a 1 series thing.
Canon does need an R1s though for that very reason
