7D Mark II is 20.2 MP. The full frame equivalent should be 51.7 MP (45MP is about 17 MP crop).

Anyone that switched brand because of a 1/3 of a stop of sensor DR advantage, deserves no respect
They obviously can't make it as good as on mirrorless, and it is ineffective to use with the optical viewfinder.
But would still be a big deal to have all those EF lenses enhanced, which are still way more popular than other mounts.
I mean, if they come out with a 5D Mark V, there should be a feature to make it sell well at a high price.
But maybe the R5 sensor with Digic X coupled with the renewed AF system, faster cards and possibly an articulating screen is enough for the target audience.
Maybe yes, maybe not. R5 will have much better handling than R undoubtedly but it will not be 100% the same with 5 series. Due to the flip screen and the less camera depth they have less space so they put less buttons. Having used many 5 series (and one 7) I prefer their handling than my R's. Plus I trust them more.Mirrored 5DV with flip screen and better sensor would be very nice. Would I buy it when I see Canon is putting all efforts into the R line? I don't know. If they announce it right now, before the R5 release, I'd be confused. But if they ever announce it, it'll be long after the R5 release. And I'll have bought either R5 or R5s by then.
That is, the market for 5DV shrinks significantly after the R5 release.
I am with you on that. I would love a 7DMarkIII (preferably without an AA filter). A totally new sensor would suffice. Everything else is just fine.7D Mark II is 20.2 MP. The full frame equivalent should be 51.7 MP (45MP is about 17 MP crop).

The current 200-400 L has one built in already. I think can still manage to shave off someThe RF 70-200mm does not accept tele extenders, which probably helps make it smaller.

Canon never used 2D and 3D for obvious reasons and "4" has a bad connotation in some cultures.

Yes, I have seen the pictures. More buttons than the R, less than the 5DIV.I realise there may be some sacrifices because of the flip screen but still I guess the R5 should be pretty close to the 5DIV because it's a standard for 5-series cameras of Canon. The R wasn't in that category.
I've shot action/concerts with my 5DIV as well as landscapes, so I do like the OVF too. But because I'm shooting more landscapes and less action, I care less and less about the OVF.
At the same time nothing can prevent Canon from putting the R5's sensor and DIGIC X into 5DV and release it in 2021-2022. I just doubt they'd do that. Shrinking market, less moneyz on RnD etc.
Why doesn't it look as durable as 5D? We only saw it on promo pictures.
Despite all the hoo-ha, mirrorless is still relatively new for most people and Sony have only (relatively) recently offered serious competition to Canon with the A7IV and the A9. The market is still turning, not 'has turned'. This is why IMO they persevered and released the 1Dxiii and I would be a bit surprised if a 5DV did not appear. .
It seems people keep forgetting approximately half of the ICLC market is DSLR. I don't think Canon is just going to say nah we don't need that half of the market. We will give that to Nikon. I realize the DSLR market is shrinking but 50% of a market Canon dominates is nothing to sneeze at.
But 5D line isn't a big part of that market. Because there's R5 announced already, we're talking about those who need all the same specs but with OVF. Not too many people I guess.I don't think Canon is just going to say nah we don't need that half of the market.
Have you noticed that Sigma lenses are lower in cost than similar Canon lenses?Actually I'm more interested in a 50mm F/1.4 -- I think it's safe to say there's been technological advances in the last 27 years that leave room for improvement on the current EF F/1.4.
Sigma released one 6 years ago that weighs 800g and goes for under a grand -- this is what I'm hoping for in an RF mount.
Yep. They'll release 5DV if they have resources and think it'll be profitable. The R5 is better than a prospective 5DV in all regards, except some (small) percentage of customers who prefer OVF specifically. Before the R5 announcement, the 5DV rumour seemed to be plausible, currently it's not.
I'm not saying nobody needs 5DV. I'm saying(guessing) the market for it will be too small.
We were elaborating on the prospective weather sealing. Less buttons possibly means easier to seal?Yes, I have seen the pictures. More buttons than the R, less than the 5DIV.
Why should the R5 sensor be worse than that of the 5DIV, which by the time the R5 comes out will be almost 4 years old...?If R5 is worse than 5DIV, it'll be more than a stop difference between the R5 and the A7RIV.
But most importantly, I don't seek respect for being loyal to a brand. If Canon were paying me, maybe. But currently it's me who pays Canon. So it's Canon who should respect me as a customer and release cameras with good dynamic range.
