I’m going to assume you are being sarcastic, because the alternative is that you really don’t understand optics.Currently there's no FF optics for 85 MPs ;-)

Personally, what would entice me is a high level of customizability, top notch AF for moving subjects, high frame rate and deep buffer, excellent weather resistance, and ergonomics that work for me (which includes the built-in grip of the 1-series cameras, putting a grip on a smaller body is not equivalent ).So if you don't buy a 1D because it's an anvil with a shutter button, but for other reasons, like fps or the builtin ethernet, what would an 83MP need to entice you?
True, but transferring that much date to a smart device has gotta slow things down! Especially if they’re raw files. I can often spend like 2 minutes photographing one subject only to discover I fired off about 200-300 shots!I have had a card fail in the middle of a shoot.... and the dual card saved my bacon.... but if they get backup to a smart device as you shoot working decently, that would be an even better solution.
I wonder if people making this complaint even realize that there are lower resolution RAW and JPEG settings on these cameras? If you're really worried about hand shake or file sizes, shoot MRAW most of the time and full RAW when you need it.
It was necessary to pre-order on time!Currently there's no FF optics for 85 MPs ;-)

Or so some people will surely say.Installed in a camera with 3 year old tech no doubt.
Could be useful then! What about if you’re in an area with no internet though?It just keeps doing the backup of whats on the card till its done, so it doesnt really slow things down.
A crop mode, which I would use most of the time. An 83 Mpx without one and having 100-120 MB files would clog up my computing and storage systems. The 60-80 MB files from my 5DSR are a real pain.I read that article earlier today, so let me phrase my question a bit differently with that in mind: If an 83MP camera would have an 1.6x or more crop function that would give you both 10fps and small RAW/JPEG files, would that eat into 1D and/or 5D sales? For Thoms sake Canon could even bring back the voice memo feature and text-to-speech it.

People who complain about not having 2 card slots are the same people that panic buy 14 cans of spam when a storm is forecast.
Nope, having a second card slot is a risk mitigation for those people. Some people understand risks better than others. That’s fine.People who complain about not having 2 card slots are the same people that panic buy 14 cans of spam when a storm is forecast.
Yes, except for the massive increase in photo storage requirements.
...or immediately go buy French Toast whenever snow is forecast (Bread, eggs, milk)
What if 24Mp is too low and 83Mp excessive?Maybe, but mostly no.
The costs of storage and memory continue to decrease at a significant rate. When you consider that ongoing trend, the actual costs of storage don't really increase at all. It likely still costs about the same to store an 80MP image file as it cost to store a 50MP image file several years back — perhaps even a bit less.
And... for those who don't need or want higher resolution Canon continues to provide lower MP alternatives that are quite fine cameras, too.
No chance, it's dead and buried. 32Mpx APS-C is good.Aps-H crop ???
I believe that it would be paired directly to the cell phone, so no external wifi is needed. Of course, if you are going "to the cloud" you will need external wifi or cell coverage.Could be useful then! What about if you’re in an area with no internet though?
I’ve always liked the idea of plugging an external 1TB hard drive into the side of a camera and storing to that. Like a seagate expansion or something.I believe that it would be paired directly to the cell phone, so no external wifi is needed.

One flaw with this is if you are the type of person who is going to take enough shots to fill the phone (and I do this regularly) in which case you end up filling your backup device.
It would be interesting to see if this will work with a laptop.....
Also, in the Olympics, a lot of 1DX2 shooters were tethered to the internet, so when they took a picture it was automatically sent back to the office where someone else would edit and post the images. Same concept!
If you have the WFT for the 1DS MkIII you can plug low energy use or self powered USB devices into it for storage.I’ve always liked the idea of plugging an external 1TB hard drive into the side of a camera and storing to that. Like a seagate expansion or something.
I agree that there is room for one-slot cameras at the lower end and perhaps in the mid-range. However, the added security of having a second copy of the files is well worth the slightly increased camera cost. It feels more like common sense than paranoia to me.
