Canon EOS R3 sensor resolution to be 45mp?
- Thread starter Canon Rumors Guy
- Start date
I tend to agree, if it were 45mp then why not 8k? I am not a tech guy, but would BSI have anything to do with lack of 8k? Doesn't seem so but I don't know.
Canon took the time and energy to issue a statement that the sensor would be designed and manufactured by Canon. Why the secret about sensor resolution? Seems strange...
Please, Canon, no! Leave some advantages for R5! I want to be less tempted 
Both the Sony Alpha 1 and Nikon Z9 have BSI sensor and both are capable of 8K shooting.
Hey maybe I was right when I said we won’t know until we open the box
We keep talking about it........
30 megapixels would already be a big step down from the 18 megapixels I currently have, but 45 megapixels would be very bad. If they do that, the have to cut the price by a lot.
I do not care about 8K but I care about 45mp. If it were 45mp I would be angry because .... I would have to spend money to get it
Because Canon controls the narative. CR was wrong about the R5 and most likely the same about the R3. The R5 surprised all the rumor sites.
Canon took the time and energy because Sony fanboys were trying to negatively impact the R3 buzz. And the internet negative buzz was getting quite anoying. With the resolution held back until opening ceremonies. Unless photographers agreed to not disclose Exif data
CR coverage of R5 seemed pretty good to me, and now that i have one it seems pretty good to me also...
July 23rd will be my bet that photographers using the R3 at the Olympics will make suttle mentions of the resolution via Exif data or other means.
I tried that with some images I was pretty sure were taken with the R3, UK Royal Family at the Euro Soccer Finals, but all the camera EXIF had been stripped.
I am sure the real reason why spectators are banned at the Olympics is the fear that information about the R3 could leak. Canon is a main sponsor

I like this rumor better.
Must make it true, right?
45 MP is so nice for small birds.

The people who wrote off the R3 because they 'need' 45mp are quaking right now
I am checking Jeff Cable's blog twice a day lol for Olympic information, right now the topic is getting 26 covid test before he can get in , and they are getting plenty of rain.
Perhaps Canon don't want people obsessing about 8K like they did with the R5 and want to add extra shock and awe when they officially announce the R3 with 45mp and 8K.
I would have thought that such a professional sports orientated camera will have 20-30mp though.
