- 1Ds are more than just specs. They ergonomics, build quality, and dependability. So, dunking on a few specs, fine. Especially if Canon gives the 1DX III users a few things the R5 doesn't have (better weathersealing, battery life, shutter life, autofocus, autofocus and autofocus, etc). Plus, if Canon wants to appease the current 1D users but then get everyone else to transition to an R...this does make sense to me.
Agree, but there also comes an inflection point where pure horsepower actually can trump the unspoken things that make the 1-series so great.
A 45 x 20 FF mirrorless body -- even in an underfeatured EOS R sort of setup -- will absolutely erode 1DX3 sales to some extent.
