Canon EOS R3 to have a 30mp sensor? [CR1]
- Thread starter Canon Rumors Guy
- Start date
Seems very likely, it is a new generation sensor, so it won't have the MP count of the 1DX III or the much cheaper R6.
I am not sure about the video specs though, would it be able to shoot 6.7K 60p RAW video or limited up to 30p, with 60p in crop mode?
The rumoured C500S is supposedly capable of 8k60p FF video also with a stacked BSI sensor, so maybe it is possible.

What is an anonymous source? Someone who just contacted you and told you that number? If he knows the number, why does he just say "around"?
We already know that it probably does not have 8K, because 4K was mentioned. So it has less than the 39.3 megapixels needed for 8K, which is very good news.
If it has 30 megapixels, the question is if it is worth buying know or if it would be better two save another $2000 or so more and wait another year or so with the R1 with a much better 20 mepapixel or so sensor. How much time or money would the upgrade from 30 to 20 megapixels be worth?

Canon should make a 1 Series computer keyboard for those who type furiously about how these cameras make no sense because it doesn't fit into their world. Weather sealing (for tears) replaceable keys (for repeated CAPS LOCK pounding). The red ring will be around the eyes after hours on CR pushing and professing their singularly held diatribe against lower MP bodies.

If this is true it sounds like the perfect action camera. Smaller file sizes, lower pixel density makes it more forgiving when it comes to focus and shutter speeds, better low light performance. Pair that with an R5 for lower speed situations and you have a perfect kit. Can't wait!

The 30mp sensor seems a bit boring to me. Is this supposed to be an update over the R5? I’m not so sure it is. Can we assume “raw” would have to be a crop, since oversampled 4K would not be “raw”?
This is shaping up to be a pass for me. I’ll wait and see what the R1 brings before making any decisions. I’m in no hurry. My current cameras are pretty awesome.

Seems like a pretty good resolution for a camera that will be capable of 30fps. A reasonable increase over Sony A9, I think this will be a hit for those that like to carry around a brick of a camera. I'm happy with the R5 and the Sony A7RIV at least until I can afford an A1. Either way it will be nice to have options for fast electronic shutters with both Canon and Sony.

Seriously. I saw this headline and immediately wanted to click into the comments section to watch the rage/drama unfold like a guilty pleasure reality TV show. Things have actually been pretty tame so far. I'll check back on this thread later to see if it gets more entertaining.
