I'm still waiting to hear about anamorphic options..

We're familiar with it because literal trolls coined it on these forums and it spread from there. Canon doesn't do anything that any other manufacturer of any product does. It's juvenile and inappropriate. Grow up.
Incidentally you're still misusing the word. You can shoot video without 24p or whatever they missed out (and we still don't know why). Not having every option for whatever reason doesn't "cripple" the camera for video, it just makes it less good at it because you can still shoot video (and the same is true of any other example you care to choose).
I don't care about it being expensive. I don't care about its resale value (although I don't see why a robust photo camera should have a lower resale value than a "pioneer" 8k video camera given the same starting price).This is the next camera in the 5D series for Canon and it is being priced "in line" with what the previous 5D series were announced at, with a little inflation (based on rumor...). It is NOT significantly more expensive because of the video specs.
So, if the cost is about the same as any 5D series, wouldn't you rather have the features available if for no other reason than to increase resale value when you do sell it?
It is dissimilar to the end result of exposure bracketing.In this case, by 'basically' I meant 'simplified for the sake of brevity'. I know how it works, but the final result is not dissimilar to the final result of exposure bracketing
Thinking about the same. Was ready to jump ship, but 45MP is good enough. Glad I waited.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...
Video @ 8k/30 has had many commentators wary of what video recording limit it would have due to heat buildup. The menu appears to show no arbitrary time limit (environmental temperatures aside). There would be an additional hardware cost in the camera body for managing that heat. That said, it would also appear to have 47mp unlimited continuous shooting @ 20fps (eshutter without buffering) to the CFexpress card so a benefit for stills shooters as well. Without doing the maths, 8k/30 DCI raw should be approximately the same bitrate as 47mp/20fps.I don't care about it being expensive. I don't care about its resale value (although I don't see why a robust photo camera should have a lower resale value than a "pioneer" 8k video camera given the same starting price).
I care about it having photo functionality that won't be compromised by video-oriented hardware hacks.
$3,999.99999999999....So brave ... so confident .... but most importantly so accurate ...
Canon EOS R5 launch price will be below $4000 USD [CR3]

or it could be that canon had to wait for appropriate research and development which can span years and years, instead of making cameras in the span of a few months in their basements as some tend to thinkJust to play the Devil’s Advocate here, the Cripple Hammer™ shaming (and falling behind Sony in some respects) may be one reason why Canon has finally reversed course and gone “all in” this time. The technical improvements, sure — those in large part are due to Canon having breakthroughs; but, Canon removing their typical product segmentation barriers/protection is all about changing their past behavior that was rightfully scorned by fan and hater alike.
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.

With exposure bracketing, you can break the DR limit or the photo cell.
With DGO, you can only speed up reading of the full DR of the photo cell, potentially introducing artifacts in the transition area between signal magnitudes covered by both ADCs. Artifacts much less noticeable in video unless you pixel-peep it frame by frame.
not necessarily .. how would do it? if it was 4K oversampled, it wouldn't be raw. it would either have to be lineskipped or perhaps 1:1 pixel readout which would be like a 2.3x crop factor.Does the R5 not have 4k RAW? It wasn't in canon's specs in the presentation, only 8k raw. Very odd
How would you mount EF-S lenses? AFAIK the adapter supports EF lenses only.
Sell those EF-S lenses and invest in some RF glass

Granted I do feel they have put a more concerted effort into this release, but a lot of it could have been last minute - for instance, they may have decided to do 8k, but had it nerfed at the start, only to add in more later because much of the enhancements may have simply been firmware.
The absolute collapse of USA DSLR sales, and the rise of the startling sales of the M50 even in the USA I think changed opinions fast on mirrorless. I have seen some numbers on this, and I wish I could write up something on it - but it surprised the heck out of me.
It's pretty silly that Canon still makes a distinction between PAL and NTSC video modes. All of the frame rates should be available on the one menu without having to switch between them.
I guess the question I had was more along the lines of "if the other features are video related or "video-oriented hardware hacks," will they affect you as a photo shooter?I care about it having photo functionality that won't be compromised by video-oriented hardware hacks.
