Oh I’m sorry you can delete my posts, didn’t think of this that someone would go and bother him, I hope nobody will do this!

Its all good.. it was inevitable.. the forum gets a lot less eyes.

I was hoping the card cover would give an indication of dual CFEX cards but no such luck.

Its dual cfe.

Its dual cfe.

As I would expect. The million dollar question is does it take advantage of the newly release CF Express B 4.0????

Its dual cfe.

i wonder if canon has gotten better about heat management for the CFE card. The card i use for R5 gets real hot. Imagine having two of them 1 mm apart.

So many sport photographers here to celebrate a 30MB rolling shutter camera in 2024.

So many trolls here to incessantly post the same, dull drivel.

Is there a 30MB global shutter camera out there? Please end me a link...

Yes, R1 should be fully support 4.0

If you squint you can see the micro HDMI port!

For me it is really not a question of support. I can use 4.0 cards in Z9 and R3 both of which were released before 4.0 cards were available. Let me rephrase. Will using a 4.0 CF Express card in Canon R1 provide better buffer performance vs. a 2.0 CF Express card?

I realize that we likely will not know the answer to this question until the official release announcement with full specifications. Might even require indidvidual testing to get definitive results and / or a thorough read of the R1 owner's manual.

and USB-B 4?

These are legitimate questions I have asked, I file this under "finest of details that rarely leak."

I will buy it if it’s on par with the other flagships. And yes, I’ve got the coin and wait patiently for final specs. If it’s 30MP-ish, my budget is probably going elsewhere. And yes, I’ll continue to whine about it!

Start shopping elsewhere.

Professional sports photographers (and other disciplines) that are Canon shooters are a massive part in what a 1-series camera becomes. They are directly involved with the direction that the line takes, always. Not what the other companies are doing, not the internet, not YouTube, not forums.....

I'm sure users of the Z9 have absolutely no problems with it. it's easier to deal with a rolling shutter than it is bad DR and cooked raw file noise removal that makes your camera look like it's a 12MP one.

I would imagine that easy to do thing (so I'm told) called material science will be a factor in this. In theory, the much larger body of the R1 would allow them to shunt the heat away from the CFE cards and keep it away from the sensitive electronics.

without a doubt. Canon resisted making the 1D series higher MP's in the past simply because the photographers told them they didn't want more.

I agree and it is obvious why!

Canon finally put a battery percentage on the LCD. I have only wanted that for about 15 years.

Right! Back then, Magic Lantern implemented it for my 60D because Canon either couldn't or didn't want to do it

The newer cards reportedly run a lot cooler than the 2020 vintage of cards.
