A very wild guess, the R3 will come in not one, but three sensor sizes: R3a 24MP, R3b 30.1MP and R3c 45MP...

This along with battery life and ability to work in poor weather.Quite a lot of wildlife photographers prefer 1DX cameras for their durability.
Not all wildlife are birds.
Why only three? Why not 20, 24, 30, 36, 45, 61, 90 mp ?A very wild guess, the R3 will come in not one, but three sensor sizes: R3a 24MP, R3b 30.1MP and R3c 45MP...
Personally, it would be meaningless to buy 1dx3I can understand why people with an R5 or a 1DX III would be disappointed.
It makes upgrading less desirable.
I am deciding between getting an R3 or a 1DX III so I do not mind at all.
Heck, there are 26 letters in the alphabet, gives scope to expand later.Why only three? Why not 20, 24, 30, 36, 45, 61, 90 mp ?
But is is still a compromise. If they had all the pro features +45mp, I'm sure they would not complain.This along with battery life and ability to work in poor weather.
less screams on the more megapixel side.There will be sc
Many will be screaming no matter what number it is.
With this being the quiet season for birds in England and the restrictions on travel because of Covid, I need a supply of birds to photo, not another camera. Get yourself an R5 - it beats anything for birding that Canon has ever produced, and let those who want 24 Mpx enjoy what Canon is providing for them.Both, very true. Also, pro wildlife photographers have the time and skill to get closer to their subjects and so need less reach. Shooting a hunting cheater from a safari vehicle is probably a lot closer to a sport shot than my pictures of birds, even birds-in-flight. My doubt is would Canon design this camera for such a tight niche? Would they sell more if it appealed to more types of photographer? I guess they know better than me, and we will find out what they are offering soon enough, (certainly before anyone can order one). Perhaps I am just disappointed that I may not have to save up to buy one and will just have to buy an R5 instead.
Well, a stretchable sensor? I am writing a patent about it!Why only three? Why not 20, 24, 30, 36, 45, 61, 90 mp ?
And that would be a sensible reason not to reveal the resolution.Perhaps this is good news. The R3 can shoot at 24mp for hard core sports pros, but can shoot at quad resolution (96mp) for everyone else
Definitely. It would have to be a significant jump in low light peformance over my R5 to make me what to get a 24MP R3.I was liking 30 ish. 24 seems like a pass for now and wait on the R1 to compare them, but we shall see.
Oh this is just a screen grab from an Instagram story Vanessa Joy posted.It's a mirror image and out of focus. Hope it wasn't taken on another R3.
For me it is important to have a large and heavy body with a built in battery grip. The R6 and R5 only have external battery grips that do not even align properly to the body.
