And what is the max frame rate at 1080p?

Can you provide a source for your info please? It seems to be pretty different from anything I have seen yet and I am curious if you are basing it on speculation or if there's a place where one could read up in what you are saying.Unfortunately, that's wishful thinking.
DGO is not bracketing. It's ADC speedup, using 2 amplifiers and 2 ADCs instead of 1 amplifier and 1 ADC to digitize the charge from the same pixel. It would be good for 20 fps at base ISO, provided that the rest of the camera can cope with the resulting data throughput... the problem is that if you are going to shoot at 20 fps, you will usually want to freeze action, so you won't be doing it at base ISO. So, those extra bits of DR in the light signal (to convert into digital) just won't be there.
Global shutter could be nice for slow-sync flash at any shutter speed, but the existing global shutter designs reduce the DR at base ISO by one stop. People that want to use this camera to shoot landscapes won't be happy.
Besides, both of them generate extra heat and increase battery consumption.
So brave ... so confident .... but most importantly so accurate ...

No, it's just internet stupidity.I thought I remember reading it was a management shakeup at Canon that helped lead to this new R5 mindset – a shakeup related to the bad image Canon had of intentionally feature-limiting their products and losing best-in-class performance status (perceived or otherwise). I think it was the "nanny-limiting" of features that earned Canon the Cripple Hammer™ ridicule more than the tech limitations like crop-4K.
Take it with salt:
4K HFR modes (50 - 120p) are achieved using 2 x 2 pixel binning. It's a relatively elegant solution because there's no line-skipping involved. The image will be very soft with lower moire and lower noise compared to other subsampling methods
Without the Cripple Hammer™ shame, there never would have been a full-blown R5, there would have been an R5 that was just good enough.
Oh, did the 1DX have 20 FPS electronic shutter, IBIS, eye AF (apparently even for animals), great base ISO DR, a swivel screen and an option to be used without the massive vertical grip? I wasn't aware of that. Quite impressive that Canon sold such solid mirrorless tech in an ancient DSLR and nobody noticed!If you're in the market for a video camera that must be great.
Meanwhile the perhaps-affordable R6 isn't any upgrade over an eight-year old 1DX for actual photography. Canon hasn't forgotten how to segment the market...
This really looks like a great camera in so many ways. I'm wondering now if there's any point in waiting for an 80MB version. 45MB is virtually the same as what the 5Ds does, and seems like plenty even for architectural or landscape...
Curious that you suggest unshark mask. Usually you're so into sophisticated and sometimes pretty off the rails approaches to things, I would have thought you'd recommend some nice deconvolution based sharpening method that only gets rounded off by usmJust add some contrast enhancement, some extra colour saturation and a final UNSHARP MASK filter on all your chosen/exported video frames and you have Newspaper-and-Magazine suitable image quality for your action shots!
I do suggest that you get the FAST f/1.2 50mm and 85mm RF glass that Canon is selling OR for longer reach, put on the Sigma 150-to-600mm Sports Zoom lens using the Canon EF-to-RF Adapter! You WILL BE A VERY HAPPY CAMPER!
Once Canon makes an f/4-to-f/5.6 L-series 135mm-to-650mm RF-mount super-zoom, then all bets are off and Sony and Panasonic are DEAD in the water!
Wasn't shouting .... copy and paste from a Canon Rumors article from May 26th .... Headlines for new articles are always presented in bold characters.No need to shout. See you thursday.

Edit: to clarify, I am specifically talking about the statements about DGO. The parts where it involves two ADCs and amplifiers as well as that it generates heat (to a degree that that's worth mentioning. Obviously electronics do it to some level).

if you have 5 product lines versus 13 product lines, how you define and spec products will be entirely different.

yes I hope they add 2.5k, 3k, 4.5k, 5k, 5.5k, 6k etcJust amazing! I wish R5 has resolutions between 8k-4k.. like 5k, 6k, etc and also WS options to choose. I don't think we will see that... but as a last option you can do it in post at least.
Is it possible that this sensor is their new 8K sensor that might be used in a flag ship cinema camera like a c700 mk II. In terms of resolution and framerates options it beats all their cameras. It steps on the toes of of the cinema line up for film making and music videos.
U can rig all that up seperate and save thousands. You dont need all that on the camera to make a proper film. Get a couple of these cameras and get a sound guy and you can make a decent film with a low budget. you have plenty of guys using black magic pockets 4k and 6k these days doing narrative work because of the codecs, price, and size. One of the reasons cinema cameras didnt have the same sensor also could be the megapixel difference. 4k is only 8mp. c100 all the way to the c500 had the same MP sensor i think. who is buying an 8mp( actually like 11mp) stills camera? I have a cinema camera. I understand convenience , budget, and necessity. Every job doesnt need the biggest and best camera.it really doesn't, yes on paper sure it beats anything that does not have the same specs, but anyone who has used an actual cinema camera knows nothing else comes close for real production work. Cinema cameras are so much more than specs on paper, everything from the form factor to the rigging options are like night and day vs a MILC or DSLR. Exposure tools, audio tools, timecode jamming, onboard ND filters, XLR inputs.....you won't get any of that with an R5 and those are the tools you need for higher end production jobs.
I also doubt they would use the same sensor in their cinema cameras, I suppose it is possible for cost savings, but I don't think they have ever used the same sensor from their hybrid or photography lines in their cinema lines but I could be wrong.
