Canon EOS R3 sensor resolution to be 45mp?

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.

Well now it's confirmed at 24mpx. Pretty underwhelming...

I was all in on buying an R3 but after hearing the MP I will wait on the R1.

You are not alone my friend, and with us many many others…
More waiting… ‍Canon is challenging it’s users on a scale beyond belief.

Imagine Canon is now building the R1.. and you bet they are. The R1 will be at least 45 mpix. And at least 30fps. Less would be unacceptable with the R5 having a 45 mpix sensor.

Imagine the R1 hitting the market next year. What would the R3 still be worth?
Exactly.. not much. So I ain’t buying it.

All together this is a sad period in Canon’s product development history. The R3 will be considered outdated the minute it is launched I’m afraid.

Just crossing my fingers Canon is able to launch the R1 asap before Sony does an A1 mark II with 60mpix and 50fps or whatever epic specs..

Imagine if Canon released a 50 MP 5-series camera, then released a new 5-series camera with only 30 MP, then a 1-series camera with only 20 MP. Would that be unacceptable?

45MP R3..... when pigs fly.

The Z9 is the only reality.

The R1 if 80+MP will be the best selling camera in photographic history for professionals

Except for every Canon, Nikon and Sony entry level camera ever launched. And almost every P&S camera ever launched. Lol, you sound more foolish and asinine with every post.
