So if this price guesstimate is close to the mark, it would equate to selling a kidney in Australia )-:
All I wish for is an EOS body that can fire around 7 to 10 frames / second with decent low light performance down to better than ISO 40,000 and a limitless or at least very large JPEG buffer. The 90D is not bad but to only be able to fire 5 seconds of shots before the buffer fills is absurd. I take my 750D out on weekends and usually end up with 6,000-8,000 images to sift through by Sunday night because for sports I will often just keep the shutter pressed down for several minutes at a time - it never fills the buffer on JPEG's but it has worn the shutter out 4 times whilst under warranty. Interestingly I can easily shoot 8,000 pics on 2 standard Canon batteries too - try that with a mirrorless. It's shameful that the 77D and 800D do not have a battery grip available. It smacks of deliberately forcing customers who like a meaty grip to have to buy an 80D or bigger if they want a battery grip. All the hype around the R5 seems impressive especially the IBIS which would be a plus for non-IS EF lenses but personally for me, all the video niceties are as useful as a one-legged man in a bum kicking contest... just saying.
